Cumbersome

by Seven Mary Three, 1994/1996

Capo 3
v.1
EShe calls me Goliath but I Dwear the David mask
AI guess the stones are comin' too Efast for her now
EYou know I'd like to believe this Dnervousness will pass
AAll the stones that are thrown are Ebuildin' up a wall

Chorus:
EI have beGcome cumberDsome to this Eworld
EI have beGcome cumberDsome to my Egirl

v.2
I'd like to believe we could reconcile the past
Resurrect those bridges with an ancient glance
But my old stone face can't seem to break her down
She remembers bridges and she burns them to the ground

Rpt. Ch.

Refrain:
EToo heavy, too light, too black or too Gwhite, too wrong or too right
Today, toDnight, cumberEsome
EToo rich or too poor, she's wanting me Gless an' I'm wanting her more
DThe bitter taste is cumberEsome, oh yeah
GNo, no, Eno, yeahD--D--E... Gno, no, Eno, yeahD--D--E

Instr. Brk.
E--D--A--E

v.3. {slow, quiet}
EThere is a Gbalance between two Aworlds
One with an Earrow and a cross
ERegardless of the Dbalance
Life has beAcome cumberEsome

Rpt. Refrain
Your life has become cumbersome
