THE ENTERTAINER
By: Billy Joel
Key: G
3 5 5 5 -4 -44 4
I am the en-ter-tain-er,
4 4 -5 -5 -5 -6 -6
And I know just where I stand:
-5 -6 -6 -6 6 -66 6
An-oth-er ser-en-ad-er,
5 -5 6 6 6 5 -4
And an-oth-er long-haired band.
-4 5 5 5 -4 -4 4 4
To-day I am your champ-i-on.
4 -5 -5 -5 -6 -6
I may have won your hearts.
-6 -6 -6 -6 -7
But I know the game,
-6 -6 -6 6 6
You�ll for-get my name,
-5 -5 -5 -5 6
And I won't be here
-5 -5 5 -4 -4
In an-oth-er year,
-3�-3� 3 3 -3 -4 4
If I don't stay on the charts.
3 5 6 6 5 -4 4 4
I am the en-ter-tain-er,
4 4 -5 -5 -5 -6 -6
And I've had to pay my price.
-5 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 6 6
The things I did not know at first,
4 6 6 6 5 -4
I learned by do-in' twice.
5 5 5 5 -4 -4 4
But still they come to haunt me,
-5 -5 -5 -6 -6
Still they want their say.
-6 -6 -6 -6 -7
So I've learned to dance
-6 -6 -6 6 6 6
With a hand in my pants,
-5 -5 -5 -5 6
And I rub my neck,
-5 -5 5 -4 -4 -4
And I write 'em a check,
4 4 3 3 -3 -4 4
And they go their mer-ry way.
I am the entertainer,
Been all around the world.
I've played all kinds of palaces,
And laid all kinds of girls.
I can't remember faces,
I don't remember names.
Ah, but what the hell,
You know it's just as well.
'Cause after a while
And a thousand miles,
It all becomes the same.
I am the entertainer,
I bring to you my songs.
I'd like to spend a day or two.
I can't stay that long.
No, I've got to meet expenses.
I got to stay in line.
Gotta get those fees
To the agencies.
And I'd love to stay,
But there's bills to pay,
So I just don't have the time.
I am the entertainer,
I come to do my show.
You've heard my latest record,
It's been on the radio.
Ah, it took me years to write it,
They were the best years of my life.
It was a beautiful song.
But it ran too long.
If you're gonna have a hit,
You gotta make it fit--
So they cut it down to 3:05.
I am the entertainer,
The idol of my age.
I make all kinds of money,
When I go on the stage.
Ah, you've seen me in the papers,
I've been in the magazines.
But if I go cold,
I won't get sold.
I'll get put in the back
In the discount rack,
Like another can of beans.
I am the entertainer,
And I know just where I stand:
Another serenader,
And another long-haired band.
Today I am your champion.
I may have won your hearts.
But I know the game,
You will forget my name,
And I won't be here
In another year,
If I don't stay on the charts.
