Em D - A E Em

On a long and lonesome highway east of Omaha

You can listen to the engines moaning out as one note song

You think about the woman or the girl you knew the night before

Em D a Em

But your thoughts will soon be wandering the way they always do

When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing much to do

A Em

And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

D Em

Here I am - on the road again

There I am - up on the stage

Here I go - playing star again

C D Em There I go - turn the page

So you walk into this restaurant strung out from the road

And you feel the eyes upon you, as you're shaking off the cold

You pretend it doesn't bother you, but you just want to explode

Yeah, most times you can't hear 'em talk, other times you can

Oh, the same old clich�s, "Is it woman? Is it man?"

And you always seem outnumbered, you don't dare make a stand

Make your stand

D Em Here I am - on the road again

There I am - up on the stageHere I go - playing star again

C D Em There I go - turn the page

Oo-ooh, out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away

Every ounce of energy you try to give away

A Em

As the sweat pours out your body like the music that you play, yeah

(only singing)

Later in the evening, you lie awake in bed

With the echoes of the amplifiers ringing in your head

You smoke the day's last cigarette, remembering what she said

What she said

He-ey

Yeah

D Em

Here I am - on the road again

D Em

There I am - up on the stage

D Em

Here I go - playing star again

C D Em

There I go - turn the page

C D Em

There I go - turn that page

There I go, yeah, yeah

There I go, yeah

Movin' out

written and performed by Billy Joel

from "The Stranger", 1977

Dm Gm

Anthony works in the grocery store

C F

savin' his pennies for someday

Dm Gm

Mama Leone left a note on the door,

C F

she said "Sonny, move out to the country"

Dm Gm

workin' too hard can give you a heart attack

Bb C

you ought to know by now

Dm Gm

who needs a house out in Hackensack?

C F

Is that what you get with your money?

Bb C

It seems such a waste of time

C7 A Dm

if that's what it's all about

Bb A7 Dm

if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

Seargent O'Leary is walkin' the beat

at night he becomes abartender

he works at Mister Cacciatore's down

on Sulliven Street

across from the medical center

he's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac

you ought to know by now

and if he can't drive with a broken back

at least he can polish the fenders.

It seems such awaste of time

if that's what it's all about

if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

You should never argue with a crazy mind

you ought to know by now

you can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime

is that all you get for your money?

It seems such awaste of time

if that's what it's all about

if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

NEW YORK STATE OF MIND Words & Music by Billy Joel

Album: Turnstiles (1976)

[C] Some folks like to [E7#9]get away

Take a [Am7]holiday from the [Gm7]neighbourhood [C7]

[F] Hop a flight to Mi[A7]ami Beach Or to [Dm7]Hollywood. [Bb9]

[C] But I'm [E7#9] takin' a [Am7]Greyhound [Cmaj7]

On the [F]Hudson [C]River line[D7]

[Fmaj7]I'm in a [G9sus]New York state of [Am7]mind [D7] [Am] [G] [G9sus]

I've seen all the movie stars

In their fancy cars and their limousines

Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens.

But I know what I'm needin'

And I don't want to waste more time

I'm in a New York state of [Am7]mind [G] [E7#9]

[Am7] It was so [D7]easy livin' [Gmaj7] day by day

[Gm7] Out of touch [C9] with the rhythm and [Fmaj7]blues

[Bm7] And now I [E7]need a little [Amaj7] give and take

The [Am7]New York [D7]Times

The [Gmaj7]Daily News [Dm7] [G7sus4] [G7]

Comes down to reality

And it's fine with me, 'cause I let it slide

don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside

I don't have any reasons

I've left them all behind

I'm in a New York state of mind [C]

Original Key Capo 2

E Amaj7 - Ooohh New York x2

E Amaj7

Grew up in a town that is famous as the place of movie scenes

Noise is always loud, there are sirens all around and the streets are mean

If I can make it here, I can make it anywhere, that's what they say

Seeing my face in lights or my name in marquees found down on Broadway

Ab Even if it ain't all it seems, I got a pocketful of dreams

Amaj7 Baby, I'm from New York

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of

There's nothing you can't do

Amaj7

Now you're in New York

These streets will make you feel brand new

Big lights will inspire you

Amaj7

Let's hear it for New York, New York, New Yoooork!

