I Love Her But She Loves Someone Else chords by Sting

Verse 1:
 Am
When a man of my age shaves his face in the morning
 E                                  Dm
Who is it that stares back and greets him?
    Dm                       G
The ghost of his father long dead all these years?
       Dm                     F
Or the boy that he was, still wet in the ears?
       E                   Am
Or the terrible sum of all of his fears
       B                               Am
In the eyes of this stranger who meets him?
       Am
So his glance rarely strays from his chin or his jawline
   E                           Dm
To face up to the truth of his soul
         Dm                G
It's the eyes he avoids so afraid to acknowledge
          F                    G
Something strange, unexpected, out of control
          C
There are times when a man needs to brave his reflection
    G                         Am
And face what he sees without fear
           Am                F
It takes a man to accept his mortality
      Dm                             E
Or be surprised by the presence of a tear
       Am                      Dm
It was only an arrangement, a practical arrangement
  B                                   E
I forgot the first commandment of the realist's handbook
         Am                      Dm
Don't be fooled by illusions you created yourself
    B                                   E             Am
And fall in love with someone, when she loves someone else

       Am                    E
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
   Dm                              C   G
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
         Am                                  C
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
Fm                         Dm            Am
You still love her but she loves someone else

B

Verse 2:
    Em
And where does that leave you?
    B
You self-styled man of vision
    G                             E
You feel stupid, you feel angry, are you losing your mind?
   Am                          E
To destroy the one she loves, does that become your mission?
       E                         Am
Like a pantomime villain with an axe to grind?
   Dm                                  Em
To regain your self-respect, hold your head up like a man
        Am                               Dm
Use the ice around your heart before it melts
               Am                           Dm      Am
But you're not fooling anybody, you're only fooling yourself



       F                     A#m
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
   G#                              C#
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
         F                                   C#
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
              Gm         F#          F             A#m
And still you still love her but she loves someone else
