Sting

Text File

Here's my version of "It's Probably Me" by: Sting - for acoustic guitar.  
I've arranged this a bit different the other versions by simplifying 
some of the chords and using chord substitutions when possible.  
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns:

Sting - It's Probably Me 

[Intro-2x]  EmMaj9  Em6add9   Em7add9   Em6add9

(Verse-1)
	       EmMaj9                    Em6add9
If the night turned cold - and the stars looked down
	   Em7add9                Em6add9
And you hug yourself - on the cold cold ground
	Am7                             Bm7
You wake the morning - in a stranger's coat
	          Em      G6       Em
No one would you see

(Chorus)
	    Am7                     Bm7
You ask yourself - who'd watch for me
	Em	              Em/C#
My only friend - who could it be
	         C - Cadd9        B7     
It's hard to say it - I hate to say it 
              EmMaj9 - Em6add9 - Em7add9 - Em6add9
it's probably me
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Verse-2)
	       EmMaj9                    Em6add9
When you belly's empty - and the hunger's so real
	   Em7add9                       Em6add9
You're too proud to beg - and too dumb to steal
	Am7                         Bm7
You search the city - for your only friend 
 	        Em      G6      Em
No one would you see

(Chorus)
	Am7                       Bm7
You ask yourself, - who could it be
	Em	                             Em/C#
A solitary voice to speak out and set you free
	C        Cadd9       B7               
I hate to say it - I hate to say it, 
              EmMaj9 - Em6add9 - Em7add9 - Em6add9
it's probably me
--------------------------------------------------------
[Bridge]
		   Am7				  D - Dsus - D
You're not the easiest person I ever got to know
         G (bass-walk-down G,F#,E)   Em7     
And it's hard for us both to let our feelings show
	      Am7				D - Dsus - D
Some would say I should let you go your way
                  G
You'll only make me cry

(Chorus)
Am7                       Bm7
If there's one guy - just one guy
     Em	                     Em/C#
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
	C        Cadd9       B7                
It's hard to say it - It's hard to say it
              EmMaj9 - Em6add9 - Em7add9 - Em6add9 
but it's probably me
---------------------------------------------------------------
(Verse-3)
       EmMaj9                            Em6add9
When the world's gone crazy - and it makes no sense
	     Em7add9                       Em6add9
There's only one voice that comes to your defence
	         Am7                 Bm7
When the jury's out and your eyes search the room
 	                           Em             G6   Em
And one friendly face is all you need to see
(Chorus)
              Am7             Bm7
If there's one guy - just one guy
     Em	                       Em/C#
Who'd lay down his life for you and die
              C   Cadd9       B7         
It's hard to say it  - I hate to say it, 
               Am7    A7
but it's probably me
     C        Cadd9             B7                
I hate to say it - I hate to say it,  
           EmMaj9 - Em6add9 - Em7add9 - Em6add9  (repeat 2x)
it's probably me
