Nine o'clock and i play guitar in this town
and i'm looking at the people passing by and greeting me
i'm not sad but i've a song in minor key
this is the one
this is the one
that makes me sing
And i sing this refrain
it's e minor i think
gotta learn something
And it's easy to sing in minor key
Everyone is askin' me why i think so
and i answer 'cause it's easy and i wanna let it be
i'm not sad but i've a song in minor key
this is the one
this is the one
that makes me sing.
