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

"If it's love," she said, "then we're going to have to think about the consequences."
C D
She can't stop shaking I can't stop touching her and
G C Em D G C Em D G
This time when kindness falls like rain It washes her away and Anna begins to change her mind
C Em D G C
"These seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days," she says
Em D G
And I'm not ready for this sort of thing
[Verse 3]
Am
But I'm not going to break
G
And I'm not going to worry about it anymore
Am G
I'm not going to bend and I'm 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 D
But then I start to think about the consequences
Em C D
Because I don't get no sleepin a quiet room and
[Verse 4]
G C Em
The time when kindness falls like rain
D G C Em D G
It washes me away and Anna begins to change my mind
C Em D
And everytime she sneezes I believe it's love and
G C Em D G
Oh Lord, I'm not ready for 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 D
And every word is nonsense but I understand and
G C Em D G
Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
[Verse 6]
C Em
Her kindness bangs a gong
D G C Em D G
It's moving me along and Anna begins to fade away
C Em
It's chasing me away
D
She disappears and
G C Am D G
Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
