Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
This song is originally from Billy's first solo album, Cold Spring Harbor, released
November 1971. A fantastic live version of this song is on Songs In The Attic, Billy Joel's
first live album, which was recorded in June - July 1980 during the Glass Houses tour
and was released September 10, 1981. Songs In The Attic features songs from Cold Spring
Harbor in a better form, since Billy's first album was sped up in studio and he "sounded
like a chipmunk." He wasn't happy with the sound of the album, so Songs In The Attic
was a way to make it better and sound more raw and personal.
Intro:
C F x4
C Dm
Baby all the lights are turned on you
F C
Now you're in the center of the stage
C Dm
Everything revolves on what you do
F C
Ah, you are in your prime; you've come of age
Am6 C/G F C/E G
And you can always have your way somehow
F G C
But everybody loves you now
[Intro]
C Dm
You can walk away from your mistakes
F C
You can turn your back on what you do
C Dm
Just a little smile is all it takes
F C
Yeah, you can have your cake and eat it too
Am6 C/G F C/E G
Loneliness will get to you somehow
F G C
But everybody loves you now
Bb F/A C
Ah, they all want your white body
Bb F/A C
And they await your reply
Bb F/A C C (B) Am
Ah, but between you and me and the Staten Island ferry
G F#dim Fm
So do I
C Dm
All the people want to know your name
F C
Soon there will be lines outside your door
C Dm
Feelings do not matter in your game
F C
Yeah, 'cause nothing's gonna touch you anymore
Am6 C/G F C/E G
So your life is only living anyhow
F G C
And everybody loves you now
C Dm
Close your eyes when you don't want to see
F C
Stay at home when you don't want to go
C Dm
Only speak to those who will agree
F C
Yeah, and close your mind when you don't want to know
Am6 C/G F C/E G
You have lost you innocence somehow
F C
But everybody loves you now
Bb F/A C
Ah, you know that nothing lasts forever
Bb F/A C
And it's all been done before
Bb F/A C Am
Ah, but you ain't got the time to go to Cold Spring Harbor
G F#dim Fm
No more
C Dm
See how all the people gather 'round
F C
Hey, isn't it a thrill to see them crawl?
C Dm
Keep your eyes ahead and don't look down
F C
Yeah, and lock yourself inside your sacred wall
Am6 C/G F C/E G
This is what you wanted; ain't you proud?
F G C
'Cause everybody loves you now
This is a very fun song to play, just like all of Billy Joel's songs. The man's a hit-maker.
Stay groovy and keep on rockin'.
