[intro]
Bb7  Bm7  Bbm7  F/A  Abm7  Gm7  C/E

[verse 1]
F
Late at night
Eaug
     When it's dark and cold
Cm
  I reach out
D7  C/E        D/F#    D
        For someone to hold
Gm
   When I'm blue
D/F#
   When I'm lonely
Gm
   She comes through
E7           E7             Am7
   She's the only one who can
D7            Gm7
   My baby grand
C7     Aaug   D7  Gm7  C7
  is all I need

[verse 2]
F
In my time
Eaug
     I've wandered everywhere
Cm
       Around this world
D7  C/E         D/F#    D   Gm
        She would always be there
Any day
D/F#
   Any hour
Gm
   All it takes
E7        E7       Am7
   Is the power in my hands
D7       Gm7
   This baby grand's
C7          F   D7  Gm7  C7
  Been good to me

[verse 3]
F
I've had friends
Eaug
    But they've slipped away
Cm
    I've had fame
D7  C/E        D/F#     D
        But it doesn't stay
Gm
    I've made fortunes
D/F#
    Spent them fast enough
Gm
    But as for women
E7             E7          Am7
    They don't last with just one man
D7           Gm7
   But baby grand
C7           F      Bbm7 F Em7
  Will stand by me

[bridge]
A7    Dm
 they say, no one's gonna play this
Em7            A7
   on the radio
Dm
   They said that melancholy blues were
           Gm7  F7
dead and gone
Bb
   But only songs like these,
Bm7           E7
   played in minor keys
Am7           Ab7            Gm7   C7
   Keep those memories holding on

[verse 4]
F
I've come far
Eaug
   From the life I've strayed in
Cm
   And I've got the scars
D7  C/E             D/F#    D
    From those dives I've played in
Gm
   Now I'm home
D/F#
   And I'm weary
Gm
   And in my bones
E7        E7         Am7
  Every dreary one night stand
D7      Gm7
  And my baby grand
C7            A7        D7
  Is coming home with me

[outro]
        C/E     D/F#  Gm7
Ever since this gig began
           C7
My baby grand's
Been good to
   Bm7  Bb7  F/A  Ab7  Gm7  Gb  F
me
