[VERSE 1]
[G] As a [D]boy I had a [Am]gig with a [C]travelin' show
[G] Way [D]back in '6[Am]3 [C]
[G] We [D]did a little [Am]pickin' for the [C]soldier boys
[G] Of [D]General Bobby [Am]Lee[C] [C#]

[BRIDGE 1]
[D] But [Bb]when we got to[C] Pennsyl[G]vania,
[D] I [Bb]knew there'd be a[C] change
[D] We [Bb]caught up with some[C] boys from [G]Georgia
[D] And I [Bb]heard one of [C]them say

[CHORUS]
[G] [D]Don't tell the [Am]band [C]
[G] The [D]devil's on his [Am]way [C]
[G] [D]Don't tell the [Am]band [C]
[G] [D] [Am]
Just [C]let the [C]mus[D]ic [G]play [D] [Am] [C]

[VERSE 2]
Later on I had a job pouring gin and rum
On the grand queen of the sea
We set out on our first transatlantic voyage
Headed for New York City

[BRIDGE 2]
But when I felt that lady shudder
I knew there'd be a change
I saw the captain grab the first mate
And I thought I heard him say

[CHORUS]
Just let the music play

Solo over bridge and chorus once each

[VERSE 3]
In the Restaurant at the End of the Universe
In the year 3010
I was listenin' to the Good Old Interstellar Boys
Playin' "Let It Be" again

[BRIDGE 3]
But when I heard the trumpet sounding
I knew there'd be a change
A prophet wearin' robes appeared before us
And he looked at me and said

[CHORUS X2]
Just let the music play
Just let the music play

End on Em
