Someone Else's Story Tabulatur von Chess (für Baryton)

G
Long ago
  C                    D  
In someone else's lifetime
G                   E
Someone with my name
      C                 A
Who looked a lot like me
G
Came to know
  C                    D
A man and made a promise
     G             E
He only had to say
      G                             D
And that's where she would be
D
Lately
G                              C
Although the feelings run just as deep
     E                               C                  G
The promise she made has grown impossible to keep
             C             G
And yet I wish it wasn't so
C                        G
Will he miss me if I go?
G 
In a way
    C                   D
It's someone else's story
G             E
I don't see myself
  C                    A
As taking part at all
G
Yesterday
 C                   D
A girl that I was fond of
G               E
Finally could see
    G                  D
The writing on the wall
D
Sadly
    G                              C
She realized she'd left him behind
 E                                   A                 G
And sadder than that she knew he wouldn't even mind
                        C                  G
And though there's nothing left to say
C                  D     G
Would he listen if I stay?
D#          B#m                 G                    C
It's all very well to say you fool it's now or never
Bm        F#
I could be choosing
A
No choices whatsoever.
G#
I could be
  C#              D#
In someone else's story
G#     
In someone else's life
C#                   A#
And he could be in mine
G#     
I don't see
  C#              D#
A reason to be lonely
G#              E#m
I could take my chances
G#                  D#
Further down the line
                                     G#       C#
And if that girl I knew should ask my advice
  E#                            A#                 G#
Oh I wouldn't hesitate she needn't ask me twice Go now!
   C#                  G#
I'd tell her that for free
C#                D#
Trouble is, the girl is me
C#                   G#
The story is, the girl is me.
