[Verse 1]

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-


[Chorus]

Em
  this isn't love
             C                  D 
  Because if you don't want to 
                Em
talk about it then... it isn't love
        C                       D
  And I guess I'm gonna have to live
 with that
          Em                       
  But I'm sure there's something in
            C
 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


[Verse 2]

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..


[Bridge]

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

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


[Verse 3]

Am
  But I'm not going to break
                       G
  And I'm not going to worry about 
it anymore
Am                                
  I'm not going to bend and I'm 
           G
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


[Interlude]

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


[Verse 4]

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


[Verse 5]

        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             
  And every word is nonsense but I 
D
understand and
  G  C     Em            D      
  Oh Lord, I'm not ready for 
               G
this sort of thing


[Verse 6]

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