YouTube link: /watch?v=pwA51ktwN2Q Note: In the verse, FM7sus4/C, F6/D, Dsus2, D9sus4 and Dm9/C are the organ's "response" chords, so they can be ommited if you find it too hard (as if, right?). Same thing goes for G6/D, E6/B and A#m7 in the bridge section.

I cannot tolerate my anxiety for the moment

   D5 D5    Dm9/C                           A5 G#5 G5   G5 F5 E5   A#5

  We're fading out of view

I get low with you

  I hate it when we're cruel

Am7                      Am7                G9sus4

Selfish, self-centered and a little bit narcissistic

    A5 A5      Dm9/C                          F5 E5 D5   D5 D#5
And to be ever grateful would be uncharacteristic
