I Love Her But She Loves Someone Else chords by Sting

Verse 1:
 Am
When a man of my age shaves his face in the morning
 E                 Dm
Who is it that stares back and greets him?
  Dm            G
The ghost of his father long dead all these years?
    Dm           F
Or the boy that he was, still wet in the ears?
    E          Am
Or the terrible sum of all of his fears
    B                Am
In the eyes of this stranger who meets him?
    Am
So his glance rarely strays from his chin or his jawline
  E              Dm
To face up to the truth of his soul
     Dm        G
It's the eyes he avoids so afraid to acknowledge
     F          G
Something strange, unexpected, out of control
     C
There are times when a man needs to brave his reflection
  G             Am
And face what he sees without fear
      Am        F
It takes a man to accept his mortality
   Dm               E
Or be surprised by the presence of a tear
    Am           Dm
It was only an arrangement, a practical arrangement
 B                  E
I forgot the first commandment of the realist's handbook
     Am           Dm
Don't be fooled by illusions you created yourself
  B                  E       Am
And fall in love with someone, when she loves someone else

    Am          E
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
  Dm               C  G
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
     Am                 C
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
Fm             Dm      Am
You still love her but she loves someone else

B

Verse 2:
  Em
And where does that leave you?
  B
You self-styled man of vision
  G               E
You feel stupid, you feel angry, are you losing your mind?
  Am             E
To destroy the one she loves, does that become your mission?
    E             Am
Like a pantomime villain with an axe to grind?
  Dm                 Em
To regain your self-respect, hold your head up like a man
    Am                Dm
Use the ice around your heart before it melts
        Am              Dm   Am
But you're not fooling anybody, you're only fooling yourself



    F           A#m
Like a covering of snow on a winter's night
  G#               C#
It glistens and it sparkles in the moonlight
     F                  C#
But it's gone by the morning, how quickly it melts
       Gm     F#     F       A#m
And still you still love her but she loves someone else
