Storytelling(Chords)

	        Intro:  G  Bm  C  D  (2x)

G                           Bm 
Picture a scene in your mind 
                C                A                        D 
Look at all the people and take note of the setting behind 
C         Bm        Am            D 
Listen, watch, and wait, a plot begins to take shape 
G                      Bm                 C 
There's a story and then, characters will come to you 
A                     D 
Relating events as they choose to 
    C         Bm        Am             D              G 
But all their words and actions come entirely from you 

( Am  D ) 
             G              Bm                       C         D# 
If you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility 
            G                    Bm               C            D# 
And you can lead your characters anywhere you want, you have immunity 

( G  Bm  C  D ) (2x) 

G                         Bm 
Have you considered the way 
               C              A                           D 
People might react to all the things that your characters say? 
              C         Bm      Am               D 
And are their actions hand in hand with what you want to portray? 
        G                         Bm 
Are you sick? Are you crippled? Insane? 
  C              A                            D 
Expressing the desires that daren't speak their name? 
C    Bm      Am       D 
Are you the one to be blamed? 

              G              Bm                       C         D# 
Now you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility 
         G                     Bm                     C             D# 
But in directions, actions and words, cause and effect, you need consistency 

( G  Bm  C  D ) (3x) 

( G ) 
  
G                         Bm 
How can you finish the tale? 
                 C 
Lives which have played a part 
    A                   D 
Are summarized from the very start 
    C      Bm       Am           D 
And episodes left out to make it all go your way 
G                 Bm 
'It's a might big world 
C                A 
Some of it I've seen 
            D 
But mostly I've only heard 
     C        Bm      Am               D         G 
And stories are all fiction from their moment of birth' 

( Am  D ) 

               G                     Bm              C         D# 
You're just a storyteller, you're not trying to escape responsibility 
        G                        Bm                   C               D# 
If we believe you then you're successful but you don't make claims of verity 

( G  Bm  C  D ) (4x)
