_ [C] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [G] _ _
[F] _ _ [C] It's [G] nine o'clock [F] on a Saturday.
_ _ _ The regular crowd shuffles [D] in.
_ [G] _ [C] There's an old _ man [F] sitting next to [C] me,
making [F] love to [G] his Tarleton [C] gin.
_ [F] _
_ _ _ [F] _ He says, [C] son, can you [G] play [F] me a memory?
[C] _ [F] I'm not really [C] sure how it [D] _ [G] goes.
But [C] it's [Bm] very sweet, and I [F] knew it [C] complete
[F] when I wore [G] a young [C] man's clothes.
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ [Dm] _
_ [Am] _ _ _ [G] _ [C] Sing [A] us a song, you're [F] the piano [C] man.
[F]
Sing us a [C] song [D] _ [G] tonight.
[C] Because we're all in the mood [F] for a melody.
[C] _
_ [F] And you got [G] us feeling [C] all [F] right.
_ _ [G] _ _ [F] _ _ [C]
Now John at the bar, he's [F] a friend of [C] mine.
[F] He gets me [C] my drinks for [D] free.
_ [G] _
[C] And he's quick with a choke, or [F] to light up [C] your smoke.
[F] But there's some place [G] that he'd [C] rather be.
[F] _ _ _ [G] _ _ He [C] says, Ben, I [G] believe this is [Dm] killing [C] me.
As a [F] smile runs [C] away from [D] his [G] face.
But [C] I'm sure I could be [F] a movie [C] star
_ [F] if I could [G] get out [C] of this play.
_ _ [Am] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _
[C] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ [D] _ _ [Em] _ _ [D] _
[C] Sing us a [G] song, [F] you're the piano [C]
man.
[F] Sing us a [C] song [D] _
[G] tonight.
[C] Because we're all in the [G] mood [F] for a [C] melody.
_ [F] And you got [G] us feeling all right.
[F] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [F] _
[C] It's a pretty good [Em] crowd [A] for a Saturday.
[C] _ And [F] the manager [C] gives me a [D]
smile.
_ [G] Because he [C] knows [G] that it's me [Am] they've
been coming to [C] see [F] to forget [G] about life for a while.
[F] _ _ [G] _ _
And the [C] piano [G] sounds [F] like a [C] carnival.
And [F] the microphone smells [D] like [G] beer.
And they [C] sit at the [G]
bar and [F] put bread in my [G] jar.
Say, man, what [G] are you [C] doing here?
La [Am] da _ [C] _ da da [D] da. _ _ _
[Am] _ [C] La da da da [D] da. _ _
_ [G] _ _ One more time.
[C] _ _
[A] _ _ Sing us a [G] song, you're [F] the piano [C] man.
_ [F] Sing us a [C] song [D] tonight.
_ [G] Because we're [C] all in the [G] mood for [Am] a melody.
[C] _ And [F] you got [G] us feeling [Am] all right.
[D] _ _ [Dm] You got [G] us feeling _ all _ _ _ right.
_ [C] _ _ _
