Stories Of Me chords by Paul Kelly

STORIES OF ME

Paul Kelly

Great song that's easy to play, easy to sing. One of my favourites from the great Paul Kelly.
Play it with a strong beat and really get into that instrumental section in the bridge.




Intro:

G  D  Em


Verse 1:

Em                             G         D       Em
Ever since you said goodbye, I've had a reputation

                             G       D          Em
I'm not drinking on the sly, I'm the star attraction

G             D          Am              C           Em
Every morning I wake up, Fill my cup and listen bitterly

    G   D     Em      G   D   Em
To stories of me



Verse 2:

Em                                G         D       Em
They say a man is going 'round, he looks a lot like me

                                 G         D          Em
They say that man is going down, it's looking pretty likely

G             D         Am                 C           Em
Every morning he wakes, fills his cup and listens shamefully

   G    D     Em      G   D   Em
To stories of me



Bridge:

D              Em       D                   Em         D
Everybody come on down, set 'em up and pass 'em round

D           Em      G       D
We're all here......for a drowning

Verse 3:

Em                           G         D        Em
I was down at Baker's Hall, I heard somebody talking

                                 G       D         Em
That's the last thing I recall, then my mind went walking

G             D         Am                 C           Em
I woke up with a heavy head, on a hard bed trying to believe

  G    D     Em      G   D   Em
These stories of me

Yeah I woke up in a stranger's bed,    wondering about the things she said to me

These stories of me