E Amaj7

On the avenue, there ain't never a curfew, ladies work so hard

Such a melting pot, on the corner selling rock, preachers pray to God

Hail a gypsy cab, takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge

Some will sleep tonight with a hunger for more than an empty fridge

I'm gonna make it by any means, I got a pocketful of dreams

Amaj7 E

ALTERNATE CHORDING

------------------

If you're a dude like me and you dig Ms. Keys but can't hit the notes well enough

in the orginal key try the following and move the capo up and down the neck until

you hit a range that you think you can handle.

For this example we'll play it down so even the high parts rest comfortably within a male range.

even rode my motorcycle in the rain. and you told me not to drive, but i made it home alive

a intro (4x)

but you may be right.

remember how i found you there,

alone in your electric chair i told you dirty jokes until you smiled.

you were lonely for a man, i said take me as i am

cause you might enjoy some madness for a while.

now think of all the years you tried to find some one to satisfy you

i might be as crazy as you say. if i'm crazy then it's true,

that it's all because of you and you wouldn't want me any other way.

It always seems to be so hard to give

[chorus]

Ebmaj7 F7 D Gm7 F - Eb F Bb D

Everyone is so untrue

Honest- y is hardly ever heard

But mostly what I need from you

I can always find someone to say they sympathize

All I want is someone to believe

Back to the howling old owl in the woodsHunting the horny black toad ... Oh I've finally decided my future lies

Beyond the yellow brick road... Ah..... Ah......

[VERSE 2]

What do you think you'll do then? I bet to shoot down your plane It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonics to set you on your feet again Maybe you'll get a replacement There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny

Sniffing for titbits like you on the ground... Ah.... Ah....

We’re so sorry Uncle Albert,

We’re so sorry but we haven’t heard a thing all day. We’re so sorry Uncle Albert, but if anything should happen we’ll be sure to give a ring.

Inter 2:[Gm7 C9] x3 [Gm7 C C#7 D C D]

We’re so sorry Uncle Albert, but we haven’t done a bloody thing all day. We’re so sorry Uncle Albert, but the lettle’s on the boil and we’re so easily called away.

D G/B D A

I've seen the lights go out on Broadway

Bm G A I saw the Empire State laid low.

F#m7 Bm And life went on beyond the Palisades,

B7sus2 D They all bought Cadillacs

A G And left there long ago.

D G/B D A They held a concert out in Brooklyn

Bm G A--Asus4-A To watch the Island bridges blow.

A G/B D

But we went right on with the show

INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A

I've seen the lights go out on Broadway

You know we almost didn't notice it

B7sus2 A G A

We'd see it all the time on Forty-Second Street.

D G/D D

They burned the churches up in Harlem

A G/B D

It always burned up there before

INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A

D G/D D I've seen the lights go out on Broadway

F#m7 Bm B7sus2 The boats were waiting at the Battery

B7sus2 A The union went on strike

G They never sailed at all.

D G/D D - Bm G A Asus2 A

They sent a carrier out from Norfolk

And picked the Yankees up for free.

D/F# G - D G/B - A G/B D

They said that Queens could stay

They blew the Bronx away

And sank Manhattan out at sea

INTERLUDE x2: D D A Asus4 A

D G D A You know those lights were bright on Broadway

Bm G A But that was so many years ago

F#m7 Bm B7sus2 Before we all lived here in Florida

B7sus2 A G Before the Mafia took over Mexico.

D G/D D A There are not many who remember

Bm G A They say a handful still survive

D/F# G To tell the world about
