verse            G             C             G

      I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be

      G    D/F# Em               Bm/D            C

      Too many  bitter tears are raining down on me

          Am            Em                  Am           Em

      long 



w/ verse prog.

      I feel like no one ever told the truth to me

      About growing up and what a struggle it would be

      In my tangled state of mind, I've been looking back to find where I went

      wrong.

      G                C              Em               D

      Torn between the lover, and the love you leave behind

             G/B          C                G/D            Em6/C#

w/verse prog.

      I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be

      And it seems like there's no way out of this for me

      I used to bring you sunshine, now all I ever do is bring you down

and again

      HOw would it be if you were standing in my shoes

      Can't you see that it's impossible to choose

      No there's no making sense of it, every way I go I have to

      lose.



w/ chorus prog.

      Too much love will kill you, just as sure as none at all

      It'll drain the power that's in you, make you plead and scream and crawl

      And the pain will make you crazy. you're the victim of your crimes

      Too much love, will kill you, every time.

w/ chorus prog.

      Too much love will kill you, it'll make your life a lie

      Yeah too much love will kill you, and you won't understand why

      You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul, but here it comes again

      G/D                           Cmadd9

  Quick lesson in music theory:



     9th chord =  1 ,3 ,5 ,b7, 9.



    Thus, F9  = F ,A ,C ,Eb ,G.



    The Cmadd9 chord is actually a down scale, all the notes of which add up

    to make a Cmadd9 chord (C Eb G D)
