Chords for Billy Joel - Christie Lee (Audio)

_ Let me tell you a story _ _ about a woman and a _ _ [F] man.
Maybe you will [D] find familiar. _ _
_ Maybe you won't [G] understand. _ _
The man's name I don't remember. _ _
_ He was always [Am] so to [G] me. _
[F] _ But I can't_ _ _ _ _
_ [D] She was always [C] kissin' me. _ _
He was [Am] workin' in the _ [C] nightclub.
_ Swear he played the [Am] saxophone.
[G] _ _
[F] He used to fake the [D] stock arrangements. _
He left the customers [G] alone. _ _
One night before [Am] the last song. _
About a quarter after three.
[G] _ _
[Dm] So he's standin' at [G] the coat check. _
_ Made his move on Krystaline. _ _
_ _ Krystaline, Krystaline. _ _
[C] _ _ Krystaline, [Am] Krystaline.
_ [G] _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
She was a nice piece of music. _
She had a rhythm [Am] all her _ [G] own.
[F] He blew his [D] solo like a blind man. _
She really dug his [G] saxophone. _ _
She [Bm] wanted more than just an encore. _
And he could play in [A] every key. _ _
[F] He left the stage and [G] packed his out, though. _
_ Took it [C] home at the city.
[C] _ _
_ Oh, I [F] heard the man knew the birds like a Bible.
You [C] know the man could blow an educated axe.
He [F] couldn't see that Krystaline was a woman.
Who [D] didn't need another lover.
[G] All she wanted was the sax.
It took a while for [C] him to notice.
_ It took a while [Am] for him to _ see.
[F] _ He was never in [G] control here.
_ _ It was [C] always Krystaline. _ _ _ _ _ _
Krystaline, Krystaline. _ _ _ _
[Am] Krystaline, Krystaline.
_ [F] _ _ _ _
[G] The _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bb] man took a calculated gamble. _
[C] _ _ Hard to perform. _
[F] Krystaline was more than he knew how to handle.
[D] She didn't need him as a mate.
[G] All she wanted was the heart.
They say that Joe became a whiner. _
_ They say he always drinks alone. _
_ [F] They say he stumbles like [D] a blind man.
_ They say he's so distressed [G] and bold. _
_ Even the famous face [C] of music. _
_ That's what the [Am] moral is to me. _
_ [Dm] The only time [G] he hit the high notes
_ is when you play for Krystaline.
[C] _ _
_ _ _ Krystaline, Krystaline. _
_ _ _ [Am] Krystaline, Krystaline. _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ Krystaline, Krystaline. _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ Krystaline, [A] Krystaline. _ _
[F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [G] _ _
