The Story Of Me Chords & Lyrics - Everly Brothers

[INTRO]
[A] - [Em] - [D] - [Dm/B] 2x

[A] Rescue me,[Em] before my [D] dreams have flown a-[Dm/B] way
[A] Rescue me, [Em] take me [D] back with you a-[Dm/B] gain
[A] The lonely hours I wait for[Dm/B] dawn's caress I can't forget,
[A] [Dm/B]*
the silence of the lonely- ness

[A] Destiny,[Em] I wrote the [D] book about the [Dm/B] game
[A] Destiny,[Em] now I've [D] learned how to take the [Dm/B] pain
[A] Try as I may I can't ex-[Dm/B] plain the way I'm feeling now
[A] [Dm/B]*
Try as I may I can't ex- plain
And [E] now I'm [C#m] walking right back to [D] you
And [E] all a-[C#m] long I never really [D] kne- [E] ew
That there was [C#m] heartbreak ahead
And [Em/G] everyone but [F#] I could[Bm] see
That's the [Dm/B] story of [A] me

[Em] - [D] - [Dm/B]

[A] Don't look back, [Em] to think a- [D] bout the things w[Dm/B]e did
[A] Don't look back, [Em] to pretend that's [D] how it might have[Dm/B] been
[A] I'm walking homeward thru the[Dm/B] shadows of the night again
[A] [Dm/B]*
So now the story can be told,
And [E] now I'm [C#m] walking right back to [D] you
And [E] all a-[C#m] long I never really [D] kne- [E] ew
That there was [C#m] sorrow to come
And [Em/G] I thought there'd be [F#] ecsta-[Bm] sy
That's the [Dm/B] story of [A] me

[Em] - [D] - [Dm/B]

And [E] now I'm [C#m] walking right back to [D] you
And [E] all a- [C#m] long I never really [D] kne- [E] ew
That it's so [C#m] easy to see
[Em/G] that's how it's [F#] meant to[Bm] be
That's the [Dm/B] story of [A] me
[Em] Story of [D] me,
[Dm/B] That's the story of [A] me [A] //
