A            E         D
If I stand too close I might fall in
         A     E      D
But if I'm too far gone I'll never win
      A      E    D
If you believe in me I might just want
        F#m      E   D
to spend some time with you again
    A     E        D
I'm afraid I tend to disappear
      A    E       D
Into an anxious state when you draw near
        A    E     D
There is no reasoning it's quite a silly thing
          F#m      E      D
But it's the way I've been for years
       A    E     D
So I will understand if you don't stay
        A      E              D
They say I'm great at first but then the magic fades
      A   E     D
Into an awful you of dismal views
  F#m       E    D
and pessimistic attitude

D        A      D    E     D
All this distance years of sweet resistance
D      A    G          D
Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent

     A    E    D
I have apologised a billion times
         A    E        D
When I've gone off the wall like Busta Rhymes
         A    E       D
And pulled a stupid stunt that left you thinking
       F#m     E     D
there was something wrong with me
           A      E   D
you've thrown a few choice phrases at my way
        A      E    D
And I've ignored them all as best I could
        A   E        D
Except that tiny bit how I just can't commit
          F#m    E      D
There is some truth in what you say

D        A      D    E     D
All this distance years of sweet resistance
D      A    G          D
Swirling over head like angry clouds of discontent

      A      E     D
If I stand too close I might fall in
         A     E       D
But if I'm too far gone I'll never win
      A      E    D
If you believe in me I might just want
        F#m     E   D
To spend some time with you again
         F#m     E   D
I spent some time with you again
