Listen They're Playing My Song

Jerry Lee Lewis


Tom: C

C                 F         C                         G7
Down the street a baby just cried when he woke up all alone
  C                            F        C
A train's leaving town oh that lonesome sound 
               G7           C
Is chilling me right to the bone
  F                                                          G7
A song is playing I can barely hear about a love that's gone wrong
    C             F            C                   G7         C
The freezing rain on my window pane listen they're playing my song

                       F          C                             G7
Taps being played by a sold-ier's grave so sad it torments your soul
C                       F          C                 G7       C    C7
Listen to that old cold north wind blow tonight it's dark and cold
F
Somewhere a siren cuts through the night 
                                      G7
It sounds like the whole world's gone wrong
C                      F             C                    G7         C
Thunder just warned oh it's coming a storm listen they're playing my song
               G7         C
Listen they're playing my song
