Telling Stories — Visual Piano Sheet Music
"Telling Stories" in visual bar notation — see every note as a colored bar on the staff. Easier to read than traditional sheet music. Scrolls automatically as you play. Key of E, 126 BPM.
Tip: Use the speed control to practice at 70% tempo first. Focus on tricky chord transitions before attempting the full arrangement.
Lyrics
There is (Em)fic tion in the space be tween
the (G)lines on your page of (D6)mem o ries.
Write it (Em)down but it does n’t mean
you’re (G)not just tell ing sto ries.
There is (Em)fic tion in the space be tween
you and re (D6)al i ty.
You will (Em)do and say an y thing
to make your (G)ev ’ry day life seem (D6)less mun dane.
There is (Em)fic tion in the space be tween
you and me.
There’s a sci ence (Em)fic tion in the space be tween
you and me,
a fab ri (Em)ca tion, a grand scheme
where (G)I am the scar y mon ster.
I eat the (Em)cit y.
As I leave the scene
in my (G)space ship, I am laugh (D6)ing.
In your re (Em)mem brance of your bad dream,
there’s (G)no one but you stand ing.
Leave the pit y
and the blame
for the ones who (G)do not speak.
You write the words to get re spect and com pas sion and for pos (Em)ter i ty.
You write the words and (Em)make be lieve there is (G)truth in the (D6)space be (Em)tween.
There is (Em)fic tion in the space be tween
you and (D6)ev ’ry bod y.
(Em)Give us all what we need.
Give us (G)one more sad sor (D6)did sto ry.
In the (Em)fic tion of the space be tween,
(G)some times a lie
is the best thing.
(G)Some times a lie
is the best thing.
Oh, the best thing,
is the best thing.
