Who draws the crowd and plays so loud, Baby it's the 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, then he'll get you high keeps him goin', miles and miles a day To find another place to play.
Night after night who treats right, Baby it's the guitar man Who's on the radio, you go listen To the guitar man
Then he comes to town, and you see face, And you think you might like to take his place Somethin' keeps him driftin' miles and miles away Searchin' the songs to play.
Then listen to the music and you like to sing along, You want to get the meaning out of each and ev'ry song Then you find yourself a message and some words to call your own And take them home.
He make you love, he can get you high He will bring you down, then he'll make you cry Somethin' him movin', but no one seems to know What it is that makes 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 got to find Another place to play, Fade Away. Got to Play. Fade Away. Got to Play.
