It's Probably Me Sting
Here's my version of "It's Probably Me" by: Sting (for acoustic guitar).
I've arranged this a bit different the other versions by simplifying
some of the chords, and using a few chord substitutions when possible.
Sting wrote this with Eric Clapton, so it tends sound a bit different,
but if you practice the changes it works well (eerie yet very beautiful).
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns:

Sting - It's Probably Me
(Intro-2x) EmMaj9 Em6add9 Em7add9 Em6add9
(Verse-1)
If the night tu[EmMaj9]rned cold - and the stars [Em6add9]looked down
And you hug[Em7add9] yourself - on the cold[Em6add9] cold ground
You wake[Am7] the morning - in a stranger's c[Bm7]oat
No one would you s[Em]ee[G6] [Em]
(Chorus)
You ask your[Am7]self - who'd watch for m[Bm7]e
My only [Em]friend - who could it [Em/C#]be
It's hard to say [C]it[-] -[Cadd9] I hate to sa[B7]y it
it's probably [EmMaj9]me[-] [Em6add9] [-] [Em7add9] [-] [Em6add9]
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Verse-2)
When you belly'[EmMaj9]s empty - and the hunger's[Em6add9] so real
You're too [Em7add9]proud to beg - and too dumb to[Em6add9] steal
You sear[Am7]ch the city - for your only [Bm7]friend
No one would you[Em] see[G6] [Em]
(Chorus)
You ask [Am7]yourself, - who could it b[Bm7]e
A solita[Em]ry voice to speak out and set you fre[Em/C#]e
I hate t[C]o say it [Cadd9]- I hate to [B7]say it,
it's probably [EmMaj9]me[-] [Em6add9] [-] [Em7add9] [-] [Em6add9]
--------------------------------------------------------
(Bridge)
You're not the easi[Am7]est person I ever got to know[D] [-] [Dsus] [-] [D]
G (bass-walk-down G,F#,E) Em7
And it's hard for us both to let our feelings show
Some would say[Am7] I should let you go your way[D] [-] [Dsus] [-] [D]
You'll only make m[G]e cry
(Chorus)
[Am7]If there's one guy - just [Bm7]one guy
Who'd[Em] lay down his life for y[Em/C#]ou and die
It's har[C]d to say [Cadd9]it - It's ha[B7]rd to say it
but it's proba[EmMaj9]bly me[-] [Em6add9] [-] [Em7add9] [-] [Em6add9]
---------------------------------------------------------------
(Verse-3)
When th[EmMaj9]e world's gone crazy - and it make[Em6add9]s no sense
There's only [Em7add9]one voice that comes to your d[Em6add9]efence
When the jury's o[Am7]ut and your eyes sea[Bm7]rch the room
And one friendly face is all you ne[Em]ed to see[G6] [Em]
(Chorus)
If there's one[Am7] guy - just one [Bm7]guy
Who'd[Em] lay down his life for you[Em/C#] and die
It's hard to s[C]ay i[Cadd9]t - I hate [B7]to say it,
but it's probab[Am7]ly me[A7]
I hat[C]e to say [Cadd9]it - I hate to say[B7] it,
EmMaj9 - Em6add9 - Em7add9 - Em6add9 (repeat 2x)
it's probably me
