OK, here it goes. Ive been working for a couple of weeks trying to make
sense of this wonderful song (especially the middle section!).
I have not found any correct tabs/chords on the Internet.
I have transposed it so that it is playable and singable
for us immortals (if youre not Sting of course :-)
If you want to sing along with Sting, put the capo on the 3rd fret.
Good luck!

TOMORROW WELL SEE (Sting, 1999)
(Singing starts at E and goes right up to B)
(The beginning is much the same as the middle 8
i.e. move notes downward from C#-C-B-Bb-G-F-e-D-C-B)
[Em6/9] 0x2022 Clarinet: [Bbm7aug] x1x122 [Cm7aug] x2x233 [G/D] / [A/E] [Bb/A] [Am/B] /

(Bass begin: B, D (open string), B...use your second finger on the 2nd fret of the 2nd string
from the top, keep it there for both these chords throughout the song)

[Em6/9] 022022 The streets are wet, the [B7aug(b9)] x21213 lights have yet
[Em6/9] to shed their darkened luster on the [B7aug(b9)] scene.
[Em6/9] My skirt's too short, my tights [B7aug(b9)] have run,
[Em6/9] these new heels are killing me.
[Em6/9] My second pack of cigarettes, it's a [B7aug(b9)] slow night, but there's time yet.
[Em6/9] Here comes john from his other life, he [B7aug(b9)] may be driving to his wife.
[Em6/9] But hell slow down, take a look, I've [B7aug(b9)] learned to read them just like books.
[Em6/9] It's already half past ten, but they'll be back again.
[Em6/9] Head lights in the rainy street, I [B7aug(b9)] check, make sure it's not the heat.
[Em6/9] I wink, I smile, I wave my hand. He [B7aug(b9)] stops, he seems to understand
a [Em6/9] small transaction we must make, I [B7aug(b9)] tell him that my heart will break if he's
[Em6/9] not a generous man, I step into his van.
[Em6/9] They say the first's the hardest trick, and [B7aug(b9)] after that it's
just a matter of logic.
[Em6/9] They have the money I have the time, [B7aug(b9)] being pretty's my only crime.
[Em6/9] You ask what future do I see, I [B7aug(b9)] say it's really up to me
[Em6/9] I don't need forgiving, I'm just making a living.
Chorus: [Am7] Don't judge me, [B7] you could be [Em6/9] me in another life,
in [Em9] 022032 another set of circumstances.
[Am7] Don't judge me, [Am7/C] one more night ,
I'll just have [Cmaj7aug/B] x2100x to take my chances,
[B7aug(b9)] and tomorrow we'll [Em7] see.

A [G11/D] x53453 friend of mine he wound up dead,
his [D1] xx0x47 dress was [D2] xx0x46 stained the [D3] xx0x35 colour [D4] xx0x33 red.
No [G1] xxxx22 next of [G2] xxxx02 kin, no [G3] xxx3x2 fixed [G4] xxx0x2 abode,
[G6/7] xx345x another [G7] xx343x victim [F6/7] xx123x on this [F7] xx121x road.
The [Em6/9] police just carted him away, but [Am7] x02013 someone took his place next day.
[Em6/9] Home by Thanksgiving, but not with the living.

[B/Eb] someone to [F#m7(b5)] 2x110x care who I [B7aug(b9)] am.
(Here Sting starts playing 1/2 step up [Fm6/9], but I dont...sue me)
[Em6/9] I walk in the streets for [B7aug(b9)] money,
it's the [Em6/9] business of love, hey [B7aug(b9)] honey, come on!
[Em6/9] Don't leave me lonely, [B7aug(b9)] don't leave me sad,
[Em6/9] I'll be the sweetest five minutes you'll ever have.
