Verse 1
(D major) (A major) (C major) (G major) The old (D major) man came to drink
(C sharpsus4) an (D major) d if (B minor) looks was needs he did
(D major) His (E major) grey tweed suit was old and stale
and his (A major) beard was half -grown in
But (G major) two things made him (D major) stand out
and (F sharp major) made me take the time
(G major) A (E major) pair of eyes that stared within
and a (A major) fiddle by (D major) his (A major) side singing
Play, (G major) fiddle, (D major) play, play
that old (F sharp major) sweet song (G major) again
I (E major) don't know the words
and I don't know the name
But the (A major) melody comes back
to haunt me again
Play, (G major) fiddle, (D major) play, play
that old (F sharp major) sweet song again
(G major) No, I (E major) don't know the words
and I don't know the name
It's a (A major) song with a soul and a
stroke of a bow (D major) (A major) (C major) (G major)
The (D major) old man pulled up (F sharp minor) to the bar
And he (B minor) glanced to left and (D major) right
Then (E major) gently he laid the fiddle up
So (A major) it was in plain sight
And (D major) Fat Jack asked him, (F sharp minor) what's your bill?
And (B minor) he waited for reply (D major)
(A major) The (E major) old man motioned with his bow
For (A major) Jack to come nearby
Now (G major) I ain't one to (D major) listen in
To (F sharp major) what a man's to (G major) say
But I (E major) could not help but overhear
Jack (A major) ask that man to play
So said (G major) and done the fiddle
(D major) Taken off and (F sharp major) tucked beneath his (G major) chin
The (E major) next thing you knew
Fiddle and bow brought quiet
(A major) Deep within singing
Play, (G major) fiddle, (D major) play
Play that old (F sharp major) sweet song again
(G major) No, I (E major) don't know the words
and I don't know the name
But the (A major) melody comes back
to haunt me again
Play, (G major) little, (D major) play
Play that old (F sharp major) sweet song again
(G major) No, I (E major) don't know the words
and I don't know the name
It's a (A major) song with a soul
and there's love up above (D major) (A major) (C major) (G major)
The (D major) old man's hands are (A major) old now
(F sharp minor) He can't (B minor) even hold the bow (D major)
And the (E major) songs he played
have had their days in (A major) few
Or even know them
But the (G major) melodies he (D major) played for me
Would (F sharp major) live beyond, I'm (G major) sure
The (E major) names are not important
And the (A major) music meant much more
Just singin'
(G major) Play, play, oh, (D major) play
Play that old (F sharp major) sweet song again
(G major) No, I (E major) don't know the words
And I don't know the name
It's a (A major) song with a soul and a
stroke of the bull
Play, (G major) fiddle, (D major) play, play
that (F sharp major) old sweet song again
(G major) No, I (E major) don't know the words
and I don't know the name
But the (A major) melody comes back
to haunt me again
Play, (G major) fiddle, (D major) play, play
that old (F sharp major) sweet song again
No, I don't know the words
and I don't know the name
It's a song with a soul
and a stroke of the
Thank
