Tuning:
The Intro – you start of with an open F chord 012300, with your little finger on the
3rd fret B string and you play this riff
e|---0--------|
B|-1---1------|
G|-------2----|
e|------------|
B|------------|
G|------------|
Once you've done this you lift your little finger and begin strumming the intro
[Intro]
F Am (x2) then to the G before the lyrics start
[Verse 1]
G Oh, LAmife is bigger…Em...It's bigger than you,
and you are Amnot me, the lengths that I will Emgo to
The distance in your eAmyes, Em Oh no, I've Dmsa-id too much…… I set it Gup
[Pre-Chorus 1]
That's me in the cAmorner, that's me in the spotEm-light,
Losing my Amreligion, trying to kEmeep, up, with you
And I dAmon't know if I can do it, Em Oh no I've Dmsaid too much, I haven't said eGnough
[Chorus]
I thought that I heard you laFughing,
I thought that I hGeard you sAming….. I tFhink I thought I sGa-w you Amtry
[Verse 2]
G Every whiAmsper, of every waking hEmour,
I'm choo-Amsing my confessions, trying to kEmeep an eye on you
Like a hAmurt lost and blinded fool, fool Em Oh no, I've sDmaid too much…..I Gset it up
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Consider tAmhis, consider this, the Emhint of the century
Consider tAmhis, the slip, that Embrought me to my knees... failed
AmWhat if all these fantasies come, Em flailing around, now I've Dmsaid, too mGuch
[Chorus]
I thought that I heard you lFaughing,
I thought that I hGeard you sAming…… I tFhink I thought I sGa-w you tAmry
At this point the song goes into the mandolin solo, and most tabs
Play this starting on the 12th fret, but it's easier playing it like this
you stay with the Am chord and play this little riff
e|-0-0-0-----------------0-0-0------------------|
B|------3-3-3-1-1-1------------3-3-3-1-1-1------|
G|-----------------2-2-2------------------2-2-2-|

CBut that was just a Ddream. TChat was just a drDeam
[Pre-Chorus 1]
That's me in the Amcorner, That's me in the Emspot-light,
Losing my Amreligion, trying to Emkeep up with you
And I Amdon't know if I can do it, Em Oh no, I've sDmaid too much, I haven't said Genough
[Chorus]
I thought that I heard you Flaughing, I thought that I Gheard you Amsing
I, Fthink I thought I Gsaw you Amtry, but Fthat was just a dream, Amtry, cry, why, try
FThat was just a dream, just a Amdream, just a Gdream, DreamAm
To end you end the verse with an Am chord again and just pick the high E string 7
times, then one downward strum on the Am, repeat this 4 times and end with the
little end riff, still on the Am chord
