Enlighten Me

        C
In my mind I write you letters all 
the time
          Am                   G
Somehow I never get the pen to paper
           C
And in my life my words always rhyme
             Am           G
And it's a shame I don't hate her or
 blame her


[Verse 2]

C
Look at that I'm 29
                  Am               
And not much has changed since the 
              G
last time we danced
         C
And I'm good, I'm good I swear to 
god I'm fine
          Am                       
I'm just scared to death to take a 
 G
chance


[Refrain]

               C            Am G
I think you're crazier than me
               C            Am
I think you're crazy as can be
                 G               C
And it frightens me so enlighten me


[Verse 3]

            C
I got your note about the day the 
girl fell --
             Am                    
A five story window I don't know 
  G
too well
       C
And I never wrote you back (can't 
you tell?)
           Am                 
That in my mind the image just 
 G
climbs


[Verse 4]

             C
I spent too long with the wrong 
kinds of men
              Am                
One went to Iraq, came back, but 
        G
fled again
       C
And I think of them - I do, now and 
then
           Am                 
It only reminds me, that's all 
    G
behind me


[Refrain]

               C            Am G
I think you're crazier than me

               C            Am
I think you're crazy as can be
                 G               C
And it frightens me so enlighten me


[Verse 5]

                   C
The things in this life we're 
striving to get
                       Am       
Are the same as those finding us 
              G
fools of regret
             C
I remember clearly the day we met
                       Am        
'Cause your voice was crystal and 
                   G
your hair was so gold


[Verse 6]

                  C
The need for new love — it's loyalty
 to an old
                  Am               
Though I don't believe it's what 
         G
I'm being told
                  C
Remember on the platform we stood in
 the cold?
                    Am             
I wonder how we'll stand it, one 
              G
day when we're old . . .


[Refrain]

                    C         Am G
Will you still be crazy about me?
                    C          Am
Will you still be crazy as can be?
                    G            C
'Cause it frightens me enlighten me


[Verse 7]

                 C
Now who'd ever guess one day we'd 
cross feet
                  Am               
The corner where Houston and Essex 
        G
Street meet
                 C
And who'd ever guess you'd envision 
our kid
                 Am                
In the back of a car drivin' over a
   G
 bridge


[Verse 8]

                  C
I don't know how much more I'll take
 of all this
             Am                  
Do we come apart or do we join at 
      G
the hip?
                      C
Or do we both flip a coin; heads or 
tails — tell me quick —
                  Am            
Heads means let's say tails says 
        G
walk away!


[Refrain]

                C                  
I think you're crazy, I think 
      Am          G
you're crazier than me
                C           Am
I think you're crazy as can be
                 G            C
And it frightens me enlighten me


[Verse 9]
            C
Time passes on and we pick up the 
pen
                          Am       
Though we barely write a word 
                    G
before we put it down again
              C
I'm asking myself ain't the sole 
intention
                    Am             
To be riddled with love without any
   G
 question?


[Verse 10]

                       C
It's time we give the lunatic 
business arrest
                     Am            
You're borderline romantic at worst
    G
 I guess
             C
I made a mistake, I got it all wrong
                 Am             
It's me who's insane but for the 
             G
sake of my song


[Refrain]

            C           Am G
I made you crazier than me
          C           Am
I may be crazy as can be
                 G               C
And it frightens me so enlighten me
