Stories We Could Tell Lyrics

By: John B. Sebastian, 1974
Intro: D Dsus2
Talkin' to myself again
Wonderin' if this travellin' is good
Is there somethin' else a' doin'
We'd be doin' if we could
Chorus:
But ah, the stories we could tell
And if it all blows up and goes to Hell
G A D G rundown bass F# into Em7
I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel
Listen to the stories we could tell
Stared at that guitar in that museum in Tennessee
Nameplate on the glass brought back twenty melodies
D G rundown bass F# into Em7
Scars upon the face told of all the times he fell
Singin' all the stories he could tell
Chorus:
Ah, the stories he could tell
And I'll bet you it still rings like a bell
I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel
And listen to the stories it could tell
So if you're on the road trackin' down your every night
Playin' for a livin' beneath brightly colored lights
D G rundown bass F# into Em7
And if you ever wonder why you ride the carousel
You do it for the stories you can tell
Chorus:
Ah, the stories we could tell
And if it all blows up and goes to Hell
I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel
Just listen to the stories we could tell
I wish that we could sit upon a bed in some motel
And listen to the stories we could tell
