I had a dream I was mugged out (F#m)side your (C#m)house.
I had a (E)dream in a pa nic you came run ning
out.
For a mo ment you were sure I’d (F#m)die on (C#m)you.
For a mo ment I be lieved you (F#m)loved
me too.
But life is nev er like this,
and you were nev er strong.
Too much of a good thing,
won’t be good wer for long.
Al though you made my heart sing,
to stay with you would be wrong.
Too much of a good thing,
won’t be good an y more.
I Watch where I tread be fore I fall.
We talk may be twen ty (F#m)times a (C#m)day
(E)and still I nev er say what I (F#m)want to
say.
I thought I would n’t need to.
I guess it read you wrong.
I made a de ci sion,
not to ans wer your calls,
’cause I ev ’ry thing out there
and I got noth ing at all.
Too much of a good thing,
is n’t good and you know.
I watch where I walk be fore I fall,
We talk may be twen ty (F#m)times a (C#m)day
(E)and still I nev er say what I (F#m)want to
say.
be fore I (E)fall.
