Billy Joel - Just The Way You Are

Intro is in D
-----------------------
Verse 1: 

D--------E7/9-----Gmaj7-------D----------D7/9
Don't go changing, to try and please me 

Gmaj7-----Gm7-----------Fm7-Am7-D7/9 
You never let me down before 

Gmaj7--Gm7---Fm7------------Bm7 
Don't imagine&. you're too familiar 

E7/9-------------------A11 
And I don't see you anymore 

D-----------E7/9-----Gmaj7--------D------D7/9 
I would not leave you in times of trouble 

Gmaj7----Gm7------------------Fm7-Am7-D7/9 
We never could have come this far 

Gmaj7------Gm7--------Fm7------------Bm7 
I took the good times, I'll take the bad times 

Em7----------------------------D 
I'll take you just the way you are 
----------------------------------------
Verse 2: 

Don't go trying some new fashion 
Don't change the color of your hair 
You always have my unspoken passion 
Although I might not seem to care 

I don't want clever conversation 
I never want to work that hard 
I just want someone that I can talk to 
I want you just the way you are. 
----------------------------------------
Chorus: 

Gmaj7-----A------------------Fm7----Bm7 
I need to know that you will always be 

Em7-------------------------D-----D7/9 
The same old someone that I knew 

Bb-----------C----------------Am7------D 
What will it take 'till you believe in me 

Gm7-----------------------A11 
The way that I believe in you. 
-------------------------------------
Verse 3: 

I said I love you, and that's forever 
And this I promise from the heart 
I couldnt love you any better 
Em7-------------------------D 
I love you just the way you are. 

(Saxophone solo) 

(back to second half of verse 2, 
I dont want clever conversation&
then fade w/ sax solo)
