TOO MUCH LOVE WILL KILL YOU
by Brian May

[INTRO 1]
G G C C A7 A7 Dbdim Dbdim
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[INTRO 2]
G G D D C C Dsus Dsus
G G D D C C

[Verse 1]
Dsus Dsus G G
I'm just the pieces
C C G G
Of the man I used to be,
D D Em Em
Too many bitter tears
D D C C
Are raining down on me.
G G Am Am Em Em
I'm far away from home,
Am Am Em Em
And I've been facing this alone
D D D7sus D7sus D7 D7
For much too long

[Verse 2]
Dsus Dsus G G
I feel like no one
C C G G
Ever told the truth to me
D D Em Em
About growing up and what
D D C C
A A struggle it would be.
G G Am Am Em Em
In my tangled state of mind,
Am Am Em Em
I've been looking back to find
D D D7sus D7sus D7 D7
Where I went wrong

[CHORUS 1]
G G C C
Too much love will kill you
Em Em D D
If you can't make up your mind
G G C C
Torn between the lover
Em Em D D
And the love you leave behind
G G C C
You're headed for disaster
A7 A7 Dbdim Dbdim
'Cause you never read the signs...
D7sus D7sus D7 D7
Too much love will kill you
G G
Every time

[Interlude]
G G D D C C Dsus Dsus
G G D D C C

[Verse 3]
Dsus Dsus G G
I'm just the shadow
C C G G
Of the man I used to be,
D D Em Em
And it seems like there's
D D C C
No way out of this for me.
G G Am Am Em Em
I used to bring you sunshine,
Am Am Em Em
Now all I ever do
D D D7sus D7sus D7 D7
is bring you down,

[Verse 4]
Dsus Dsus G G
How would it be if you were
C C G G
Standing in my shoes?
D D Em Em D D
Can't you see that it's impossible
C C
to choose?
G G Am Am Em Em
No, there's no making sense of it,
Am Am Em Em
Every way I go,
D D
I'm bound to lose...
D7sus D7sus D7 D7
...Ooh

[CHORUS 2]
G G C C
Too much love will kill you
Em Em D D
Just as sure as none at all
G G C C
It'll drain the power that's in you
Em Em D D
Make you plead and scream and crawl
G G C C
And the pain will make you crazy
A7 A7 Dbdim Dbdim
You're the victim of your crime...
D7sus D7sus D7 D7
Too much love will kill you
G G
Every time

Too much love will kill you
Em Em D D
And you won't understand why
G G
You'd give your life,

You'd sell you soul,

But here it comes again...

Too much love will kill you...
