Telling Stories

Em

[Verse]
         Em                     C     G                  D/F#
There is fiction in the space between lines on a page, a memory
         Em                    C           G                D/F#
Write it down, but it doesn't mean you're not just telling stories

[Verse]
         Em                     C    G          D/F#
There is fiction in the space between you and reality
          Em            C                  G                  D/F#
You would do and say anything to make your everyday life seem less
mundane
         Em                     C     G       D/F#
There is fiction in the space between you and me.

[Verse]
                  Em                          C G       D/F#
There's a science fiction in the space between you and me
       Em             C       G              D/F#
A fabrication, grand scheme. I am the scary monster
        Em                    C           G              D/F#
Need to say it as I leave the scene in my spaceship I am laughing
       Em                 C             G              D/F#
Your remembrance of a bad dream there's no one but you standing.

[Bridge]
D                          C                G
Feel the pity and the pain for the ones who do not speak
D                                            C          Em
Back the words you get respect and compassion and for posterity
C                    Em                    G            D/F#  Em
Spread the words and make believe there is truth in the space between.

[Verse]
         Em                     C     G       D/F#
There is fiction in the space between you and everybody
Em                  C             G             D/F#
Give us all what we need. Give us one more sad, sordid story.
       Em                     C     G              D/F#
In the fiction of the space between sometimes a lie is the best thing
Em      C       G             D/F#
                 sometimes a lie is the best thing
Em      C       G             D/F#
                              is the best thing
