Biografía:
Importante cantante y compositor de bonitas melodías folk, su primer sencillo “Taxi” logró un éxito inminente, pero sus primeros dos álbumes, “Head And Trais” y “Sniper And Other Love Songs” no disfrutarían del mismo éxito. Su tercer trabajo, “Short Stories”, permaneció en las listas unos seis meses gracias al sencillo “W.O.L.D.”. El disco “Verities And Balderdash” fue disco de oro y Chapin también consigue una nominación de la Academia por su documental “Legendary Champions” en 1968.

Sequel
Harry Chapin (klr)
So [G] here she's actin' [Em] happy, [D] inside her handsome [Bm] home
And [G] me, I'm flyin' in my [D] taxi, taking [C] tips [Bb] and
gettin' [D] stoned
I got into town a little early [D] [Am]
Had eight hours to kill before the show
First I though about heading up north of the bay
Then I [C] knew where I [Bb] had to go [D]
I thought about taking a limousine [D] [Am]
Or at least a fancy car
But I ended up taking a "Taxi'
'Cause [C] that's how I [Bb] this [D] far
You see [G] ten years ago it was the [Em] front seat
Drivin' [D] stoned and feelin' no [Bm] pain
Now [G] here I am straight and [D] sittin' in the back
Hitting [C] Sixteen [Bb] Parkside [D] Lane [C] [Bb] [D] [D]
[C] [E]
The driveway was the same as I remembered [E] [Bm]
And a butler came and answered the door
He just shook his head when I asked for her
And said "She [D] doesn't live [C] here [E] anymore [D] [C] [E]
But he offered to give me the address [E] [Bm]
That they were forwarding her letters to
I just took it and returned to the cabbie
And said "I got [D] one more [C] fare for [E] you." [D] [C] [E]
[E] And so we rolled back into the [G] city
Up to a [A] five story old brown [C] stone
I rang the [D] bell that had her name on the [E] mailbox
The [D] buzzer said somebody's [E] home [D] [C] [E] [C] [D]
[E]
[E] And the look on her face as she [G] opened the door
Was like an [A] old joke told by a [C] friend
It'd taken [D] ten more years but she'd [E] found her smile
And I [D] watched the corners start to [E] bend
And she [A] said, ?How are you [B7] Harry?
Haven't we [E] played this scene before??
I [A] said, "It's so good to [E] see you , Sue.
Had to [D] play it out [C] just once [E] more
[D]Play it out just once [E] more."
She said ?I've heard you flying high on my radio.? [E] [Bm]
I answered "It's not all it seem."
That's when she laughed and she said,
"It's better sometimes, when we don't [D] get to touch our [E] dreams."
[D - E] x2
That's when I [A] asked her where was that [F#m] actress
She [E] said "That was somebody [C#m] else."
And then I [A] asked her why she looked so [E] happy now
She said, "I [D] finally like myself, at last I like [E] myself."
[E] [Abm] [E7] [E7/Db] [F#m] [D7] [C] [E]
[E] So we talked all through that afternoon
[Abm] Talking about where we'd been
[E7] We talked of the tiny difference
[E7/Db] Between ending and starting to begin
[F#m] We talked ?cause talking tells you things
[D7] Like what you are really thinking about
[C] But sometimes you can't find what you're feeling
[E] ?Til all the words run out
So I asked her to come to the concert [E] [Bm]
She said ?No, I work at night."
I said, ?We've gotten to damn good at leaving, Sue."
She said, ?[D] Harry, [C] your [E] right." [D] [E] [D] [E]
Don't [A] ask me if I made [F#m] love to her
Or which [E] one of us started to cry.
Don't [A] ask me why she wouldn't take the [E] money that I left.
If I [D] answered at all I'D [E] lie. [D] [C] [E] [C] [Bb] [D]
So I thought about her as I sang that night [Am] [D]
And how the circle keeps rolling around
How I act as I'm facing the footlights
And how she's [C] flying with both [Bb] feet on the [D] ground
I guess [G] it's a sequel to our [Em] story
>From the [D] journey ?tween heaven and [Bm] hell
With [G] half the time thinking of what [D] might have been been
And [C] half thinkin' [Bb] just as [D] well
I guess [G] only [A7] time will [D] tell
