Sequel Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 So G here she's actin' Em happy, D inside her handsome Bm home

 And G me, I'm flyin' in my D taxi, taking C tips A♯ and

 gettin' D stoned

 I got into town a little early D Am

Had eight hours to kill before the show

First I though about heading up north of the bay

 Then I C knew where I A♯ had to go D

 I thought about taking a limousine D Am

Or at least a fancy car

But I ended up taking a "Taxi'

 'Cause C that's how I A♯ this D far

 You see G ten years ago it was the Em front seat

 Drivin' D stoned and feelin' no Bm pain

 Now G here I am straight and D sittin' in the back

 Hitting C Sixteen A♯ Parkside D Lane C A♯ D D

C E

 The driveway was the same as I remembered E Bm

And a butler came and answered the door

He just shook his head when I asked for her

 And said "She D doesn't live C here E anymore D C E

 But he offered to give me the address E Bm

That they were forwarding her letters to

I just took it and returned to the cabbie

 And said "I got D one more C fare for E you." D C E

E And so we rolled back into the G city

 Up to a A five story old brown C stone

 I rang the D bell that had her name on the E mailbox

 The D buzzer said somebody's E home D C E C D

E

E And the look on her face as she G opened the door

 Was like an A old joke told by a C friend

 It'd taken D ten more years but she'd E found her smile

 And I D watched the corners start to E bend

 And she A said, ?How are you B7 Harry?

 Haven't we E played this scene before??

 I A said, "It's so good to E see you , Sue.

 Had to D play it out C just once E more

DPlay it out just once E more."

 She said ?I've heard you flying high on my radio.? E Bm

I answered "It's not all it seem."

That's when she laughed and she said,

 "It's better sometimes, when we don't D get to touch our E dreams."

  [D - E] x2

 That's when I A asked her where was that F♯m actress

 She E said "That was somebody C♯m else."

 And then I A asked her why she looked so E happy now

 She said, "I D finally like myself, at last I like E myself."

E G♯m E7 [E7/C♯] F♯m D7 C E

E So we talked all through that afternoon

G♯m Talking about where we'd been

E7 We talked of the tiny difference

E7/C♯ Between ending and starting to begin

F♯m We talked ?cause talking tells you things

D7 Like what you are really thinking about

C But sometimes you can't find what you're feeling

E ?Til all the words run out

 So I asked her to come to the concert E Bm

She said ?No, I work at night."

I said, ?We've gotten to damn good at leaving, Sue."

 She said, ?D Harry, C your E right." D E D E

 Don't A ask me if I made F♯m love to her

 Or which E one of us started to cry.

 Don't A ask me why she wouldn't take the E money that I left.

 If I D answered at all I'D E lie. D C E C A♯ D

 So I thought about her as I sang that night Am D

And how the circle keeps rolling around

How I act as I'm facing the footlights

 And how she's C flying with both A♯ feet on the D ground

 I guess G it's a sequel to our Em story

 >From the D journey ?tween heaven and Bm hell

 With G half the time thinking of what D might have been been

 And C half thinkin' A♯ just as D well

 I guess G only A7 time will D tell

Enjoy all...
