arranged for piano

1 . someone like him
fade in
when i play the intro i use : Fm C#m Fm A#m Fm C#m Fm
then when the guitar comes in : fmajor C#m7 Dm7 C# ( twice )
flute solo : | = bar line
Fm | Fm | Fm | Fm | Cm | A#m | Fm | D#/G | G# | C/E | Fm Fm/D# |
Dm7b5 | Fdim | C/E | C/E
then :
Fm | C#m | Fm | C#m |
Fm C#m Fm G#m D#
i never wanted to become someone like him , so secure
G# Cm D
content to live each day just like the last
Bm7b5
i was sure i knew that
A C#m D9
this was not for me
A C#m C
and i wanted so much more
Em A# Dm
far beyond what i could see
C#
so i swore that i’d
A# Dm F#m F#m
never be someone like him
Fm C#m
so many years have passed
Fm G#m
since i proclaimed
D#/A#
my independance
G#m
my mission
D#/A#
my aim
G#m
and my vision
D#
so secure
G#m D#/G D/F#
content to live each day like it’s my last
Bm7 A
it’s wonderful to know
C#m D9
that i could be
A C#m C
something more than what i dreamed
Em A# Dm
far beyond what i could see
C# A#
still i swear that i’m
C#
missing out this time
E/B A/B
as far as i could tell
E/B B
there’s nothing more i need
E/B A/B
but still i ask myself
Em/B B
could this be everything
B
then all i swore
A# A#/F D/A
that i would never be was now
F#m/C#
so suddenly
Am/E
the only thing
Em
i wanted
D
to become
Dm/F A
to be someone just like him
the timing might not be perfect but the chords are definately correct
to see my version of someone like ( starting from flute solo ) him go to :
2 . mediate ( awakening )
bass solo then : A | Dm/F | A | Dm/F
A Dm/F
a doctor sitting next to me
A
he asked me how i feel
Dm/F
not sure i understand his questioning
A Dm/F
he says i’ve been away a while
F#m
but thinks he has cured me
F
from a state of catatonic sleep
D F
for 30 years
A
where have i been
D/F#
eyes open
F A
but not getting through to me
A
medicate me
Am/F
infiltrate me
A/F# Am/F
side effects appear
A
as my conscience slips away
A
medicate me
Am/F
science failing
A/F# Am/F
conscience fading fast
A | Dm/F | A | Dm/F ( stop and sustain – 1 bar )
can’t you stop what’s happening
A Dm/F
a higher dosage he prescribes
A
but there’s no guarantee
Dm/F
i feel it starting to take over me
A Dm/F
i tell him not to be ashamed
F#m
there’s no one who’s to blame
F
a second shot , a brief awakening
D F
i feel the relapse
A
can’t break free
D/F#
eyes open
F A
but not getting through to me
A
medicate me
Am/F
infiltrate me
A/F# Am/F
side effects appear
A
as my conscience slips away
A
medicate me
Am/F
science failing
A/F# Am/F
conscience fading fast
A
can’t you stop what’s happening
the chords definitely sound right when you play it but i dont think
theyre exactly the same as the dream theater version . my version of
