Someone Else's Story
from CHESS
Music by Björn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson
Lyrics by Tim Rice
Capo: N/A
These chords are taken directly from the Piano/Vocal score of CHESS.
Using a capo is probably your best bet, so just transpose down a half step for each
capo. (i.e. Capo: 6 = transpose 6 halfsteps down)
However, the modulation for the last verse up a half-step makes it relatively more
difficult no matter how you choose to capo it.
| = precedes 4/4 measure
[ = precedes 2/4 measure
INTRO: 2 Bars of Gb
