Being an introvert with an extroverted child

My Daughter is 4 years old and she is a massive, massive extrovert. She talks from the minute she wakes up, until the minute she goes to bed. She also wants me to put full effort in to playing games with her all day.

I am a real introvert. It absolutely exhausts me talking for more than about 30 minutes. I want to scream "shut up" after about an hour of her following me around talking. Obviously I don't, but I feel so suffocated by her when she has days like this. I feel exhausted after a couple of hours, and nothing seems to stop her talking. I feel bad, but I snap after a while because I just can't hack it.

How do you manage to deal with a really extroverted, chatty child if you are the opposite??
