Joe Jackson – The Other Me (Guitar)

Eb                  Cm     Bb
I guess we can still be friends

Eb                  Cm     Bb
I guess we can talk at least

Cm                   Bb
But if we were seventeen

Ab               Cm              Bb
Imagine the things we'd do

Eb                      Cm      Bb
I know that those days are over

Eb                       Cm          Bb
I'm glad that those games are won

Cm                             Bb                Ab
And the winners ride off into the sunset

                         Gm        G
But it's not the same for you

Cm              Bb
And I don't want to play

           Ab                       Db
Those nasty games that adults play

Cm            Bb
But I can't let you go

        Db               Bb
And I can't see another way

        Ab               Eb          Bb
And I know that she's the only one for me

       Ab                      Eb                     Bb
But you know that if I could split in two

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would stay all night

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would hold you tight

Ab                                                  Eb               Cm   Bb
The other me - would be the only one for you

Eb                   Cm     Bb
When I see you there alone

Eb          Cm          Bb
It almost breaks my heart

Cm                 Bb
But it doesn't break enough

       Ab                                Bb    Fm
For me to break my whole life apart

Eb                    Cm     Bb
I guess we could still be friends

Eb              Cm     Bb
And we can talk all night

Cm                Bb
But I have to bite my tongue

        Ab                                 Gm         G
And sometimes words don't come out right

Cm              Bb
We're old enough to know

           Ab                    Db
What we can think or say out loud

Cm                 Bb
To know that hearts are not just

Db                           Bb
Cards to play when two's a crowd

        Ab               Eb                  Bb
And I know that she's the only one for me

       Ab                      Eb                     Bb
But you know that if I could split in two

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would stay all night

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would hold you tight

Ab                                                  Eb               Cm   Bb       Eb      Ab
The other me - would be the only one for you

            Eb                      Db                      Ab  Ab/G   Eb
Would take you so far away from here

                             Cm
And he'd be . .

                       Bb
A man with a mission . .

        Ab
The other me . .

           Fm                          F#            Bb
Might even be better than this one

        Ab               Eb                  Bb
And I know that she's the only one for me

       Ab                      Eb                     Bb
But you know that if I could split in two

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would stay all night

Ab                               Eb
The other me - would hold you tight

Ab                                                  Cm   B       Eb      F
The other me - would be the only one for you
