Subject: CRD: 'Here's Where the Story Ends' by the
Sundays
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.

HereÕs Where the Story Ends by the SUNDAYS
Gmaj7
Cadd9
People I know, places I go
Gmaj7
Cadd9
Make me feel tongue-tied
Gmaj7 Cadd9
Like you see how, people are down
Gmaj7
Cadd9
There on the inside
Gmaj7
Cadd9 Gmaj7 Cadd9
HereÕs where the story ends
People I see, weary of me
Showing my good side
Like you see how, people are down
IÕm on the outside
HereÕs where the story ends
Oh, hereÕs where the story ends
B*
Oh, itÕs that little souvenir of a terrible year
Gmaj7 Cadd9
Which makes my eyes go so
B*
Oh I never should have said, the books you read
Gmaj7 Cadd9
Were all I loved you for
Oh, itÕs that little souvenir of a terrible year
That makes me wonder why
ItÕs 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
IÕm on the outside
HereÕs where the story ends
Oh, hereÕs where the story ends
Oh, itÕs 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, itÕs 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
HereÕs where the story ends
Oh, hereÕs where the story ends
I use this picking pattern near the end of the song:
