intro&verses
Am[x02210]/G[32000x]/F[13320x]/G, Em[022000]/
v1:
Tell it to the judge, man.
Tell it to your motherless reflection.
In a sock and one shoe
after the great defection
he said, "tell a lie sometimes, tell the truth
when it suits you, and when you've lost your way
tell a story."
ch:
F[13321x], G[32000x]/Am[x02210], G/
Tell your story, tell it, tell it.
Tell your story to anyone who'll listen.
F, G/
Tell your story,
C[x32010], Bb[x13331]/F[13321x], G[32000x]/
don't stop talking just tell your story walking.
Am[x02210]/G[32000x]/F[13320x]/G, Em[022000]/
v2:
Listing through Carol Gardens
on the way to Cobble Hill
I stopped by a psychic's dusty, wilted windowsill.
F[13321x], G[32000x]/Am[x02210], G/
Forgot what she told me, mostly
but I remember one thing she said
F/G/
"You may slip and call some lousy fuck your friend
Dm[xx0231], Am[x02210]/F[13320x], G[32000x]/
but in the end you'll come out even
then, tell your story."
ch:Repeat
Am[x02210]/G[32000x]/F[13320x]/G[32000x]/
br:
Dm[xx0231], Am[x02210]/
And it's a sorry, frightful thing
C[x32010], Bb[x13331]/F[13321x], G[32000x]/
when you want to cry, but you can't keep from laughing.
F[13321x], G[32000x]/Am[x02210], G/
Outside the church that's so quiet it dares you to shout
F[13321x], G[32000x]/Am[x02200]/
you put a hand to your mouth to stop the rain.
F[13321x], G[32000x]/Dm[xx0231], Am[x02210]/
You do a St. Vitus dance, to the sky you raise your voice.
C[x32010], Bb[x13331]/F[13321x], G[32000x]/
This is your chance, you have no choice
you tell your story.
ch:Repeat
Am[x02210]/G[32000x]/F[13320x]/G[32000x]/
Am/G/F/G, Em/F, G, Am

I can never make him mine
I can never make him mine
never make him mine."

nothing for the blues when the sky goes grey".

Remember when we were young
How you asked everyone to marry you
All of those songs we sung
Changing all the words you used to make the heroine

die why?
ch:
F[13321x]
I don't want to say it's breaking my heart

C[x32010], Am7[x02010]/
The old times
v2:
Remember when we got caught
Dirty hands and make-believe drugs
We never got
Give me all your money
Bank robbers and cowboy cops
Make-believe rocks
Remember when we held hands
Red rover and marching band
You had a tan
Staying outside that long's gonna make you man
Never going back, never going back again
ch:
I don't want to say it's breaking my heart
And I don't know where to start
Old friends are falling apart
Time like the name of a man
Covered and we both can whine
I miss the straight, straight lines
The old times
Remember when we were young
