people I know, places I go

*Chorus* [ See Tablature Above ]
C5

G5
G5 Cmaj11
places I know, places I go
make me feel so tired
and I can see how people look down
they're on the inside
oh here's where the story ends
ooh here's where the story ends
it's that little souvenir of a terrible year
which makes my eyes feel sore
and who ever would've thought the books that you brought
were all I loved you for
oh the devil in me said, go down to the shed
I know where I belong
but the only thing I ever really wanted to say
was wrong, was wrong, was wrong
it's that little souvenir of a colorful year
which makes me smile inside
so I cynically, cynically say, well is that why
surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise, surprise
here's where the story ends
ooh here's where the story ends
End on G7M..

I got the chords from two separate posts last year, and added the picking
pattern I use at the end. Corrections and additions are welcome to both
the chords and lyrics. I'll post 'You're not the only one that I know' in
a couple days.

Here?s Where the Story Ends by the SUNDAYS
G5 C5
People I know, places I go
G5 C5
Make me feel tongue-tied
G5 C5
Like you see how, people are down
G5 C5
There on the inside
G5 C5 G5 C5
Here?s where the story ends
People I see, weary of me
Showing my good side
Like you see how, people are down
I?m on the outside
Here?s where the story ends
Oh, here?s where the story ends
B5 *
Oh, it?s that little souvenir of a terrible year
G5 C5
Which makes my eyes go so
B5 *
Oh I never should have said, the books you read
G5 C5
Were all I loved you for
Oh, it?s that little souvenir of a terrible year
That makes me wonder why
It?s the memories of the shed, that make me turn red
Surprise, surprise, surprise
Places I know, places I go
Make me feel so tired
Like you see how, people are down
I?m on the outside
Here?s where the story ends
Oh, here?s where the story ends
Oh, it?s that little souvenir of a terrible year
Which makes my eyes go so
And whoever would have thought, the books you brought
Were all I loved you for
Oh, the devil in me said
Go down to the shed, I know where I belong
But, the anything-I-ever-really-wanted-to-say
Was wrong, was wrong, was wrong
Oh, it?s that little souvenir of a colorful year
Which makes me smile inside
So I cynically, cynically say, the world is that way
Surprise, surprise, suprise, suprise, surprise
Here?s where the story ends
Oh, here?s where the story ends
I use this picking pattern near the end of the song:
------2------2------------------0------ |
---------------0---------3---------3--- |
----0------0----0--------------------0- |
-----------------------2------2-------- |
---------------------3------3---------- |
