When it's time for closing I play while Rachel cleans

When Rachel shares my pillow she always asks me things 
like do I really think she's pretty do I like the way she sings 
I don't know how to answer so I always smile and say 
I say "Send me picture postcards from L.A."

Chorus

Ab        Bb                      Eb            AbSometimes Rachel stands up in the middle of the bar
           Bb                     Eb and does a scene from the late show 
Ab              Bb           Eb               Abwe all clap our hands as she puts her apron on 
          Bb                  C C/F C/Em C/Fand says "Next week I'm gonna go"

She'll even buy a ticket and pack her things to leave 
though we all know the story we pretend that we believe 
but something always comes up something always makes her stay 
and still no picture postcards from L.A.

Chorus

I'm the piano player down in Eddie's bar 
and Rachel she's the waitress who wants to be a star
