Intro: G B7 Em C D
Verse 1:
[G]I tried to [B7]write a song, and [Em]keep it 3 [C]minutes long
[G]Get in, get out, no[B7]body gets hurt[Em] [C] [D]
[G]I tried a t[B7]housand times [Em] to fit God be[C]tween the lines
But I'm f[G]inding out that d[B7]oesn't really work[Em] [C]
Pre-Chorus:
I [D5]just don't have the [Cadd9]words to say 'cause [C/B]words only get [Am7]in my way
Chorus:
[G]I must [Am7]apologize, [C]I have the [D]hardest time
[G]Finding some[Am7]thing to de[C]fine a God that [D]I cant define
[G]And even [Am7]if I could, [C]it would [D]take way too [Am7]long[Em7]
If [C#m]all I've got's a 3 minute song
[G] [B7] [Em] [C] [D]
Verse 2:
G (pwr) B (pwr) Em C
I've got a hundred metaphors, and if I had a million more
G (pwr) B (pwr) Em C D
I could never ever seem to sum this up
Besides, [G]how can some [B7]melody [Em] communicate [C]eternity?
Its like [G]trying to fit the [B7]ocean in a cu[Em]p[C]
Pre-Chorus:
I'll [D5]never have the words[Cadd9] to say, cause words[C/B] only get in my[Am7] way
Chorus:
[G]I must [Am7]apologize, [C]I have the [D]hardest time
[G]Finding some[Am7]thing to de[C]fine a God that [D]I cant define
[G]And even [Am7]if I could, [C]it would [D]take way too [Am7]long[Em7]
If [C#m]all I've got's a 3 minut[Em]e song
Bridge:
Em Emm E0 A* Asus4* C(pwr)*
I would like to dumb this down to 3 chords, or maybe 4
But I've [C]tried and I can't and I won't cause You'll always be m[C#m]ore
[G]So I ap[Am7]ologize,[C] [C#m]
[G] I can't seem to [Am7]get it right [C] [C#m] OH!
Chorus:
[G]I must [Am7]apologize, [C]I have the [D]hardest time
[G]Finding some[Am7]thing to de[C]fine a God that [D]I cant define
[G]And even [Am7]if I could, [C]it would [D]take way too [Am7]long[Em7]
If [C#m]all I've got's a 3 minute song
[G] [Am7] [C]All I've got's this [D]3 minute song
[G]That's just not that long[Am7] [C]
[C#m]Oh [C#m2]Oh [C#m3]Oh [C#m2]Oh [C#m]OOOOOOOOHHH!
