Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu "Keeping the Faith" dari Billy Joel.
[D]
If it seems like I've been lost in let's remember
[D]
If you think I'm feeling older and missing my younger days
[G]
Oh, then you should have known me much better
[G]
Cause my past is something that never
[D]
Got in my way oh no
[D]
Still I would not be here now if I never had the hunger
[D]
And I'm not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
[G]
Cause I never felt the desire 'til their music set me on fire
[Chorus]
[A6] [G]
And then I was saved, yeah
[A6]
that's why I'm keeping the faith
[G]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[D]
Keeping the faith
[Verse]
We wore matador boots
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos
I put on my shark skin jacket
You know the kind with the velvet collar
And ditty-bop shades
I took a fresh pack of Luckies
And a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans
And his Old Spice after shave
Combed my hair in a pompadour
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
[Chorus]
A permanent wave yeah
We were keeping the faith
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keeping the faith
[Bridge]
[A] [G] [D]
You can get just so much from a good thing
[A] [G] [D]
You can linger too long in your dreams
[A] [G] [D]
Say goodbye to the oldies but goodies
[Em7]
Cause the good old days weren't always good
[A7]
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems
[Verse]
