Intro:
C G C G
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
Em C
I live with my memories
G Am
The bustle and fervor of New York
Em C
We're on 59th street
G Am
We quarreled and broke the bathroom door
Em C
'Cause you were just drinking
G Am
Drinking til you could hardly see
Em C
Oh how much I loved you
G D
I couldn't bring myself to leave
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
Em C
Our summers in Paris
G Am
The Seine overflowing with champagne
Em C
And I knew you stepped out
G Am
But you knew that I had done the same
Em C
We had a child there
G Am
We couldn't raise her on our own
Em C
So our house got crowded
G D
I never felt so all alone
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
Em G
It's bigger than love
D C
Brighter than all the stars combined
Em G
It's dwarfing the sun
D C
Burning within my heart and mind
Em C
Stranded in Asheville
G Am
Failing to fix a broken head
Em C
We're in California
G Am
Doing the work of lesser men
Em C
But what of our daughter
G Am
What of the love that we once we shared
Em C
It's living inside us
G D
Battered but not beyond repair
B7
F#m G B7
Our fate decry
F#m Em B7
A singularity
F#m G B7
A solemn tune
F#m Em D G
I play a night and dance around the room
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
G C
It's bigger than love
G C
Brighter than all the stars combined
G C
It's dwarfing the sun
G C
Burning within my heart and mind
Em G
It's bigger than love
D C
Brighter than all the stars combined
Em G
It's dwarfing the sun
D C
Burning within my heart and mind
