    Personally I am very excited for this months Chorus. The song on the month is Piano Man by Billy Joel. Sign ups are open to anyone and everyone who wants to join, just select the part you want to take and record all lines that correspond with that number. Just as a general reminder, make sure that you record your lines to the instrumental to help make sure that it is time to that and not the original video. The instrumental and lyric videos do not always align perfectly, so keep that in mind. You have until March 11th to claim your lines. The recordings as well as a rendered image to represent yourself must be in by March 18th. Look forward to working on this with everyone!

    [It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
    The regular crowd shuffles in]-1
    [There's an old man sitting next to me
    Making love to his tonic and gin]-2

    [He says, "Son can you play me a memory
    I'm not really sure how it goes]-3
    [But it's sad and it's sweet
    And I knew it complete
    When I wore a younger man's clothes."]-4

    [La la la, di da da
    La la, di da da da dum]-1,2

    [Sing us a song you're the piano man
    Sing us a song tonight]-3,4
    [Well we're all in the mood for a melody
    And you've got us feeling alright]-5,6

    [Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
    He gets me my drinks for free]-5
    [And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
    But there's someplace that he'd rather be]-6

    [He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
    As a smile ran away from his face]-1
    ["Well, I'm sure that I could be a movie star
    If I could get out of this place."]-2

    [La la la, di da da
    La la, di da da da dum]-4,6

    [Now Paul is a real estate novelist
    Who never had time for a wife]-3
    [And he's talking with Davy, who's still in the Navy
    And probably will be for life]-4

    [And the waitress is practicing politics
    As the businessmen slowly get stoned]-5
    [Yes they're sharing a drink they call "Loneliness"
    But it's better than drinking alone]-6

    [Sing us a song you're the piano man
    Sing us a song tonight]-1,3
    [Well we're all in the mood for a melody
    And you've got us feeling alright]-2,5

    [It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
    And the manager gives me a smile]-1
    ['Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see
    To forget about life for a while]-3

    [And the piano it sounds like a carnival
    And the microphone smells like a beer]-5
    [And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
    And say, "Man, what are you doing here?"]-6

    [La la la, di da da
    La la, di da da da dum]-2,4

    [Sing us a song you're the piano man
    Sing us a song tonight
    Well we're all in the mood for a melody
    And you've got us feeling alright]-everyone
