^D I am the entertainer,i kn ^G ow just where i stand
Another seren ^D ader,another long-haired m ^A an
T ^D oday i am your champion,i m ^G ay have won your hearts
But i know the game,you'll f ^A orget my name
And i w ^G on't be here in an ^A other year
If i don't stay on the ch ^D arts
Verse 2:
^D I am the entertainer,i've h ^G ad to pay my price
The things i did not know at f ^D irst,i learned by doin' tw ^A ice
Ah,b ^D ut still they come to haunt me,st ^G ill they want their say
So i've learned to dance with a h ^A and in my pants
Just r ^G ub my neck and i wr ^A ite'em a check
And they go on their w ^D ay
Verse 3:
^D I am the entertainer,b ^G een all around the world
I've played all kinds of pl ^D aces,i've laid all kind of g ^A irls
I c ^D an't remember faces,i d ^G on't remember names
Ah,but what the hell,it's j ^A ust as well
'Cause ^G after a while and a th ^A ousand miles
It all becomes the s ^D ame
Verse 4:
^D I am the entertainer,i c ^G ome to do my show
You've heard my latest reco ^D rd,it's been on the radi ^A o
Ah,it t ^D ook me years to write it,the b ^G est years of my life
It's a beautiful song,but it r ^A an too long
If you w ^G anna have a hit,you gotta m ^A ake it fit
So they cut it down to 3:0 ^D 5
Verse 5:
^D I am the entertainer,the ^G idol of my age
I make all kinds of mon ^D ey,when i go on the st ^A age
Ah,you've s ^D een me in the papers,i've b ^G een in the magazines
But if i go cold my f ^A uture gets sold
They'll p ^G ut in the back in the d ^A iscount rack
Like another can of b ^D eans
Verse 1.
