Chords for Jeremy Jordan - Losing My Mind (Hollywood)

It's really interesting.
I learned how to play the guitar in high school.
What am I doing?
I'm just walking around with a stand.
I learned how to play guitar in high school.
And my high school years were not my proudest.
I was often very sad and depressed.
And so when I learned how to play guitar, I immediately started writing songs.
And all my songs were about just unrequited love and sadness and pain and anger.
Literally, I had titles like Great Depression and Pathetic and Falling.
I was like, God, this is awful. _
But as I got a little older, especially when I moved to the city after college,
I noticed that my songwriting began to change.
And they became more hopeful and sort of _ joyous.
And I realized that I was finally in a place in my life where I was happy.
I had my whole career in front of me.
I was where I wanted to be, out of Corpus Christi in New York City.
I was pursuing my dream.
Everything was open to me.
And so my songs reflected that.
They were more of a catharsis than a purging of inner demons.
_ _ _ And I just think it's really cool to trace my path to happiness through the songs that I've written throughout the years.
And in my current state of happiness, it's begun to affect how I interpret other songs,
especially when I'm acting.
So I did a show last year called Bed in a Chair at the City Center in New York.
And it was just a week-long thing.
It was a review of Stephen Sondheim music as interpreted by Wynton Marsalis, the world-renowned jazz musician.
So there's these jazzy Sondheim songs.
It was the coolest thing ever.
And I was tasked with singing Losing My Mind from Follies.
You guys know this song?
_ Well, in my joyful, happy state, I don't know it at all.
I never heard it.
So I'm looking at the script, and I'm reading the lyrics, and I'm looking [N] at the music, and kind of looking through it.
And I'm like, oh, well, naturally, this is a song about a young man who's so head over heels [G] in love
that he's losing his mind with [C] happiness.
_ _ _ [G] Turns out, _ the song is sung by an older [B] woman who's [E] very much in love with a man for her whole life
who don't love her back.
So it's a really sad song.
And I'm sure that my high school self would have [N] gotten it perfectly, round the dot.
But to me, it was always this happy love song.
And we [G] performed it that way in the show.
So I thought I'd give [E] you guys my joyful, jazzy version [N] of Losing My Mind.
