[A] [F] [B]
[A] [Am] [F]
[A] Here [F] I am baby, [G]
[Am] I'm an [F] open book [Em]
I [Am] know you read the [F] story
[G]
[Am] But you need to take another [F] look [Am]
The color [F] may be faded
[Em]
[Am] And [F] worn with [G] age [Am] Go [F] ahead and open it [G]
[Am] baby
Just turn [F] the page
[G] You
[Am] [F]
[Am] [F] [Am]
[B] [Am]
may [G] think [Am] you know the [F] story
[Am] But there's [G] more than [F] meets the eye [G] [Am] You gotta read between the lines
Let me tell you [G] why [Am]
There's always hidden meaning
Inside [G] the [Am] metaphor You may have to read it one more time
If at first you ain't too sure [G]
Sometimes [Am] it's a comedy
[G]
Sometimes [Am] it's a tragedy [G]
Sometimes [Am] I feel like
[D] There's more [Em] than I want [F] to [G] see Take [F] another look baby
[Dm]
I [Am] [G]
[Dm]
[Am] [Em]
[G] [Dm]
[Am] [G]
[F]
[G]
[Am] [Em] get [F] tired of trying [Am]
To find the [F] words to [Am] say
Sometimes [G] I want to [Am] close the cover And put the book [Dm] away
[F] And [Am] leave it there [F] forever [Am]
Sitting on [F] the shelf
[Am]
Sometimes that [F] seems easier [Am] Than trying to face [F] myself
[Dm]
[G] It ain't the same [Am] old story [G]
The one you think you [Am] know
[G] Right inside [Am] these pages I [Dm] got nowhere [Em] else [F] to go
[G] Take [F] another look baby
So [Am]
read it [F] one more time baby [Am] See how far [F] you get
[Am] Don't [F] know the end It [Am] ain't been written [F] yet
[Am]
There's [F] allegory
[Am] There's symbolism [F] too
[G] It [Am] means something [F] different to everybody [Am] What does it [F] mean to [Em] you?
Take [Am] another [F] look now [Am] baby
[F] [G] Take [Am] another look [F] baby
[Am] Take another look now baby
[Dm]
[Am] [G] [F] Whoa
[Am] [Dm] [Am]
[G] [Am]
[F]
[Am] [F]
