Storytelling

G Bm C D x2

G Bm

Picture a scene in your mind

C A D

Look at all the people and take note of the setting behind

C Bm Am D

Listen, watch, and wait, a plot begins to take shape

G Bm C

There's a story and then, characters will come to you

A D

Relating events as they choose to

C Bm Am D G

But all their words and actions come entirely from you

Am D

G Bm C D#

If you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility

G Bm C D#

And you can lead your characters anywhere you want, you have immunity

G Bm C D x2

G Bm

Have you considered the way

C A D

People might react to all the things that your characters say?

C Bm Am D

And are their actions hand in hand with what you want to portray?

G Bm

Are you sick? Are you crippled? Insane?

C A D

Expressing the desires that daren't speak their name?

C Bm Am D

Are you the one to be blamed?

G Bm C D#

Now you're a storyteller you might think you're without responsibility

G Bm C D#

But in directions, actions and words, cause and effect, you need consistency

G Bm C D x3

G

G Bm

How can you finish the tale?

C

Lives which have played a part

A D

Are summarized from the very start

C Bm Am D

And episodes left out to make it all go your way

G Bm

"It's a might big world

C A

Some of it I've seen

D

But mostly I've only heard

C Bm Am D G

And stories are all fiction from their moment of birth"

Am D

G Bm C D#

You're just a storyteller, you're not trying to escape responsibility

G Bm C D#

If we believe you then you're successful but you don't make claims of verity
