C F
I am the entertainer and I know just where I stand

Another Serenader and another long-haired band

Today I am your champion, I may have won your hearts

But I know the game, you'll forget my name
Dm F7+
And I won't be here in another year
G C
If I don't stay on the charts
C F
I am the entertainer and I've had to pay my price
F C/E F G
The things I did not know at first I learned by doin' twice
C F
Ah, but still they come to haunt me, still they want their say
F7+ G
So I've learned to dance with a hand in my pants
Dm F7+
I let 'em rub my neck and I write 'em a check
G C
And they go their merry way
C F
I am the entertainer, been all around the world
F C/E F G
I've played all kinds of palaces and laid all kinds of girls
C F
I can't remember faces, I don't remember names
F7+ G
Ah, but what the hell, You know it's just as well
Dm F7+
'Cause after a while and a thousand miles
G C
It all becomes the same
C F
I am the entertainer, I bring to you my songs
F C/E F G
I'd like to spend a day or two, but I can't stay that long
C F
No, I've got to meet expenses, I got to stay in line
F7+ G
Gotta get those fees to the agencies
Dm F
And I'd love to stay but there's bills to pay
G C
So I just don't have the time
C F
I am the entertainer, I come to do my show
F C/E F G
You've heard my latest record, it's been on the radio
C F
Ah, it took me years to write it, they were the best years of my life
F7+ G
It was a beautiful song, but it ran too long
Dm F
If you're gonna have a hit, you gotta make it fit
G C
So they cut it down to 3:05
C F
I am the entertainer, the idol of my age
F C/E F G
I make all kinds of money when I go on the stage
C F
Ah, you've seen me in the papers, I've been in the magazines
F7+ G
But if I go cold I won't get sold

I'll get put in the back in the discount rack

Like another can of beans
