VERSE 1
********
      Em
I was in a barroom just the other night
D
Tuning my old guitar
     Em
When two young girls stood in front of me
    C                   D
And one said, "Hey Grandpa
    C
You gotta plug in, you gotta synthesize
    D
You gotta get outta those jeans
Em
We came here for music tonight
         C                  D
And they hire us an old has-been
                      Em     D  Em  D
And we want a dance machine!"

VERSE 2
********
      Em
I was far too tired to be angry
      D
I was too damn broke to be mad
         Em
I said, "Give me a try tonight ladies
  C                D
I might not be too bad
         C
You see, every song has a story
       D
If you listen you might just learn
     Em
That life's for the living by everyone
    C                    D
And youth is a flame you burn
                            Em
What you borrow, you must return”

CHORUS
*******
      G                   C
And I sang the songs that Harry wrote
Continúa después del anuncio
  G                C
I sang with all my soul
    G           C
For Annie from America
        D
And the singing made me whole
       G                   C
Yes, I sang for the Mister Tanners
        G               C
For the waitresses with dreams
        G                 C
For the lost ones and the lonely
        D
And for all that music means
                          Em     D  Em  D
There were songs before machines

VERSE 3
********
    Em
And when the night was over
        D
And the room began to clear
        Em
And the glasses clinked, and the spotlight blinked
      C                   D
And I reached for another beer
  C
I looked around for the young girls
         D
But they must have left too soon
      Em
And I thought that trying to reach those kids
        C                   D
Is like trying to reach the moon
                Em     D
Flying a silver spoon

E|E|---------------||--------- 

VERSE 4
********
      Em
And I thought those days are over
        D
And the songs must all be dead
   Em                                            D
Am I the last one singing all the memories in my head?
    C
I'd given them my best shots
        D
And I'd hoped that they could see
     Em
That what the songs were saying is
    D
You grow up fast and free
                         Em
But you can't fight destiny

VERSE 5
********
    Em
The clock was chiming midnight
       D
When I walked out to my car
    Em
And standing there were the two young girls
     C              D
So I put down my guitar
        C
And the one reached up to kiss my cheek
        D
And the other one held my hand
         Em
And they said, "We thought you ought to know
     C                D
It's like a new found land
                Em     D  Em  D
And now we understand"

CHORUS
*******
        G                   C
Why you sing the songs that Harry wrote
    G                  C
You sing with all your soul
    G           C
For Annie from America
        D
And the singing makes you whole
         G                   C
Yes, you sing for the Mister Tanners
        G               C

        G                 C
For the lost ones and the lonely
        D
And for all that music means

There were songs before machines
