G             C               D
He'd sing his song most every night 
G               C                D
Wishing she was there behind the light 
G          C                D
The people danced and sang along
       G                  C             D    D7
On the cardboard stage he never sang it wrong

D       G     C         D
And the piper plays the tune
        G       C        D
And the drummer wore his spurs
        G             B7     Em   G       D   D7
But the song that the singer sang was for her

G                C             D
Now the singer's song is never heard
G                       C            D
And the visions he once saw are disappeared 
G              C              D
Now they never dance or sing along
           G                  C             D    D7
But on the cardboard stage he never sang it wrong 

D       G     C         D
And the piper plays the tune
        G       C        D
And the drummer wore his spurs
        G             B7     Em   G       D   D7
But the song that the singer sang was for her
