A           Em           D                     Dm/B
  Rescue me,   before my   dreams have flown a-    way
A            Em        D                 Dm/B
  Rescue me,   take me   back with you a-    gain
A                            Dm/B
  The lonely hours I wait for    dawn's caress I can't forget,
A                          Dm/B*
  the silence of the lonely-   ness

A         Em             D                Dm/B
  Destiny,   I wrote the   book about the     game
A         Em          D                         Dm/B
  Destiny,   now I've   learned how to take the     pain
A                         Dm/B
  Try as I may I can't ex-    plain the way I'm feeling now
A                         Dm/B*
  Try as I may I can't ex-     plain
    E         C#m                      D
And   now I'm    walking right back to   you
    E       C#m                    D      E
And   all a-   long I never really   kne-   ew
               C#m
That there was    heartbreak ahead
    Em/G             F#       Bm
And     everyone but   I could   see
           Dm/B         A
That's the     story of   me

Em - D - Dm/B

A                 Em            D                  Dm/B
 Don't look back,   to think a-   bout the things we   did
A                 Em                  D                  Dm/B
 Don't look back,   to pretend that's   how it might have    been
A                              Dm/B
  I'm walking homeward thru the    shadows of the night again
A                        Dm/B*
  So now the story can be     told,
    E         C#m                      D
And   now I'm    walking right back to   you
     E      C#m                    D      E
And   all a-   long I never really   kne-   ew
               C#m
That there was    sorrow to come
    Em/G                      F#      Bm
And      I thought there'd be   ecsta-   sy
           Dm/B         A
That's the     story of   me

Em - D - Dm/B

    E         C#m                      D
And   now I'm    walking right back to   you
     E       C#m                    D      E
And   all a-    long I never really   kne-   ew
             C#m
That it's so    easy to see
Em/G                F#         Bm
    that's how it's    meant to   be
           Dm/B        A
That's the    story of   me
Em          D
   Story of   me,
Dm/B                     A    A
     That's the story of   me   //
