G                          C                            D
 Who draws the crowd?  Who  plays so loud? Baby its the  guitar man.
G                         C                            D
 Who's going to steal the  show? You know baby its the  guitar man.
           Em                     C
    He can make you love.  He can make you cry.
        Em                       A
He will bring you down and he'll get you high.  !
C7M                       Bm7                      Am7
Something keeps him going miles and miles a day to find
                 D
another place to play.
G                      C                              D
Night after night, who treats you right? Baby its the guitar man.
G                 C                          D
 Who's on the radio? You go to listen to the guitar man.
        Em                    C                     Em
When he comes to town and you see his face. And you think you
              A
might like to take his place.
C7M                          Bm7                   Am7
Something keeps him drifting miles and miles away, searching
                 D
for the songs to play.
    Am            E/G#          C6/G
You listen to the music and you like to sing
 D/F#        G               D/F#           Em
along.   You want to get the meaning out of each and
            E       Am              E/G#
every song. And you find yourself a message and some
C6/G                D/F#              E
 words to call your own and take them home.

C7M                              Bm7                  Am7
 Something keeps him moving, but no one seems to know what it
                  D
is that makes him go.
         Am              E/G#            C6/G
Then the lights begin to flicker and the sound is getting
    D/F#
Dim.
          G            D/G#        Em                      E
The voice begins to falter and the crowds are getting thin. 
       Am             E/G#              C6/G
But he never seems to notice he's  just got to find
 D/F#            E
another place to play.
