Ebminor F#
VERSE1:REEF 1
my misery has enjoyed company
and although I have ached
I don't threaten anybody
BRIDGE1:
sometimes I feel more bigness than I've shared with you
sometimes I wonder why I quell when I'm not required to
VERSE2:REEF1
I've tried to be small I've tried to be stunted
I've tried roadblocks and all
my happy endings prevented
BRIDGE2:
sometimes I feel it's all just too big to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my bigness could do
[Refrão]
CHORUS:
F#M F F# F
fear of bliss and fear of joyitude
F#M F F# F
fear of bigness (and ensuing solitude?)
[Próxima Parte]
VERSE3:REEF 1
I could be golden
I could be glowing
I could be freedom
but that could be boring
BRIDGE 3:
sometimes I feel this is too scary to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of losing you
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
SPECIAL VERSE: USE REEF 2 OR CHORDS:
Ebminor F# Ebminor F#
this talk of liberation makes me want to go lie down
Ebminor F# Ebminor F#
under the covers til the terror of the unknown is gone
VERSE4, REEF 1.
I could be full
I could be thriving
I could be shining
sounds isolating
BRIDGE 4:
sometimes I feel this is too good to be true
I sabotage myself for fear of what my joy could do
[Refrão] (repetir)
PEACE, LOVE , MUSIC AND FREEDOM. :-)
