Telling Stories by Tracy Chapman
(I may not have the lyrics right in places. Enjoy!)
Intro: Em Chord (6th and 4th strings)

Em G C G D
There is fiction in the space between lines on a page, a memory
G C G D (Em C G D
Write it down, but it doesn't mean you're not just telling stories twice)
G C G D
There is fiction in the space between you and reality
G C G D
You would do and say anything to make your everyday life seem less
mundane
G C G D ( Em C G D twice )
There is fiction in the space between you and me.

G C G D
There's a science fiction in the space between you and me
G C G D
A fabrication, grand scheme. I am the scary monster
G C G D
Need to say it as I leave the scene in my spaceship I am laughing
G C G D
Your remembrance of a bad dream there's no one but you standing.
( repeat Em C G D twice )

Bridge:
D C G
Feel the pity and the pain for the ones who do not speak
D C G
Back the words you get respect and compassion and for posterity
C G Em
Spread the words and make believe there is truth in the space between.
(Em 4 bars)

G C G D
There is fiction in the space between you and everybody
G C G D
Give us all what we need. Give us one more sad, sordid story.
G C G D
In the fiction of the space between sometimes a lie is the best thing
G C G D (repeat G C G D)
sometimes a lie is the best thing
is the best thing (repeat)
(finish with Em)
