Verse 3
He was working in a night club
That's where he played the saxo (A minor) phone (G major)
(F major) He used to fake to stock ar (D major) rangements
He left the (D minor) customers alone
(G major)
Verse 4
But one night before the (C major) last song
About a quarter (A minor) after three (G major)
(F major) He saw her standing (G major) at the coat check
And made his move on Christie Lee
(C major)
Verse 5
Christie Lee, Christie Lee
Christie Lee, Christie (A minor) (G major) (F major) Lee
(G major) (C major)
Verse 6
(C major) She was a nice (G major) piece of (C major) music
She had a rhythm (A minor) all her own (G major)
(F major) He blew a solo like (D minor) a blind (D major) man
She really dug his saxophone (G major)
Verse 7
(G major) She wanted more than just an encore (C major)
And he could play in (A minor) every key (G major)
(F major) He left the stage and packed his (G major) alto
And he took it home with Christie (C major) Lee (F major) (C major)
Oh (G major) I heard the man
Verse 8
(F major) knew
"the Bird" like the bible
You (D minor) know the (C major) man could
blow an educated axe
He couldn't see (F major) that Christie
Lee was a woman
Who didn't (D minor) need another (D major) lover
(D minor) All she (G major) wanted was the sax
Verse 9
It took a while for him to notice (C major)
It took a while for (A minor) him to see (G major) (F major)
He was never (G major) in control here
It was always Christie (C major) Lee
Verse 10
Christie Lee, Christie (C major) Lee
Christie Lee, (A minor) Christie Lee (G major)
Interlude 1
(F major) (G major) (C major) (F major)
Verse 11
Oh the (F major) man took a calculated gamble
Yes the (C major) man (A minor) had the power (C major)
to (A minor) per (C major) form
But Christie Lee (F major) was more than
he knew how to handle
She didn't (D minor) need him (D major) as a man
All she (G major) wanted was the horn
Verse 12
They say that Joe became a (C major) wino
They say he always (A minor) drinks alone (G major)
(F major) They say he stumbles like a blind (D minor) man
They say he sold his saxophone
(G major)
Verse 13
Even the band must face the (C major) music
That's what the moral (A minor) is to me (G major)
(F major) The only time you hit the (G major) high note
Is when you play for Christie (C major) Lee
Verse 14
Christie Lee, (C major)
(A minor) (G major) (F major) (G major) Christie Lee (C major) (G major) (C major)
Christie Lee, Christie (A minor) (F major) (G major) Lee
Outro 1
