The Other Me

2 x   Eb  Cm  Bb

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


Cm              Bb
And I don't want to play
           Ab                       Db
Those nasty games that adults play
Cm            Bb
But I can't let you go
        Db               Bb
And I can't see another way


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

Eb                   Cm     Bb
When I see you there alone
Eb          Cm          Bb
It almost breaks my heart
Cm                 Bb
But it doesn't break enough
       Ab                                Bb    Fm
For me to break my whole life apart
Eb                    Cm     Bb
I guess we could still be friends
Eb              Cm     Bb
And we can talk all night
Cm                Bb
But I have to bite my tongue
        Ab                                 Gm         G
And sometimes words don't come out right

Cm              Bb
We're old enough to know
           Ab                    Db
What we can think or say out loud
Cm                 Bb
To know that hearts are not just
Db                           Bb
Cards to play when two's a crowd


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


The other me . .
            Eb                      Db                      Ab  Ab/G   Eb
Would take you so far away from here
                             Cm
And he'd be . .
                       Bb
A man with a mission . .
        Ab
The other me . .
           Fm                          F#            Bb
Might even be better than this one


        Ab               Eb                  Bb
And I know that she's the only one for me
       Ab                      Eb                     Bb
But you know that if I could split in two
Ab                               Eb
The other me - would stay all night
Ab                               Eb
The other me - would hold you tight
Ab                                                  Cm   B       Eb      F
The other me - would be the only one for you
