Barry Manilow – A Linda Song (Guitar)

         C                F
He never wrote a song for Linda

            Am                     D
He wrote as though he lived alone

            G           C                    B
He wrote of dreams that end and of sad brave men

          Em                      E
Inventing worlds he never known

       Am            Gm       F
But he never wrote a song for Linda

    Em      Dm    C    F          D    E
And she was right there all along

          Am            Gm
Loved him back to life

         F         Em
When his luck ran low

       F             G          C       Fm    F  C
But he never wrote a Linda song

          C                  F
He nearly broke his heart at writing

      Am                     D
Linda kept him from despair

         G      C                 B
Standing by his side, through the hungry days

       Em                              E
But he hardly seemed to see her there

       Am            Gm       F
And he never wrote a song for Linda

    Em      Dm    C    F          D   E
And she was right there all along

    Am        Gm          F      Em
The one real thing in his crazy world

       F             G          C      Fm    F  C
And he never wrote a Linda song

C        C           G      F        Am
When the bills piled up and couldn't pay

A#                   C
He couldn't dream no more

      G                     Am
So he hitched a ride and he road away

       Fm              F            Am     D
And he left a note for Linda by the door

       G
By the door

     C                    F
When times got rough he'd phone her

        Am                       D
Once or twice she took the call

         G           C              B
Then she changed her number and she turned her head

    Em                               E
And Linda never looked back at all

            Am      Gm       F
He'll never write a song for Linda

    Em      Dm    C    F          D   E
And she was right there all along

Am     Gm               F    Em
All he knows, is no one understands

       F             G          C     Fm     F  C
And he never wrote a Linda song

       F             G          C     Fm     F  C
No, he never wrote a Linda song
