Chess - Nobodys Side

B  E

[Verse]
B
What’s going on around me
F#m
Is barely making sense
C#m
I need some explanations fast
A         B              F#
I see my present partner
F#m       A
In the imperfect tense
C#m
And I don't see how we can last

I feel I need a change of cast

[Chorus]
A            E
Maybe I'm on nobody's side

[Verse]
B
And when he gives me reasons
F#m
To justify each move
C#m
They're getting harder to believe
            B     A
I know this can't continue
F#m          A           B
I've still a lot to prove
C#m
There must be more I could achieve

But I don't have the nerve to leave

[Chorus]
A           E           B
Everybody's playing the game
             G#m           A
But nobody's rules are the same
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
A               E        B
Better learn to go it alone
                 G#m         A
Recognize you're out on your own
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side

[Verse]
    A
The one I should not think of
F#m
Keeps rolling through my mind
C#m
And I don't want to let that go
           B
No lover's ever faithful
F#m         A   B  C#m
No contract truly signed

There's nothing certain left to know

E  C#m

            B          C#m  A
And how the cracks begin to show

[Chorus]
             E          B
Never make a promise or plan
              G#m            A
Take a little love where you can
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
A              E            B
Never stay too long in your bed
                G#m             A
Never lose your heart, use your head
            E        Bm
Nobody's on nobody's side

F#  Bm  F#  C#m  G#m G#7 E  G#7

A            E          B
Never take a stranger's advice
            G#m      E      A
Never let a friend fool you twice
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
A            E        B
Never be the first to believe
                  E    A
Never be the last to deceive
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
A             E          B
Never leave a moment too soon
                  E    A
Never waste a hot afternoon
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
A            E          B
Never stay a minute too long
                 G#m    E     A
Don't forget the best will go wrong
            E        B
Nobody's on nobody's side
