That Particular Time

Alanis Morissette

   C
1. My foundation was rocked
   F                 Emi                      Dmi
   My tried and true way to deal was to vanish
      C
   My departures were old
   F              Dmi                     G
   I stood in the room shaking in my boots
   F                  G             C                Dmi
   At that particular time love had challenged me to stay
   F                  G             C          Dmi
   At that particular moment I knew not to run away again
   F               G           C                   Dmi
   That particualr month I was ready to investigate with you
   F                      C
   At that particualr time

2. We thought a break would be good
   For four months we sat and vacillated
   We thought a small time apart
   Would clear up the doubts that were abounding
   At that particular time love encouraged me to wait
   At that particualr moment it helped me to be patient
   That particular month we needed time to marinate in what "us" meant
   At that particular time

               Ami
R: I've always wanted for you
                         F
   What you've wanted for yourself
             Ami                         F
   And yet I wanted to save us high water or hell
         Ami                  F
   And I kept on ignoring the ambivalence you felt
          G                 F
   In the meantime I lost myself
          G                 F
   In the meantime I lost myself
       G              F       C
   I'm sorry I lost myself...I am

3. You knew you needed more time
   Time spent alone with no distraction
   You felt you needed to fly
   Solo and high to define what you wanted
   At that particualr time love encouraged me to leave
   At that particular moment I knew staying with you meant desserting me
   That particualr month was harder than you'd believe
         F                             C
   But I still left at that particualr time
