This is a great Harry Chapin song and I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. Sequel Harry Chapin (klr) G5 E5 D5 B5 So here she's actin' happy, inside her handsome home G5 D5 C5 Bb5 And me, I'm flyin' in my taxi, taking tips and D5 gettin' stoned D5 A5 I got into town a little early Had eight hours to kill before the show First I though about heading up north of the bay C5 Bb5 D5 Then I knew where I had to go D5 A5 I thought about taking a limousine Or at least a fancy car But I ended up taking a "Taxi' C5 Bb5 D5 'Cause that's how I this far G5 E5 You see ten years ago it was the front seat D5 B5 Drivin' stoned and feelin' no pain G5 D5 Now here I am straight and sittin' in the back C5 Bb5 D5 C5 Bb5 D5 Hitting Sixteen Parkside Lane C5 E5 E5 B5 The driveway was the same as I remembered And a butler came and answered the door He just shook his head when I asked for her D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 E5 And said "She doesn't live here anymore E5 B5 But he offered to give me the address That they were forwarding her letters to I just took it and returned to the cabbie D5 C5 E5 D5 C5 E5 And said "I got one more fare for you." E5 G5 And so we rolled back into the city A5 C5 Up to a five story old brown stone D5 E5 I rang the bell that had her name on the mailbox D5 E5 D5 C5 E5 C5 D5 The buzzer said somebody's home E5 E5 G5 And the look on her face as she opened the door A5 C5 Was like an old joke told by a friend D5 E5 It'd taken ten more years but she'd found her smile D5 E5 And I watched the corners start to bend A5 B5 And she said, ?How are you Harry? E5 Haven't we played this scene before?? A5 E5 I said, "It's so good to see you , Sue. D5 C5 Had to play it out just once E more D5 E5 Play it out just once more." E5 B5 She said ?I've heard you flying high on my radio.? I answered "It's not all it seem." That's when she laughed and she said, "It's better sometimes, when we don't D get to touch our E dreams." D5 - E5 x2 A5 F#5 That's when I asked her where was that actress E5 C#5 She said "That was somebody else." A5 E5 And then I asked her why she looked so happy now D5 E5 She said, "I finally like myself, at last I like myself." E5 Ab5 E5 E5 F#5 D5 C5 E5 E5 So we talked all through that afternoon Ab5 Talking about where we'd been E5 We talked of the tiny difference E5 Between ending and starting to begin F#5 We talked ?cause talking tells you things D5 Like what you are really thinking about C5 But sometimes you can't find what you're feeling E5 ?Til all the words run out E5 B5 So I asked her to come to the concert She said ?No, I work at night." I said, ?We've gotten to damn good at leaving, Sue." D5 C5 E5 D5 E5 D5 E5 She said, ? Harry, your right." A5 F#5 Don't ask me if I made love to her E5 Or which one of us started to cry. A5 E5 Don't ask me why she wouldn't take the money that I left. D5 E5 D5 C5 E5 C5 Bb5 D5 If I answered at all I'd lie. A5 D5 So I thought about her as I sang that night And how the circle keeps rolling around How I act as I'm facing the footlights C5 Bb5 D5 And how she's flying with both feet on the ground G5 E5 I guess it's a sequel to our story D5 B5 >From the journey ?tween heaven and hell G5 D5 With half the time thinking of what might have been been C5 Bb5 D5 And half thinkin' just as well G5 A5 D5 I guess only time will tell Any questions or comments LTWU46B@PRODIGY.COM Enjoy all...
