## Lyrics
[verse]
It's nine o'clock in the corner café
Regulars drifting in from near and far
There's an old man asking me to play
Something that will chase his blues away

[chorus]
Play me a song, you're the piano man
Play me a song, help me if you can
We're all just strangers looking for a tune
To carry us away from the room

[verse]
There's a waitress counting all her tips
There's a soldier with a story on his lips
Everybody's got a road that brought them here
Looking for a moment, looking for a cheer

[chorus]
Play me a song, you're the piano man
Play me a song, help me if you can
We're all just strangers looking for a tune
To carry us away from the room

[bridge]
So I play the keys and let the night unwind
Every face a story, every note a kind of find
And when the café lights dim and the crowd goes home
I'm still the only company I've known

[chorus]
Play me a song, you're the piano man
Play me a song, help me if you can
We're all just strangers looking for a tune
To carry us away from the room
