{st: Billy Joel}

[Asus4/D][Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
[Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]

She [Dm]waits for me at [Am7/C]night
She [Bb]waits for me in [Am7/C]silence
She [Dm]gives me all her [Am7/C]tenderness
[Gm]And takes away [Gm/A]my [Bb]pain [C]
And so [Dm]far she hasn't [Am7/C]run
Though I [Bb]swear she's had her [Am7/C]moments
She [Dm]still believes in [Am7/C]miracles
[Gm]while others [Gm/A]cry in [Bb]vain

   It's all about [F]soul [C/E][Bb/D]
   It's all about [F/C]faith and a deeper de[C/G]votion
   It's all about [F/A]soul [C][Bb]
   'Cause under the [F/C]love is a stronger e[C/G]motion
   She's got to be [Dm]strong [G]
   'Cause so many [C]things getting out of con[F]trol
   Should drive her [Bb]away, so why does she [F/A]stay?
   It's all about [Asus4/D]soul[Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]
   [Asus4/D][Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]

She [Dm]turns to me some[Am7/C]times
And [Bb]asks me what I'm [Am7/C]dreaming
And I [Dm]realize I [Am7/C]must have gone
[Gm]A million miles [Gm/A]A[Bb]way [C]
And I [Dm]ask her how she [Am7/C]knew
To [Bb]reach out for me that [Am7/C]moment
And she [Dm]smiles because it's [Am7/C]understood
[Gm]there are no words [Gm/A]to [Bb]say

   It's all about [F]soul [C/E][Bb/D]
   It's all about [F/C]knowing what someone is [C/G]feeling
   The woman's got [F/A]soul [C][Bb]
   The power of [F/C]love and the power of [C/G]healing
   This life isn't [Dm]fair [G]
   It's gonna get [C]dark, it's gonna get [F]cold
   You've got to get [Bb]tough, but that ain't e[F/A]nough
   It's all about [Asus4/D]soul[Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]
   [Asus4/D][Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]

   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na, OhOh[Dm]Oh
   It's all about soul
   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na

   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na, OhOh[Dm]Oh
   It's all about soul
   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na

There are [Dm]people who have [Am7/C]lost
Every [Bb]trace of human [Am7/C]kindness
There are [Dm]many who have [Am7/C]fallen
There are [Gm]some who still [Gm/A]sur[Bb]vive [C]
She [Dm]comes to me at [Am7/C]night
And she [Bb]tells me her [Am7/C]desires
And she [Dm]gives me all the [Am7/C]love I need
[Gm]To keep my faith [Gm/A]A[Bb]live

   It's all about [F]soul [C/E][Bb/D]
   It's all about [F/C]joy that comes out of [C/G]sorrow
   It's all about [F/A]soul [C][Bb]
   Who's standing [F/C]now and who's standing to[C/G]morrow
   You've got to be [Dm]hard [G]
   Hard as the [C]rock in that old rock 'n' [F]roll
   But that's only [Bb]part, you know in your [F/A]heart
   It's all about [Asus4/D]soul[Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]
   [Asus4/D][Dm] [Asus4/D][Dm]
   [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb] [Bbsus4/Eb][Eb]

   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na, OhOh[Dm]Oh
   It's all about soul
   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na

   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na, OhOh[Dm]Oh
   It's all about soul
   [Gm7]NaNa [C7]NaNa [Gm]NaNa [Am]Na
