Too high or too low there ain't no in betweens.

And if I stand or I fall, it's all or nothing at all.

know how much more I've got.
C         C/E     F       Dm7  F              G      C
Maybe I'm headed over the hil, Maybe I've set myself up for the kill.

Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right every time.
Am                   FF/CF/AF    C     C/E

seams.
