This hotel bar is full of | people, | the piano man is really laying it | down. |
Dm | F | Bb | A7 | Dm | |||
Even the old bartender is a high as a | steeple, | so why to | night should I wear a | frown? |
Dm | F | Dm | F | |||
The joint is jumping all | around me, | and my mood is really not in style. |
Dm | F | Bb | A7 | Dm | |||
Right now the blues want to sur | round me - | but I'll | break out after a | while. |
F | Dm | |
Well, I'm a | million miles away, I'm a | million miles away. |
Bb | A7 | Dm | |
Sailing like a | driftwood - | on a windy bay! |
F | Dm | |
Yes, I'm a | million miles away, I'm a | million miles away. |
Bb | A7 | Dm | |
Sailing like a | driftwood - | on a windy bay! |

Why ask how I feel, | well, how does it look to you? |
Am | Dm | ||
I feel hook line and sinker, I lost my | captain and my crew. |
Gm | C | |||
I'm standing on the landing, | there's no one there but me. |
Am | Dm | C | Dm | ||||
That's where you'll see me, | looking out on the deep blue see. |
Dm | F | Dm | F | |||
There's a song on the lips of every | body, | there's a smile all around the | room. |
Dm | F | Bb | A7 | Dm | ||
There's conversation over | flowing, | so why must I | sit here in the gloom | ? |
Dm | F | Dm | F | |||
This hotel bar has lost it's | people, | the piano man has caught the last bus | home. |
Dm | F | Bb | A7 | Dm | |||
The old bartender is asleep in the corner | , | so why must I | still be here, I don't | know. |
Let me tell you: |
F | Dm | |
I'm a | million miles away, I'm a | million miles away. |

Sailing like a | driftwood - | on a windy bay! |

Yes, I'm a | million miles away, | a million miles away. |
Bb | A7 | Dm | ||
Sailing like a | driftwood - | on a windy bay! |

Well, I'm a | million miles, I'm a million miles, | I'm a million miles - |

Sailing like a | driftwood - | on a windy bay! | Oh, | Oh | Yeah! | ... |
