[N] Well to me this there's two [G#] kinds of writing is there's a [A#] completely personal thing what you [G] write about
Something that's happened to you or one of your own emotions
[G#]
I can write a [A#] story which may not have happened [G#] to you, but you can put yourself into that position which comes easiest
[D]
These days I think personal things
[G#m]
But I [F#] still like to write stories.

It's [A] today's to me the scene [G] today's is [A] it's getting a bit too personal.
You know not [F#] everybody can join in with it
you know I still think

Somewhere in [A] this paper world [G] is a place where I [D] can go

Long-awaited [Bm] mother is it [F#m] time to make a [C#m] show?
