Neil Young - The Old Country Waltz

Gotta change the vocal mic on the piano

I'm playing that old country waltz
In this empty hall, bouncin' off the wall
Ain't got no excuses, I just want to play
That good old country waltz

Well, I loved, and I lost, and I cried
The day that the two of us died
Ain't got no excuses, I just want to ride
While the band plays the old country waltz

Out the window, the moonlight shines on the roofs of the cars
While the bar serves tequila and salt, oh
And the band plays the old country waltz

This old music has kept me on top
When you're down, it's a hard thing to stop
I don't need no excuses, I just want to play
That good old country waltz

And I'm playing it, that old country waltz
In this empty hall, echoin' off the wall
Ain't got no excuses, I just want to play
That good old country waltz

Ain't got no excuses, I just need to play
That good old country waltz
