Another Life Uke tab by Jason Robert Brown

*Note: If you want an easier chord progression, 
I highly suggest transposing this song two half-steps down.

INTRO:
D6 G D6 G  X2


VERSE 1

D6             G                  D6           G        D6
Put inside the picture frame some tables and a coffeepot

  Am7                       C
A uniform, a girl of tewnty-three

D6           G            D6            G    D6
Sitting at a table, put a man of thirty-seven

   Em7                           G           G/A
As exotic as that girl would ever see

D6                G            D6                G         D6
Have her standing over him and laughing, as he's asking her

     Am7                             C
a question no one thought to ask before

D6             G           D6             G       D6
Color him with mystery and color her with danger

         Em7                             G        G/A
And expose them just enough to wish for more



CHORUS:

              F#m7              G
And there was something there between us

          D               E7
Something I could never name

           F#m7              G
Something stronger, something stranger,

          D                     Em7       A7
More than quick-sand, more than flame:

              D6   G    D6    G
Another life

D6   G   D6   G


VERSE 2

D6               G          D6           G      D6
Further down the gallery, a picture of a couple

     Am7                       C
On a honeymoon in Marrakesh somewhere

D6               G             D6              G        D6
See him with his camera at his eye and see her grasping


       Em7                               G          G/A
at his hand Afraid he doesn't know she's there


CHORUS 2

              F#m7            G
And there was something deep inside him

          D                E7
Something I could never reach

        F#m7          G
Like he saw it getting closer

D                 Em7      A7
In a window, on a beach:

         D6    G    D6    G 
Another life


BRIDGE

        F#7               Bm                  F#7
Another life...  but I believed I'd grow to be

                     Bm                E7
The thing he needed most to see

           A7                           D#m7 (b5)
And if our nights just stayed this hot,

               B9                 E7      A7
I'd break him down, He'd open up...

                D6     G     D6     G
Well, obviously not


VERSE 3

D6              G              D6           G      D6
Back there in a shadow, find a picture of a woman

        Am7                           C
Wearing four years of confusion like a scar.

D6                  G                D6            G         D6
Walking through the door and leaving nothing but a note that says,

     Em7                             G     
"I'm sorry, Robert," taped to her guitar


CHORUS 3

             F#m7           G
And there is so much I still wonder,

       D               E7
Did he need me? Did he know?

        F#m7         G
Love is open, love is easy:

         D              Em7     A7
That was someone long ago.

        D6     G    D6   G
Another life

        D6     G  
Another life
