[Intro 1]
[G][Bm][C][D][G][Bm][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]Picture
a scene in your [Bm]mind
Looks at all the [C]people and take
[A]note of the setting be[D]hind
[C]Listen, [Bm]watch, an[C]d w[Am]ait
A plot be[D]gins to take [G]shape

[Verse 2]
There's a story And [Bm]then
characters will [C]come to you
Re[A]lating events as [D]they choose to
But [C]all their words and [Am]actions come
[D]entirely from you
[G][Am]

[Verse 3]
[D]
If you're [G]a storyteller you [Bm]might think
you're [C]without respons[Cm]ibility
And you can [G]lead your characters
[Bm]anywhere you [C]want
You have im[Cm]munity[G][Bm]
[C][D][G][Bm][C][D]
[G]Have you considered the [Bm]way

[Verse 4]
People might re[C]act to all the [A]thing
s that your characters [D]say?
And are their ac[C]tions hand in [Am]hand
with what you [D]want to portray?
Are you [G]sick?
Are you crippled? In[Bm]sane?

[Verse 5]
Ex[C]pressing the de[A]sires that
daren't speak [D]their name?
[C]Are you the [Am]one to be [D]blamed?
Now you're [G]a storyteller you [Bm]might think
you are [C]without respons[Cm]ibility
But in dir[G]ections, actions and [Bm]words

[Verse 6]
Cause and [C]effect
You need con[Cm]sistency[G][Bm][C]
[D][G][Bm][C][D][G][Bm][G][C][D][G]
How can you finish the [Bm]tale?
Lives which have [C]played
a part

[Verse 7]
[A]Are summarized from [D]the very start
And [C]episodes [G]left out[Am] to
make it [D]all go our [G]way

[Verse 8]
"It's a might big [Bm]world
[C]Some of it I've [A]seen
But mostly [D]I've only heard
[C]And stories [G]are all fic[Am]tion from their
[D]moment of birth"
[G][Am]

[Verse 9]
[D]
You're just [G]a storyteller
You're [Bm]not trying to
[C]escape respons[Cm]ibility
If we be[G]lieve you then
you're suc[Bm]cessful
But you [C]don't [Cm]make[G][Bm][C]
claims of [Cm]ver [G]ity

[Outro 1]
