Billy Joel

Biography:

Billy Joel (born William Martin Joel on May 9, 1949 in Bronx, New York, USA) is an American pianist, singer-songwriter, and composer. Since releasing his first hit song, "Piano Man," in 1973, Joel has become a multi-million-selling recording artist. Joel recorded many popular hit songs and albums from 1971 until he stopped recording pop/rock music in 1993. He is one of the very few rock (or even pop) artists to have Top 10 hits in the '70s, '80s, and '90s.

Dm7 Gm7 C
James... we were always friends,
F Cm D7
From our childhood days
Gm7 C
And we made our plans,
F Dm7 G F/C C
And we had to go our separate ways.
F7/9 Bb
I went on the road
E7 A
You pursued an education.

Dm7 Gm7 C
James...do you like your life,
F Cm D7
Can you find release,
Gm7 C
And will you ever change
F Dm7 G F/C C
Will you ever write your masterpiece.
F7/9 Bb
Are you still in school
E7 A
Living up to expectations...

|Dm|Bbmaj7|Am7|
James...
Abmaj7 Gm7
You were so relied upon
C9sus Bb F A
everybody knows how hard you tried
|Dm|Bbmaj7|Am7|
Hey...
Ab Gm7
just look at what a job you've done
C9sus C Asus A
Carrying the weight of family pride.

Dm7 Gm7 C
James... you've been well behaved,
F Cm D7
You've been working so hard
Gm7 C
But will you always stay
F Dm7 G F/C C
Someone else's dream of who you are.
F7/9 Bb
Do what's good for you
E7 A
or you're not good for anybody...

James

How you gonna know for sure

everything was so well organized.

now everything is so secure,
C9sus C Asus A
and everybody else is satisfied.

Dm7 Gm7 C
James... do you like your life,
F Cm D7
Can you find release
Gm7 C
And will you ever change,

When will you write your masterpiece.

or you're not good for anybody...
