[B] [Bm] [Db] [Bm]
[G] [Bm]
Am I asking for the moon?
[G] Is it [D] really so implausible
That [G]
you and I could [D] soon
[A] [D] Come to some kind of arrangement?
[B] [Gb] [Bm] I'm not asking for the [Gbm] moon
I've [G] always been a [D] realist
When [E] it's [G] really nothing more
[A] [Gbm] Than a simple [B] rearrangement
[Gb] With [Bm] one roof above our [Gb] heads
A [Gbm] warm house to return [A] to
[Em] We could start with [G] separate beds
[A]
I [D] could sleep alone
[Gb] Or learn to
[Bm] I'm not suggesting that we'd [D] find
Some earthly [Ab] paradise [Em] [A] forever
[Bm] I [G] mean how often does that happen now?
[Bm] The answer's probably [Gb] never
But [G] we could come to an arrangement
A [Em] practical arrangement
[G] And you could [Gb] learn to love me
[Gbm] [Bm] Given time
[Gm]
[E] Well [A] I [C] like my independence
I get by
I'm not greedy
[F] Do you see yourself as Galahad?
[G]
[C] Do I really look that [A] [E] needy?
I [Am] brought a child up on my own
[C] Takes me all my strength to face him
[Dm] The father upped [F] and left me
[G] And [Em] I'm not desperate to [A] replace him
[E] [Am] Tell me what kind of
Is [Em] a struggling single mother
[G] [Dm] I respect you
[F] And I like [G] you
[C] But I won't [A] accept another
[E] Empty [Am] promise
[C] When some grey and [Gb] stormy rain
[Dm]
[F] When I've heard it all a hundred times
[Am] From a man who said [E] he loved me
But [F] if we [Am] came to an arrangement
[Dm] A practical [A] arrangement
Then perhaps [B] I'd [E] learn to love you [Am] Given time
[D] I'm
[Gm] [G] [Cm] not promising a moon
I'm [Ab] not promising a rainbow
Just [Cm] a practical solution
[Bb]
To [Eb] a solitary life
[G] I'd be [Gm] a father to your boy
[Cm] [Ab] A shoulder you could lean on
[Fm] [Ab] How bad could it be
[Bb] To be [Gm] my [G] wife
With [Cm] one roof above our heads
[D] [Gm] A warm house to [D] return [Bb] to
You [Fm] wouldn't have to cook for me
[Bb] [Eb] You wouldn't have to learn [C] to
[G]
I'm [Cm] not [Eb] suggesting that this proposition [G] here
[Cm] Could last forever
[Ab] I've no intention of deceiving [Db] you
You're [Cm]
[Gm] far too [G] clever
But [Ab] we could come to an arrangement
A [Cm] practical [D] arrangement
And [C] perhaps you'd learn to love [G] me
[Gm]
[Eb] Given time
[Ab] It may not be the [Eb] romance
That [G] you [A] had [Bb] in mind
But [D] you could learn to love [G] me
Given time
[C] [D]

To start learning Sting - (Full Original Duet) Practical Arrangement chords, build your understanding on these basic chords - A, E, Am, C, G, Cm, D and Gm in sequence. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 52 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 105. Set the capo considering your vocal range and favored chords, aligned with the key: D Major.
