  I take more than I can give

This birds eye view
          C              D'             G  G4  G    G4 G
Of what I want you to do learn how to live

Or I'm a dirt clod in the clay

your translation's just a little off

  So what,   I made a mistake
Em              Cm      G
  to try to hiiide the tiny
F             Em     Cm
  The tiniest lie
                  G
gets a little bit larger everyday
   F                Em            Cm

I better find some way to stay
