The Singer by Liza Minnelli
The Singer
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
D
[Verse]
E A7
In a small cafe on a crowded night
D
In a spot of light stands the singer
E A7
Then the band begins
A7
And the beat is strong
D
And the room belongs to the singer
[Chorus]
F#m F#m/F
All the people turn to hear her sad refrain
F#m7 B7
And catch the cry of pain that's in her song
Em
But in her haunted face
Em/D#
And in her searching eyes
Em7 A7
There is a sign that something's wrong
[Verse]
A7
Now the eager crowd hangs on every word
D
But the sounds are slurred by the singer
A7
Til' the people feel every aching part
D
Of the broken heart of the singer
[Chorus]
F#m F#m/F
Still the song goes on about a love she knew
F#m B7
That seemed so sure, so true but turned out wrong
Em
And from the tears
Em/D#
She shows nobody really knows
Em7 A7
Is she the singer or the song
Fm7 A#
Is she the singer or the song
[Instrumental]
Fm7 D#
[Chorus]
Gm Gm/F#
As the sad song ends she hits the final note
Gm7 C
It catches in her throat but comes out strong
Fm
And as she bows and goes
Fm/E
Nobody really knows
Fm7 A#
Was she the singer or the song
G# D# A# D#
Was she the singer, or the song
[Outro]
Fm7
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-lah-la-lah
D#
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-la-la
Fm7
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-lah-la-lah
D#
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-la-la
Fm7
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-lah-la-lah
D#
La-la-lah-la-lah, La-la-la-la
