Yess I was looking for the accompaniment version. I always get piano parts that have the melody there so they sound boring when you sing and play. You are a lifesaver

This is so gold. Thank you so much for providing tutorials for the back track. The accuracy is IMPECCABLE.

It's nine o'clock on a saturday
Regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sittin' next to me
Makin' love to his tonic and gin
He says: "Son can you play me a memory?"
I'm not really sure how it goes
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
When I wore a younger man's clothes
La-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Sing us a song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
He gets me my drinks for free
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
He says Bill I believe this is killing me
As a smile ran away from his face
Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place
Oh, la-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the navy
And probably will be for life
And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinkin' alone
Sing us the song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright
It's a pretty good crowd for a saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
To forget about life for a while
And the piano it sounds like a carnival
And the microphone smells like a beer
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
And say man what are you doin' here?
Oh, la-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da da-da
Sing us the song you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feelin' alright

Thanks for the great response on last week's #TBT-song Africa! Out of your requests, I selected Piano Man by Billy Joel for this week's song. I hope you like it! Now I need your help to find a great old song for next Thursday. Write your suggestions in the comments! #tbt

This song is easier than it sounds, but harder than it looks

[rainydaze]

You are a blessing for posting tabs without the lyrical melodies thank you

IVE BEEN WANTING THIS FOR SO LONG IM GONNA CRY

[kyle-iucp]

i love these ones where they teach the accompanying part, like your bohemian rhapsody one

[laserchargedgames]

Without the harmonica, the song just felt weird cause I was so used to it. Good job on the song.

[IsaacWale]

I heard this song for the first time earlier... and it made me wanna learn it on my keyboard.
I struggle with time to play keyboard, and also struggle with using two hands... however, this song is one that I know I can learn! If only I had heard it before...

This is a reference for myself, trying to learn the solo wish me luck guys: 3:27

Al fin encontré el puro acompañamiento para tocar con la armonica
