Too Much Love Will Kill You by Queen
Too Much Love Will Kill You
[Intro]
G C G C
[Verse]
G C G
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Em D C
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
Am Em
I'm far away from home
Am Em
And I've been facing this alone
D
For much too long
G C G
Oh, I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
Em D C
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
Am Em
In my tangled state of mind
Am Em
I've been looking back to find
D
Where I went wrong
[Chorus]
G C
Too much love will kill you
Em D
If you can't make up your mind
G C
Torn between the lover
Em D
And the love you leave behind
G C
You're headed for disaster
Em A7
'Cos you never read the signs
G Cadd9
Too much love will kill you
G
Every time
[Instrumental]
G C G C
[Verse]
G C G
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
Em D C
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
Am Em
I used to bring you sunshine
Am Em D
Now all I ever do is bring you down
G C G
Ooh, how would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Em D C
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
Am Em
No there's no making sense of it
Am Em D
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Oh, yes
[Chorus]
G C
Too much love will kill you
Em D
Just as sure as none at all
G C
It'll drain the power that's in you
Em D
Make you plead and scream and crawl
G C
And the pain will make you crazy
Em A7
You're the victim of your crime
G Cadd9
Too much love will kill you
G
Every time
[Solo]
[Chorus]
G C
Yes, too much love will kill you
Em D
It'll make your life a lie
G C
Yes, too much love will kill you
Em D
And you won't understand why
G C
You'd give your life, you'd sell you soul
Em A7
But here it comes again
G Cadd9
Too much love will kill you
G
In the end
G
In the end
[Outro]
