Broken Piano

| E              | E              | 
A              | A              |
| C**   C#dim7** | G/D**    E**

  I ...

[Verse 1]
  G                   G           
I don't know just how old I was 
  A                A
but when I was quite small
  D              D       C7**   
I found an old piano who no one 
D**       G
played at all.
  E                     E         
I climbed the stool and tried the 
         Am             Am
keys and soon I found a song
     C*    C#dim7*    G/D*     
and, oh, I knew right then and 
E*     Am**         D** G
there, here's where I belong.

[Chorus 1]
   E             E                
As long as I can keep on playing 
   A            A
I'm happy as can be,
C**       C#dim7** G/D**   E** 
everybody said the piano's 
          A**      D**      G
broken but it seems to play for me.

[Interlude]
| C**      D**   | G              |

 G              |

[Verse 2]
     G               G           
This old piano's got 88 keys and 
A                 A
six of them don't play,
     D               D             
it's out of tune but honky-tonk is 
C7**   D**      G
better off that way.

Hey, the color is a dusty rose and
     Am                   Am
 the whole front board is gone.
    C*      C#dim7*       G/D*    
So, you can watch all the hammers 
E*           Am**  D**    G
dance as the music moves along.

[Chorus 2]
   E             E                
As long as I can keep on playing 
   Am           Am
I'm happy as can be,
C**       C#dim7** G/D**   E** 
everybody said the piano's 
          A**      D**      G
broken but it seems to play for me,
         C**        D**       G* 
yeah, it plays like crazy for me.
   G*      B7*    B7*


[Interlude]

A              | A              |
| C7             | D*             | 

D*             |

[Verse 3]
   G                 G            
My granddad listened to me play 
  A           A
and he began to smile,
   D               D              
he played a fiddle too for me, we 
C7**        D**   G
both played for a while.
    E             E            
And when I had to leave he said: 
        Am                Am
"come back whenever you can"
    C*   C#dim7*    G/D* E*     
and ever since most everyday 
    Am**    D**    G
you'll find me there again.

[Instrumental]
| C              | C              | 
                            Right,  
G              | G              |
                         fiddle,
| C              | C              | 
                                    
D              | D              |
                         me.
| C              | C              | 
G              | G              |
      C                 C
Yeah, jukebox, ragtime, honky-tonk, 
swing,
   D                     D
we have a good time with everything.

[Chorus 3]
   E             E                
As long as I can keep on playing 
   A            A
I'm happy as can be,
     C*  C#dim7*  G/D*    E*        
    A**       D**     G*      N.C.
everyone said the piano's broken but
 it plays for him and me.

The worn-out tag inside the back 
       Am Am
says 1923.
C*        C#dim7*    G/D*   E* 
Everybody said the piano is 
           Am
broken but it plays like crazy,
Am                         Am**  
plays like crazy, yeah, it plays
