piano man (live from radio 2's chris evans breakfast show) - tom odell lyrics

[verse 1]
it’s nine o’clock on a sat-rday
the regular crowd shuffles in
there’s an old man sitting next to me
making love to his tonic and gin

he says, “son, can you play me a memory
i’m not really sure how it goes
but it’s sad and it’s sweet and i knew it complete
when i wore a younger man’s clothes.”

[pre-chorus]
la la la, di da da
la la, di da da da dum

[chorus]
sing us a song, you’re the piano man
sing us a song tonight
’cause we’re all in the mood for a melody
and you’ve got us feeling alright

[verse 2]
now john at the bar he’s a friend of mine
he gets me my drinks for free
and he’s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
but there’s someplace that he’d rather be
he says, “bill, i believe this is k!lling me.”
as the smile runs away from his face
“well i’m sure that i could be a movie star
if i could get out of this place”

[pre-chorus]
la la la, di da da
la la, di da da da dum

[chorus]
sing us a song, you’re the piano man
sing us a song tonight
’cause we’re all in the mood for a melody
and you’ve got us feeling alright

[verse 3]
it’s a pretty good crowd for a sat-rday
and the manager gives me a smile
‘cause he knows that it’s me they’ve been comin’ to see
to forget about life for a while
and the piano, it sounds like a carnival
and the microphone smells like beer
and they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
and say, “man, what are you doin’ here?”

[pre-chorus]
la la la, di da da
la la, di da da da dum
one more time

[chorus]
sing us a song, you’re the piano man
sing us a song tonight
well, we’re all in the mood for a melody
and you’ve got us feeling alright
you’ve got us feeling alright

thank you
