I Can Play You Anything

  • (Ian M. Bruce)

    I can play you anything
    Anything that you want to hear
    I can play you anything
    But you must let me practise
    But you must let me practise
    But you must let me practise for a year

    Now when I write another song
    There's great concentration at the start
    After only a week or so
    I nearly know the title off by heart - I'm smart
    I nearly know the title off by heart

    Given just a little more
    A little more time to rehearse
    After only two more months
    I nearly know the whole first verse - I do
    I nearly know the whole first verse

    Two more months to find the chords
    I'm very quick, you see
    I never ever use clever chords
    I just use C, G - and D
    And with these three ...

    Now here there should be a final verse
    Then the story all would be told
    But I can't sing that tonight
    Because the song is just eleven months old

    Final chorus:
    I can play you anything
    Anything that you want to hear
    If you want to hear that final verse
    You'll have to ask me back
    You'll have to ask me back
    You'll have to ask me back next year

    (as sung by Iain MacKintosh)
