Key: D

Difficulty: Novice

Verse:
     D     A
Oh, you silly old man
   D     A
You silly old man
     D    A
You're making a fool of yourself
  G    A   D
So get off the stage

Verse:
  D     A
You silly old man
     D     A
In your misguided trousers
      D        A
With your mascara and your Fender guitar
     G    A    D
And you think you can arouse us?

Chorus:
     A
But the song that you just sang
      Bm       G
It sounds exactly like the last one
     D
And the next one
          G
I bet you it will sound
    A
Like this one

Verse:
 D       A
Downstage, and offstage
     D      A
Don't you feel all run in?
      D           A
And do you wonder when they will take it away?
   G    A   D
This is your final fling

Verse:
       D      A
But then applause ran high
       D           A
But for the patience of the ones behind you
   D           A
As a verse drags on like a month drags on
      G      A     D
It's very short, but it seems very long

Chorus:
     A
And the song that you just sang
      Bm       G
It sounds exactly like the last one
     D
And the next one
          G
I bet you it will sound
    A
Like this one

Verse:
   D       A
So, get off the stage
   D      A
Oh, get off the stage
   D        A
And when we get down off of the stage
    G      A      D
Please stay off the stage - ALL DAY!

Verse:
   D       A
So, get off the stage
   D      A
Oh, get off the stage
   D         A
And when we've had our money back
     G     A     D
Then I'd like your back in plaster

Chorus:
     A
Oh, I know that you say
   Bm     G
How age has no meaning
     D           G
Oh, but here is your audience now
        A
And they're screaming:

Verse:
 D       A
Get off the stage
   D      A
Oh, get off the stage
       D     A
Because I've given you enough of my time
     G      A     D
And the money that wasn't even mine (Have you seen yourself recently?)

Outro:
   D       A
Oh, get off the stage
   D       A
Oh, get off the stage
D A
G A D

D A D A
D A

   G    A  D
For whom the bell tolls
