Am
  My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing."
G
  I am not worried, I am not overly concerned
Am
  My friend implores me, "For one time only,
G
  Make an exception."I am not worried
Am
  Wrap her up in a package of lies. Send her off to a coconut island
G
  I am not worried. I am not overly concerned 
Am
  with the status of my emotions. "Oh," she says, "you're changing."
           G
  But we're always changing. It does not bother me to say- 


Em
  this isn't love
             C                  D                 Em
  Because if you don't want to talk about it then... it isn't love
        C                       D
  And I guess I'm gonna have to live with that
          Em                                   C
  But I'm sure there's something in a shade of grey
                     D
  Or something in between
     Em                      C
  And I can always change my name
            D
  If that's what you mean


Am
  My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing."
G
  But I am not really worried. I am not overly concerned
Am                                                                                
  You try to tell yourself the things you try to tell yourself 
                      G
  To make yourself forget. I am not worried.. 


           Em                           C                D               Em
  "If it's love," she said, "then we're going to have to think about the consequences."
                        C             D
  She can't stop shaking I can't stop touching her and


       G         C                   Em      D           G       C      Em      D                G
  This time when kindness falls like rain It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind
         C                Em               D              G                C
  "These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days," she says
      Em            D                G
  And I'm not ready for this sort of thing
 

Am
  But I'm not going to break
                       G
  And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
Am                                           G
  I'm not going to bend and I'm not going to break
                       
  And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
Am
  It seems like I should say, "As long as this is love..."
G
  But it's not all that easy... so maybe I should
Am
  Snap her up in a butterfly net

  Pin her down on a photograph album
G
  I am not worried

  I've done this sort of thing before
 

Em                    C               D
  But then I start to think about the consequences
Em                       C               D
  Because I don't get no sleepin a quiet room and
 

      G         C                   Em
  The time when kindness falls like rain
     D          G       C      Em      D                G
  It washes me away and Anna begins to change my mind
      C             Em          D    
  And everytime she sneezes I believe it's love and
  G  C     Em            D                     G
  Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
 

        C              Em
  She's talking in her sleep
       D           G
  It's keeping me awake and
  C      Em      D            G
  Anna begins to toss and turn
      C             Em             D
  And every word is nonsense but I understand and
  G  C     Em            D                     G
  Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
 

      C                Em
  Her kindness bangs a gong
       D          G        C      Em      D         G
  It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away
       C          Em
  It's chasing me away
      D
  She disappears and
  G  C     Am            D                G
  Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
