Intro : E A/E E A/E
AM7 How 'bout a tear G#m7 for the year of 1960 F#m7 I watched the fins E E7 of the Cadillac fall AM7 G#m7 I remember Dad explained D A - E about the Berlin Wall AM7 How 'bout a tear G#m7 for the torment and the trouble F#m7 E E7 That was brewing in the Asian way AM7 I wore a smile G#m7 D A - E like the faces that surround L.A. D Ddim In the city of the lost and found C#m7 F#m7 F#m - E It's hard to get a break D Ddim Hard to stop from getting turned around C#m7 F#7 And make the same mistakes A E/G# My reputation's on the line F#m7 E F#m7 - E/G# The final day of '59 A E/G# But like the sun, just watch me shine D A-E Today AM7 G#m7 How 'bout a cheer for the piano virtuoso F#m7 E E7 I practiced 61 minutes a day AM7 G#m7 I could never reach the keys D A-E But it was all OK AM7 G#m7 How 'bout a cheer for the humor in my brother F#m7 E E7 That could brighten up the darkest nights AM7 G#m7 It's just another sign of love D A - E Whenever we would fight D Ddim It's all the same twenty years ago C#m7 F#m7 F#m-E As it is right now D Ddim Like a tour at the closing show C#m7 F#7 When I take my bow A E/G# My reputation's on the line F#m7 E F#m7 - E/G# At the start of '79 A E/G# But like the sun, just watch me shine D A-E Today A E/G# I've played this part so many times F#m7 E F#m7 - E/G# Since the end of '59 A E/G# But like the sun, just watch me shine D A E G D D A (fade) Today
