The Other Me chords by Joe Jackson

Chords with lyrics

INTRO:
2 x  Eb MajorEb C minorCm Bb majorBb

Eb MajorEb         C minorCm   Bb majorBb
I guess we can still be friends
Eb MajorEb         C minorCm   Bb majorBb
I guess we can talk at least
C minorCm          Bb majorBb
But if we were seventeen
AbAb        C minorCm       Bb majorBb
Imagine the things we'd do
Eb MajorEb           C minorCm   Bb majorBb
I know that those days are over
Eb MajorEb            C minorCm     Bb majorBb
I'm glad that those games are won
C minorCm               Bb majorBb        AbAb
And the winners ride off into the sunset
             G minorGm    G+G
But it's not the same for you

C minorCm       Bb majorBb
And I don't want to play
      AbAb            DbDb
Those nasty games that adults play
C minorCm      Bb majorBb
But I can't let you go
    DbDb        Bb majorBb
And I can't see another way


    AbAb        Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
And I know that she's the only one for me
    AbAb           Eb MajorEb           Bb majorBb
But you know that if I could split in two
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would stay all night
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would hold you tight
AbAb                         Eb MajorEb        C minorCm  Bb majorBb
The other me - would be the only one for you

Eb MajorEb          C minorCm   Bb majorBb
When I see you there alone
Eb MajorEb     C minorCm     Bb majorBb
It almost breaks my heart
C minorCm         Bb majorBb
But it doesn't break enough
    AbAb                Bb majorBb  F minorFm
For me to break my whole life apart
Eb MajorEb          C minorCm   Bb majorBb
I guess we could still be friends
Eb MajorEb       C minorCm   Bb majorBb
And we can talk all night
C minorCm        Bb majorBb
But I have to bite my tongue
    AbAb                 G minorGm     G+G
And sometimes words don't come out right

C minorCm       Bb majorBb
We're old enough to know
      AbAb          DbDb
What we can think or say out loud
C minorCm         Bb majorBb
To know that hearts are not just
DbDb              Bb majorBb
Cards to play when two's a crowd

    AbAb        Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
And I know that she's the only one for me
    AbAb           Eb MajorEb           Bb majorBb
But you know that if I could split in two
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would stay all night
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would hold you tight
AbAb                         Eb MajorEb        C minorCm  Bb majorBb    Eb MajorEb   AbAb
The other me - would be the only one for you


The other me . .
      Eb MajorEb           DbDb           AbAb Ab/G  Eb MajorEb
Would take you so far away from here
               C minorCm
And he'd be . .
            Bb majorBb
A augmentedA man with a mission . .
    AbAb
The other me . .
      F minorFm             F#F#      Bb majorBb
Might even be better than this one


    AbAb        Eb MajorEb         Bb majorBb
And I know that she's the only one for me
    AbAb           Eb MajorEb           Bb majorBb
But you know that if I could split in two
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would stay all night
AbAb                Eb MajorEb
The other me - would hold you tight
AbAb                         C minorCm  BB    Eb MajorEb   FF
The other me - would be the only one for you

AbAb    F minorFm    G minorGm    C minorCm
