Hello everyone and welcome to my endevour to keep myself sane. I'm going to submit a set
of chords to UG for a great song once or twice a week in an effort to stop myself dying
of boredom during these exam thingys. I've been playing these chords for as long as I've
played guitar (two years...) and so I know for a fact they're accurate.

<B>[VERSE 1]
<!--B>
Oh, life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And you are not me.
The lengths that I will go to,
The distance in your eyes,
Oh no, I've said too much,
I set it up.
<B>[CHORUS]
<!--B>
That's me in the corner,
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion.
Trying to keep up with you.
And I don't know if I can do it.
Oh no, I've said too much,
I haven't said enough.
<B>[BRIDGE]
<!--B>
I thought that I heard you laughing,
I thought that I heard you sing.
I think I thought I saw you try.
<B>[VERSE 2]
<!--B>
Every Whisper of every waking hour
I'm choosing my confessions,
Trying to keep an eye of you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I've said too much,
I set it up.
<B>[VERSE 3]
<!--B>
Consider this, consider this,
The hint of a century,
Consider this: the slip
That brought me to my knees failed.
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around?
Now I've said too much.
<B>[BRIDGE]
<!--B>
I thought that I heard you laughing,
I thought that I heard you sing.
I think I thought I saw you try.

But that was just a dream,

<B>[CHORUS]
<!--B>
That's me in the corner,
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion.
Trying to keep up with you.
And I don't know if I can do it.
Oh no, I've said too much,
I haven't said enough.
<B>[BRIDGE]
<!--B>
I thought that I heard you laughing,
I thought that I heard you sing.
I think I thought I saw you try.
But that was just a dream,
Try, cry, why, try.
That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream, dream.
