Piano Man by Billy Joel THis is my second tab (i think). Hopefully it's all right. G D Em It's nine o'clock on a saturday C A The regular crowd shuffles in G D Em There's an old man sitting next to me C D G Makin' love to his tonic and gin G D Em He says, "son, can you play me a memory? C A I'm not really sure how it goes G D Em But it's sad and it's sweet and i knew it complete C D G When i wore a younger man's clothes" Em D La la la, de de da Em D G La la, de de da da da Chorus: G D Em Sing us a song, you're the piano man C A Sing us a song tonight G D Em Well, we're all in the mood for a melody C D G And you've got us feelin' alright G D Em Now john at the bar is a friend of mine C A He gets me my drinks for free G D Em And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke C D G But there's someplace that he'd rather be G D Em He says, "bill, i believe this is killing me." C A As the smile ran away from his face G D Em "well i'm sure that i could be a movie star C D G If i could get out of this place" Em D Oh, la la la, de de da Em D G La la, de de da da da G D Em Now paul is a real estate novelist C A Who never had time for a wife G D Em And he's talkin' with davy who's still in the navy C D G And probably will be for life G D Em And the waitress is practicing politics C A As the businessmen slowly get stoned G D Em Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness C D G But it's better than drinkin' alone Chorus G D Em It's a pretty good crowd for a saturday C A And the manager gives me a smile G D Em 'cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see C D G To forget about life for a while G D Em And the piano, it sounds like a carnival C A And the microphone smells like a beer G D Em And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar C D G And say, "man, what are you doin' here?" Em D Oh, la la la, de de da Em D G La la, de de da da da Chorus www.TAB6.com
