Chords Losing My Religion - R.E.M. Lyrics
[Intro]
F -G Am
F -G Am G
[Verse]
Am
oh, life is bigger
Em
it's bigger than you
Am
and you are not me.
Em
the lengths that I will go to,
Am
the distance in your eyes,
Em Dm
oh no, I've said too much,
G
I set it up.
Am
that's me in the corner,
Em
that's me in the spotlight
Am
losing my religion.
Em
trying to keep up with you.
Am
and I don't know if I can do it.
Em Dm
oh no, I've said too much,
G
I haven't said enough.
[chorus]
F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
-G Am
I thought that I heard you sing.
F -G Am G
I think I thought I saw you try.
[Verse]
Am Em
every whisper of every waking hour
Am
I'm choosing my confessions,
Em
trying to keep an eye on you
Am
like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Em Dm
oh no, I've said too much,
G
I set it up.
Am
consider this, consider this,
Em
the hint of a century,
Am
consider this, the slip
Em
that brought me to my knees failed.
Am
what if all these fantasies
Em
come.. flailing around?
Dm G
now I've said too much.
[chorus]
F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
-G Am
I thought that I heard you sing.
F G Am G
I think I thought I saw you try.
[bridge]
Am G F G
C Dm
but that was just a dream,
C Dm
that was just a dream.
[Verse]
Am
that's me in the corner,
Em
that's me in the spotlight
Am
losing my religion.
Em
trying to keep up with you.
Am
and I don't know if I can do it.
Em Dm
oh no, I've said too much,
G
I haven't said enough.
[chorus]
F
I thought that I heard you laughing,
-G Am
I thought that I heard you sing.
F -G Am
I think I thought I saw you try.
F -G
but that was just a dream,
Am
try, cry, why, try.
F
that was just a dream,
-G Am G
just a dream, just a dream, dream.
[Outro]
Am
