The Entertainer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
I'm the [G]entertainer
and I [C]know just where I stand
Another seren[G]ader
and another [C]long -haired [D]man
Today [G]I am your champion,
I [C]may have won your heart
But I know the game, you for[D]get my name
And [Am]I won't be here in [C]an other year
if I [D]don't stay on the [G]charts
I'm the entertainer,
and [C]I had to pay my price
The things I didn't [G]know at first,
I learned by [C]doing [D]twice
But [G]still they come to haunt me,
[C]still they want their say
So I learned to dance
with a [D]hand in my pants
Then [Am]rub my neck and
[C]write on my check
And they [D]go their merry [G]way
I am the entertainer
Been [C]all around the world
I've played all kinds of [G]palaces
And laid all [C]kinds of [D]girls
I [G]can't remember faces
[C]Don't remember names
Oh, but what the hell?
Who knows [D]justice well?
Cause [Am]af ter a while and a t[C]housand miles
[D]It all becomes the [G]same
[D]I a[G]m the annotator
And I [C]bring to you my soul
I like to spend a [G]day or two
I can't [C]stay that [D]long
No, [G]I got to meet expenses
I [C]got to stay in line
Gotta get those fees to the [D]agencies
And I'd [Am]love to stay,
but there's [C]bills to pay
So I [D]just don't have the [G]time
I'm the entertainer,
and I [C]come to [D]do my [C]show
You heard my latest re[G]cord,
it's been on the [C]radio
[D]Oh, it took me years to wri[G]te it,
[D]they were the [C]best years of my life
It was a beautiful song, but it [D]ran too long
If [Am]you're gonna have a hit,
you [C]gotta make it big
So they [D]count it down to three or [G]five
I am the entertainer
The [C]idol of my age
I make all kinds of [G]money
When I go [C]on the [D]stage
Oh, [G]you've seen me in the papers
I've [C]been in the magazines
But if I go cold I [D]won't get cold
I get [Am]put in the back in the [C]discount rack
Like [D]an other kind of [G]bitch
I'm the entertainer
And I [C]know just where I stand
Not a seren[G]ader
And I'm not a [C]lonely man
[D]Today I a[G]m your champion
I [C]may have won your heart
But I know the game
You for[D]get my name
And I [Am]won't be here in an[C]other year
If I [D]don't stay on the [G]DROWNING!
