[Verse]
                F             
Call me a joker call me a fool
C                                    
Right at this moment I'm totally cool
                   F               
Clear as a crystal sharp as a knife
                       C7    C     C7  
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life


[Chorus]
             C              Am7           
Sometimes it feels like I'm going too fast
C                          D                
I don't know how long this feeling will last
C          G    C      
Maybe it's only tonight
          Bb         Am7
Darling I don't know why
        C       
I go to extremes
            Bb     
Too high or too low
F           Am7 C         
There ain't no  inbetweens
         Bb       A7    
And if I stand or I fall
                       F  
It's all or nothing at all
          Bb         F  
Darling I don't know why
        C       
I go to extremes


[Verse]
                    F                 
Sometimes I'm tired sometimes I'm shot
                           C              
Sometimes I don't know how much more I got
                 F            
Maybe I'm headed over the hill
            C                     
Maybe I set myself up for the kill
C7          C           Am7               
Tell me how much do you think you can take
Gsus4     C               D                
Until the heart in you is starting to break
C            G             C   
Sometimes it feels like it will


[Chorus]
          Bb         F  
Darling I don't know why
  Am7   C       
I go to extremes
            Bb     
Too high or too low
F              C         
There ain't no inbetweens
           Bb            A7  
You can be sure when I'm gone
Dm                       F   
I won't be out there too long
          Bb         Am7
Darling I don't know why
        C       
I go to extremes
D                   Bb            
Out of the darkness into the light
F                        C    
Leaving the scene of the crime
D                       Bb             
Either I'm wrong or I'm perfectly right
F         
Every time
Am                    F                
Sometimes I lie awake night after night
C                   G    
Coming apart at the seams
D               Bb            
Eager to please ready to fight
F              C7      
Why do I go to extremes

I go to extremes
            Bb     
Too high or too low
Am7   Am       C         
There ain't no inbetweens

You can be sure when I'm gone

I go to extremes

I don't know ■   why I don't know why
           C         Bb F N.C.     
Out of the dark into ■  ■ the light
N.C.                             
Whether I'm wrong perfectly right
N.C.            
I don't know why
