Chords

[Intro] | A | A | A | A | A | [Verse 1]
    A                        A
He stands there like demon a guitar for a pitch fork

   A                     E               A
A stare that looks right through to your soul

   A                                      A
He knows they've come to see him and they know wonder why

   A                        E                 A
He can't stand still and he look so tired and old
[Chorus]
       D
Sing a song, try not to think

A
Act like it don't hurt

A                            E
Sing a song to cover up your cry

         D
Make 'em laugh, let 'em dance

A
You know that you'll make it

    A                   E                A
But they don't know how hard you have to try
[Instrumental] | A | A | A | A | [Verse 2]
        A                                 A
With a smile that charms the women and a snare that makes men nervous

   A               E               A
He sings a song of lovin' fightin' man

         A                             A
The band wonders how he's done it from what the world did to him

    A            E                A
And why it never happen like they plan
[Chorus]
       D
Sing a song, try not to think

A
Act like it don't hurt

A                            E
Sing a song to cover up your cry

         D
Make 'em laugh, let 'em dance

A
You know that you'll make it

    A                   E                A
But they don't know how hard you have to try
[Piano solo] | D | A | A E | A | [Instrumental] | A | A | A | [Verse 3]
   A                               A
He pours out songs like water with each one he seem stronger

     A                 E             A
From somewhere comes a new found energy

   A                                A
He gives them half his heart and a slow song love ballad

      A               E            A
And I feel a kindred spirit within me
[Chorus]
       D
Sing a song, try not to think

A
Act like it don't hurt

A                            E
Sing a song to cover up your cry

         D
Make 'em laugh, let 'em dance

A
You know that you'll make it

    A                   E                A
But they don't know how hard you have to try

         D
Make 'em laugh, let 'em dance

A
You know that you'll make it

    A                   A                A
But they don't know how hard you have to try

     A                   E                A
It's over now and you've more than gotten by
[Outro] | A | A |
