Em                         C 
You've seen the way I entertain a crowd 

G         Em               C 
I used to pack 'em in from miles around 

G                Em               C 
And I played the happy songs that made them smile 

Am                               D7 
Why'd you wanna go and change my style 

  
             G             C 
Nobody likes sad songs the ones about goodbyes 

G           Em                 C           D7 
Songs about broken hearts with tears in your eyes 

       C     G             C 
Nobody likes sad songs but since you went away 

G             Em         D7        G 
Seems like sad songs are all I can play

The crowd gets restless and they drift away

Lately no one wants to hear me play 

G        Em             C            
I try to do the songs I used to do 

Am                     D7 
Ah but then I think of you

The boss just told me  Ronnie things aren't going well

He's gotta let me go I can tell

He said what happened son you had it made 

Am                           D7 
Why'd you change the way you play
