Pianists love to use these odd keys. As a guitar player you may find it much easier to transpose this one either down one half
step to G or up one half step to A. Just my $.02
Intro
Ab Eb
A man and a woman
Bb Bbsus4 Bb Bbsus4 Bb
Come together as strangers.
Ab
When they part
Eb Bb Bbsus4 Bb Bbsus4 Bb
They're usually strangers still.
Ab Eb
It's like a practical joke
Bb Bbsus4 Bb Bbsus4 Bb
Played on us by our Maker.
Ab
Empty bottles,
Eb Bb Bbsus4 Bb Bbsus4 Bb
That can't be filled.
Cm Dm
Baby, who's to say
Eb F
It coulda been different now that it's done.
Cm
(Baby, who's to say....)
Dm
Baby, who's to say
Eb F
That it shoulda been anyway.
Cm Dm
Baby, who's to say
Eb F
That it even matters in the long run.
Cm
(Baby, who's to say.)
Dm
Give it just a minute.
Eb F
And it'll blow away.
It'll blow away.
Gm F
Gm Eb F
You fancy me to be
The master of your feelings.
You barely bruise me
With your looks to kill.
Though I admit
We were sometimes brutal in our dealings,
I never held you against your will.
Chorus
Jam on verse chords
Gm F
Gm Eb F
Your case against me is so
Very clearly stated
I plead no contest,
I turn and shrug.
I've come to figure all importance
overestimated.
You must mean water when you beg for blood.
