Billy Joel - Christie lee

^N.C.Let me tell you a s^Ctory About a woman and a m^Aman ^{G F} Maybe you will find fam^D7iliar Maybe you won't unders^G7tand The man's name I don't rem^Cember He was always Joe to ^Amme ^{G F} But I can't forget the ^Gwoman She was always Christie L^Cee

^N.C.He was working in a ^Cnight club That's where he played the saxop^Amhone^{G F} He used to fake the stock arr^D7angements He left the customers al^G7one But one night before the l^Cast song About a quarter after t^Amhree^{G F} He saw her standing at the c^Goat check ^N.C.And made his move on Christie L^Cee

Christie Lee, Christie L^Cee Christie Lee, Christie L^Amee ^{G F} Ooo^G Ooo^C

^N.C.She was a nice piece of ^Cmusic She had a rhythm all her ^Amown ^{G F} He blew a solo like a b^D7lind man She really dug his saxop^G7hone She wanted more than just an ^Cencore And he could play in every ^Amkey ^{G F} He left the stage and packed his ^Galto ^N.C.And took it home with Christie ^CLee

Oh I heard the m^Fan knew 'the bird' like the bible You know the ^Cman could blow an educated axe He couldn't ^Fsee that Christie Lee was a woman Who didn't n^D7eed another lover All she w^Ganted was the sax ^C/G

^N.C.It took a while for him to ^G7notice It took a while for him to s^Amee ^{G F} He was never in con^Gtrol here ^N.C.It was always Christie ^CLee

Christie Lee, Christie ^AmLee ^{G F} Ooo^G Ooo^C

Oh the ^Fman took a calculated gamble Yes the ^Cman had the power to perform But Christie L^Fee was more than he knew how to handle She didn't n^D7eed him as a man All she w^Ganted was the horn ^{C/G G7}

^N.C.They say that Joe became a ^Cwino They say he always drinks al^Amone^{G F} They say he stumbles like a b^D7lind man They say he sold his saxop^Ghone Even the band must face the m^Cusic That's what the moral is to ^Amme ^{G F} The only time you hit the ^Ghigh notes ^N.C.Is when you play for Christie ^CLee
