Chords
And The Band Plays On

Key: F

Introduction:

 C#m                                                 A 
She hums a song she can't remember
         C#m                                                     Ab7 
The music lives but the words are dead
         C#m                                         A 
The song went out in late November
           C#m                                                         A     B   A   B 
It's been 4 days since she's been to bed
 C#m                                                                     A 
She's got a tattoo on the back of her neck
 C#m                                             A 
Wears china red lipstick #3
 C#m                                                         A 
Stands by the jukebox smoking a cigarette
 C#m                                                               A         B     A   B 
Watches the band as she drinks for free
 A                                             E                       B 
But don't you know everybody's got a story
                                                             A 
Might be a little better than yours
                             E                                         B 
Have you ever bled for the price of glory
                                                                     A 
Then what the hell are you livin' for
                               E                         B 
You sit and to listen to the music
                                                 A 
But you don't hear that song
                   E                                       B 
This old world spins a little faster
                                       C#m 
And the band plays on
Everybody stops to watch her move
