Billy Joel - Where's the Orchestra: chords

            C
Where's the orchestra?
Cm             Cm7      Cm6  G/B
Wasn't this supposed to be a musical?
A#6     G+/B      C
Here I am in the balcony
Cmaj7              G+/B              Gm7     A#/C
How the hell could I have missed the overture?
  Fmaj7      D7
I like the scenery

Dm7                Fm         G+
Even though I have absolutely no

Idea at all
What is being said
Despite the dialogue
There's the leading man
The movie star who never faced an audience
Where's the orchestra?

Dm7
After all
        G#    A# D#           D#/D
This is my big  night on the town
   Cm7                  Gm
My introduction to the theatre crowd
    G#                               Dm7-5
I assumed that the show would have a song
          G+
So I was wrong

At least I understand
All the innuendo and the irony
And I appreciate
The roles the actors played
The point the author made

And after the closing lines
And after the curtain calls
The curtain falls
On empty chairs
Where's the orchestra?
