[A] [C] [D]
[G] Who draws the [C] crowd, who plays so loud?
[D] Baby, it's the guitar man.
[G] Who's gonna steal [C] the show?
You know, baby, [D] it's the guitar man.
He [Em] can make you [Bm] laugh, he [C] can make you cry.
He [Em] will bring you down, he will get [A] you high.
[C]
Something keeps him going, [Bm]
miles and miles away,
[Am] to find another place [D] to play.
[G] Night after [C] night, who treats you right?
[D] Baby, it's the guitar man.
[G] Who's on the [C] radio?
You know, baby, [D] it's the guitar man.
When [E] he
[Em] comes to town and [C] you see his face,
and [Em] you think you [Bm] might [Am] like to take [A] his place.
[C]
Something keeps him drifting, [Bm]
miles and miles away,
[Am]
searching for the songs [D] to play.
Then [Am] you listen [G#m] to the music [G] and you'd like to sing [D] along.
[G] And you want to get [D] the meaning out [E] of each and every song.
[Am] And you find [E] yourself a message and [G] some words to call [D] your own
[E] and take them home.

Something keeps him moving, [Bm] but no one seems to know
[Am] what it is that makes [D] him go.
Then [Am] the lights begin [G#] to flicker and [Em] the sound is getting [D] dim.
[G] The voice begins [F#] to falter and [Em] the crowds [E] are getting thin.
But [Am] he never [E] seems to notice he's [C] just got to [D] find another [E] place to play.
