Lyrics

My Reach Exceeds My Grasp (Dargan)

A9sus A6sus I bit off more than I can chew A9sus A6sus What is left for me to do? A9sus A6sus Eyes were bigger than my stomach Esus This much is true

C#m D
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp C#m D
A man's reach should exceed his grasp C#m B A Or what's a heaven for?

A9sus A6sus I bit off more than I can chew A9sus A6sus What else is left for me to do? A9sus A6sus Eyes were bigger than my stomach Esus This much is true

A9sus A6sus Break stuff and be fearless A9sus A6sus Take risks outside your comfort zone A9sus A6sus Seeking the impossible Esus But listen to the undertones

C#m D
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp C#m D Esus A man's reach should exceed his grasp C#m B A Or what's a heaven for?

Oh yes, you seem to write potentially anthemic songs with ease! I've got stuff
going for me... but I am slightly envious of this skill!! lol

I love the rhythmical drive. I see a crowd raising their hands singing reaching for their dreams with your chorus.

Well crafted song. I like the vocal harmony on the chorus. Thanks for sharing

The harmony is so floaty & interesting & then the E comes in & really anchors it! I like the twin vocals & the message!

I really like the chord progression you used! Favorite lines "Break stuff and be fearless" "Take risks outside your (comfort) zone" -Natalie

This sounds like oasis at its best, but made better and with crystalline vocals. Amazing
