G G  Bm Bm  C C  D D      x2

G G Bm Bm
Picture a scene in your mind
C C A A D D
Look at all the people and take note of the setting behind
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D
Listen, watch, and wait, a plot begins to take shape
G G Bm Bm C C
There's a story and then, characters will come to you
A A D D
Relating events as they choose to
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D G G
But all their words and actions come entirely from you

Am Am D D
G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
If you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility
G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
And you can lead your characters anywhere you want, you have immunity

G G Bm Bm C C D D x2

G G Bm Bm
Have you considered the way
C C A A D D
People might react to all the things that your characters say?
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D
And are their actions hand in hand with what you want to portray?
G G Bm Bm
Are you sick? Are you crippled? Insane?
C C A A D D
Expressing the desires that daren't speak their name?
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D
Are you the one to be blamed?

G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
Now you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility
G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
But in directions, actions and words, cause and effect, you need consistency

G G Bm Bm C C D D x3
G G

G G Bm Bm
How can you finish the tale?
C C
Lives which have played a part
A A D D
Are summarized from the very start
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D
And episodes left out to make it all go your way
G G Bm Bm
"It's a might big world
C C A A
Some of it I've seen
D D
But mostly I've only heard
C C Bm Bm Am Am D D G G
And stories are all fiction from their moment of birth"

Am Am D D
G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
You're just a storyteller, you're not trying to escape responsibility
G G Bm Bm C C D# D#
If we believe you then you're successful but you don't make claims of verity


G G Bm Bm C C D D x4
G G
