Verse 1
        E5       B5        F#5                    A5 
I never knew the sky could burn a hole into my empty head 
        E5     B5          F#5                  A5 
I never knew a smile could turn us into enemies instead 
        E5                    B5 
Oh, the never-ending bliss of moments that you missed  
          F#5                                 A5 
Returning back like waves for second tries at luck 
                    E5                                   B5 
The luck you didn’t have back then but now that it don’t matter much  
                   F#5                               A5 
It’s easy love and strangers acting like your oldest friends 
 
Chorus
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                       A5 
I wanna hold onto the innocence I got 
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                              A5 
I wanna care for all the little things I got 
 
Verse 2
              E5       B5     F#5                           A5 
I should have seen the signs, clovers starting dying in the field 
            E5     B5         F#5                         A5 
I shouldn’t be surprised when all the sudden all of it is real 
      E5                        B5                         F#5 
Oh, I tried to write a book but I misunderstood what I had seen  
                         A5 
And so the story made no sense 
                  E5                               B5 
And stories all depend on whose perspective you prefer  
                    F#5                            A5 
Is it an I or is it her, and does it matter in the end 
 
Chorus
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                       A5 
I wanna hold onto the innocence I got 
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                              A5 
I wanna care for all the little things I got

Verse 3
        E5       B5          F#5                          A5 
I saw a film and cried cause beauty has a way of crushing me 
        E5        B5           F#5                                A5 
I took a pill and sighed cause I’ve done things against which I believe 
      E5                         B5 
Oh, I think of you at night when my mind won’t stay quiet  
             F#5                            A5 
And I’ve got someone sleeping peacefully at home 
                         E5                         B5 
But peace won’t reach my bones, the sadness still remains 
                             F#5                            A5 
And though I sing the same refrain it all amounts to no one knows 
 
Chorus
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                       A5 
I wanna hold onto the innocence I got 
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                              A5 
I wanna care for all the little things I got 
 
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                       A5 
I wanna hold onto the innocence I got 
            E5                                B5 
It’s just a lot, it’s just a lot, it’s just a lot 
        F#5                              A5 
I wanna care for all the little things I got 
 
Outro
           E5                                B5 
You get it right, you get it wrong, it never stops 
            N.C. 
It’s just a lot
