Lyrics

She would not (C)show that she was a fraid

but (C)be ing and feel ing a (C)lone was too much to (Fsus2)face.

Though ev ’ry one (C)said that she was so strong,

what they did n’t (C)know is that she could (C)bare ly car ry on.

But she knew that she would (C)be o (F)kay

so she did n’t let it (C)get in (C)her way.

Some times, it (G)all gets a lit tle too (C)much.

But you’ve got to re a lize that (G)soon the fog will clear (C)up.

And you don’t have to be a fraid be cause we’re all the same and we know that some times it (G)all gets a lit tle too (C)much.

She would al ways (C)tell her self she could (F)do this.

She would use no help, it would be just fine.

But when it got (C)hard, she would lose her fo cus.

So take me hand, and we’ll be al right.

But she knew that she would (Am)be (C)o (F)kay

so she did n’t let it (Am)get in (C)her way.

Some times, (G)it all gets a lit tle too (Am)much.

But you’ve got to re a lize (G)that soon the fog will clear (Am)up.

And you don’t have to be a (G)fraid be cause we’re all the (F)same and we know that some times (G)it all gets a lit tle too (Am)much,

(F)yeah.

A lit tle (C)too (Am)much.

I said, a lit tle (C)too (Am)much,

(C)oh.

Some times, it (G)all gets a lit tle too (Am)much.

But you’ve got to re a lize (G)that soon the fog will clear (Am)up.

And you don’t have to be a (G)fraid be cause we’re all the (F)same and we know that some times (G)it all gets a lit tle too (Am)much.
