It's [C]nine o'c[G/B]lock on a [F/A]Saturday　[C/G]

[F]The regular [C/E]crowd shuffles [D7]in　[G]

There's an [C]old man [G/B]sitting [F/A]next to me　[C/G]

Makin' [F]love to his [F/G]tonic and [C]gin

 

[C]　[G/B]　[F/A]　[C/G]

[F]　[F/G]　[C]　[F/C]

 

He says, [C]"Son, can you [G/B]play me a [F/A]memory　[C/G]

I'm [F]not really sure [C/E]how it [D7]goes　[G]

But it's [C]sad and it's [G/B]sweet and I [F/A]knew it complete　[C/G]

When [F]I wore a [F/G]younger man's [C]clothes."　[G/B]

 

[Am]la la la, [C/G]di di [D/F#]da　[F]

[Am]La la, [C/G]di di [D/F#]da da [G]dum

[F]Sing us a [C/E]song to[D7]night　[G]

Well, we're [C]all in the [G/B]mood for a [F/A]melody　[C/G]

And [F]you've got us all [F/G]feelin' alright　[C]

Now [C]John at the bar [G/B]is a [F/A]friend of mine　[C/G]

He [F]gets me my [C/E]drinks for [D7]free　[G]

And he's [C]quick with a joke [G/B]or to [F/A]light up your smoke　[C/G]

But there's [F]some place that [F/G]he'd rather [C]be　[F/C]

 

He says, [C]"Bill, I be[G/B]lieve this is [F/A]killing me."　[C/G]

As a [F]smile ran a[C/E]way from his [D7]face　[G]

"Well I'm [C]sure that I [G/B]could be a [F/A]movie star　[C/G]

If [F]I could get [F/G]out of this [C]place"　[G/B]

 

Oh, [Am]la la la, [C/G]di di [D/F#]da　[F]

[Am]La la, [C/G]di di [D/F#]da da [G]dum

 

[G7/F]　[C/E]　[G/D]

 

Now [C]Paul is a [G/B]real estate [F/A]novelist　[C/G]

Who [F]never had time [C/E]for a [D7]wife　[G]

And he's [C]talkin' with Davy [G/B]who's [F/A]still in the Na[C/G]vy

And [F]probably [F/G]will be for [C]life

 

[C]　[G/B]　[F/A]　[C/G]

[F]　[F/G]　[C]　[F/C]

 

And the [C]waitress is [G/B]practicing [F/A]politics　[C/G]

As the [F]businessman [C/E]slowly gets [D7]stoned　[G]

Yes, they're [C]sharing a [G/B]drink they call [F/A]loneliness　[C/G]

But it's [F]better than [F/G]drinkin' [C]alone　[G/B]

It's a [C]pretty good crowd [G/B]for a [F/A]Saturday　[C/G]

And the [F]manager [C/E]gives me a [D7]smile　[G]

'Cause he [C]knows that it's [G/B]me they've been [F/A]comin' to see　[C/G]

To for[F]get about [F/G]life for a [C]while　[F/C]

 

And the [C]piano [G/B]sounds like a [F/A]carnival　[C/G]

And the [F]microphone [C/E]smells like a [D7]beer　[G]

And they [C]sit at the bar [G/B]and put [F/A]bread in my [C/G]jar

And say, [F]"Man, what are [F/G]you doin' [C]here?"　[G/B]

 

Oh, [Am]la la la, [C/G]di di [D/F#]da　[F]
