Who draws the crowd?
Who plays sold out?
Baby, it's the guitar man
Who's gonna steal the show, you know
Baby, it's the guitar man

He can make you love
He can make you cry
He will bring you down
He will get you high
Something keeps him going
Miles and miles away
To find another place to play

And night after night
Who treats you right?
Baby, it's the guitar man
Who's on the radio, you know?
Baby, it's the guitar man

When he comes to town
And you see his face
And you think you might
Like to take his place
Something keeps him drifting
Miles and miles away
Searching for the songs to play

Then you listen to the music
And you'd like to sing along
And you want to get the meaning
Out of each and every song
And you find yourself a message
And some words to call your own
And take'em home

He can make you love
He can get you high
He will bring you down
He will make you cry
Something keeps him moving
But no one seems to know
What it is that makes him go

Then the lights begin to flicker
And the sound is getting dim
The voice begins to falter
And the crowds are getting thin
But he never seems to notice
He's just got to find another place to play
Fade away
Got to play
Fade away
