Anna Begins Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Drums]
[Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing"
[G]I am not worried,
I am not overly con[Am]cerned
My friend implores me
"For one time [G]only make an exception"

[Verse 2]
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 con[Am]cerned
With the status of my emotions
Oh, she says, "You're changing"
But we're [G]always changing

[Pre-chorus 1]
It does not bother me to say
[Em]This isn't love
[C]'Cause if you don't wanna tal[D]k about it
[Em]Then it isn't love
[C]And I guess, I'm gonna have to [D]live with that
But I'm [Em]sure
there's something in a shade of [C]gray
Or something in be[D]tween
And [Em]I can always change my nam[C]e
If that's what [D]you mean

[Verse 3]
[Am]My friend assures me, "It's all or nothing"
But I [G]am not really worried
I am not overly con[Am]cerned
You try to tell yourself the things,
you try to tell yourself
To make yourself forget,
[G]to make yourself forget
I am not worried

[Pre-chorus 2]
"If it's [Em]love," she said
[C]"Then we've gonna have to [D]think
about the [Em]consequences"
'Cause she can't stop shaking
[C]And I can't stop tou[D]ching her

[Chorus 1]
And this [G]time,
when [C]kindness falls like [Am]rain
It [D]washes her a[G]way
And [C]Anna be[Em]gins to [D]change her [G]mind
"These [C]seconds when I'm sha[Am]king
Leave me [D]shuddering for [G]days"
She [C]says
And I'm [Em]not ready [D]for this sort of thing

[Bridge 1]
[Am]
But I'm not gonna break
And I'm not gonna [G]worry about it anymore
I'm not gonna [Am]bend and I'm not gonna break
Gonna [G]worry about it anymore

[Verse 4]
No, no, no, [Am](no, no)
It seems like I should say
"As long as this is [G]love"
But it's not all that easy, so maybe I should
[Am]Snap her up in a butterfly net
And pin her down on a photograph album
[G]I am not worried

[Pre-chorus 3]
'Cause I've done this sort of thing before
[Em]
[C]But then I start to thi[D]nk
about the [Em]consequences
I don't get no [C]sleep in a quiet [D]room

[Chorus 2]
And this [G]time,
when [C]kindness falls like [Am]rain
It [D]washes me a[G]way
And [C]Anna be[Em]gins to [D]change my [G]mind
Every [C]time she [Am]sneezes, I believe [D]it's love
And [G]oh, [C]Lord,
I'm [Em]not ready [D]for this sort of thing

[Chorus 3]
[G]She's tal[C]king in her sle[Am]ep
It's [D]keeping me a[G]wake
And [C]Anna be[Em]gins to [D]toss and [G]turn
And eve[C]ry word is [Am]nonsense,
but I un[D]derstand
And [G]oh, [C]Lord,
I'm [Em]not ready [D]for this sort of thing

[Outro 1]
[G]Her kin[C]dness bangs a gon[Am]g
It's [D]moving me [G]along
And [C]Anna be[Em]gins to [D]fade [G]away
It's [C]chasing me a[Am]way, she [D]disappears
And [G]oh, [C]Lord
I'm [Em]not ready [D]for this sort of t[G]hing
