Big Man On Mulberry Street by Billy Joel

G7          Bbmaj7  C/F
 Why can't I lay low
G7           Bbmaj7     C/F
 Why can't I say what I mean
G7          Bbmaj7 C/F
 Why don't I stay home
G7              Bbmaj7    C/F       Em7
 And get myself into some boring routine

Em7          A    Bm7
 Why can't I calm down
Em7        A        Bm7
 Why is it always a fight
Em7          A  Bm7
 I can't get unwound
Em7       Am           D9sus4   G7     F13
 Why do I throw myself into the night

[G7  F13] x 3

G7          Bbmaj7  C/F
 I'm on the outside
G7           Bbmaj7   C/F
 I don't fit into the groove
G7            Bbmaj7  C/F
 Now I ain't a bad guy
G7          Bbmaj7    C/F       Em7
 So tell me what am I trying to prove

Em7          A    Bm7
 Why can't I cool out
Em7          A         Bm7
 Why don't I button my lip
Em7       A    Bm7
 Why do I lash out
Em7        Am       D9sus4         Dm
 Why is it I always shoot from the hip

Dm                       Dmaj7/2+
I cruise from Houston to canal street
               Dm7     Bm7b5
A misfit and a rebel
Dm                              Dmaj7/2+
 I see the winds talking to themselves
               Dm7     Bm7b5 Em7/4-
And I can understand
Am7                        Emaj7
 Why is it every time I go out
                        C6      F#m7b5
I always seem to get in trouble
Am7                              Am/D
 I guess I made an impression on somebody
                             G7     F13
North of Hester and south of grand

[G7  F13] x 3

G7           Bbmaj7 C/F
 And so in my small way
G7                Bbmaj7   C/F
 I'm a big man on Mulberry street
G7           Bbmaj7 C/F
 I don't mean all day
G7       Bbmaj7         C/F         Em7
 Only at night when I'm light on my feet

Em7             A  Bm7
 What else have I got
Em7          A         Bm7
 That I'd be trying to hide
Em7      A     Bm7
 Maybe a blind spot
Em7        Am            D9sus4    Dm
 I haven't seen from the sensitive side

Dm   Dmaj7/2+  Dm7  Bm7b5
Dm  Dmaj7/2+ Dm7 Bm7b5 Em7/4-
Am7  Emaj7   C6   F#m7b5
Am7  Am/D

[G7  F13]  x 4

G7                 Bbmaj7 C/F
 But you know in my own heart
G7                Bbmaj7   C/F
 I'm a big man on Mulberry street
G7         Bbmaj7 C/F
 I play the whole part
G7         Bbmaj7       C/F     Em7
 I leave a big tip with every receipt

Em7       A  Bm7
 I'm so romantic
Em7         A          Bm7
 I'm such a passionate man
Em7          A Bm7
 Sometimes I panic
Em7        Am         D9sus4    G7   F13
 What if nobody finds out who I am

[G7  F13]
Repeat and Fade out
