Lyrics

It's (C)nine (Em)o'clock on a (Am)Saturday,

(C)the (F)regular (C)crowd shuffles (D7)in.

There's an (C)old man sitting (Am)next to me makin' (F)love to his (G11)tonic and (C)gin.

(G11)He says, (C)"Son, can you (Em)play me a (Am)memory?

I'm (F)not really (C)sure how it (D7)goes,

but it's (C)sad and it's (Em)sweet and I (Am)knew it (C)complete when (F)I wore a (G11)younger man's (C)clothes."

(Am)Da da da de de (D7)da,

(Am)da da de de (D7)da da da.

(C)Sing us a (Em)song, you're the (Am)piano man.

(F)Sing us a (C)song (D7)tonight.

Well, we're (C)all in the (Em)mood for a (Am)melody,

(C)and (F)you've got us (G11)feelin' (C)alright.

(G11)Now (C)John at (Em)bar is a (Am)friend of mine.

(C)He (F)gets me my (C)drinks for a (D7)free,

and he's (C)quick with or to (Am)light up me but there's (F)someplace his (G11)he'd rather (C)be.

(G11)He says, (C)"Bill, I (Em)believe this is (Am)killing me,"

as (F)smile ran (C)away from his (D7)face.

"Well, I'm (C)sure that I (Em)could be a (Am)movie my (C)star if (F)I could get (G11)out of this (C)place."

(Am)Da da da de de (D7)da,

(Am)da da de de (D7)da da da.

(C)Sing us a (Em)song, you're the (Am)piano man.

(F)Sing us a (C)song (D7)tonight.

Well, we're (C)all in the (Em)mood for a (Am)melody,

(C)and (F)you've got us (G11)feelin' (C)alright.

(G11)Now
