When playing live, Matt Nathanson plays a sort of medley with the Outro being a part of a different song. I've
added both the "At The Point" version and the one he does with "Anna Begins".

D                     Asus4
  Kindness falls like rain
               G
Washes me away
 
And Anna begins to change her mind
D                   Bm7                             Asus4
  "Seconds when I'm shaking leave me shuddering for days, " she says
        G             Asus4
And I'm not ready for this sort of thing
D                      Asus4
  She's talking in her sleep
                 Bm7              G
She's keeping me awake and Anna begins to fade away
D                 Asus4
  It's chasing me away she disappears and
Bm7           G
Oh Lord, I'm not ready for this sort of thing
