Lyrics

THE OASIS BAR J2004 [Key of G#]
(Words and Music by Lacy Jo Davis)

The Oasis Bar
Sits on the edge of town next to a shop called The Coral Reefer
That’s painted like a pet store
But I suspect sells a whole lot more

And he goes there every night
To sit on the blue-lit stage, ‘midst the smoke and the sadness
To play his old guitar
Every night at the Oasis Bar

And he sings about his heartaches
And he sings about love that’s gone wrong
And his fingers walk the blues
But his eyes watch the woman who sits alone

(Chorus)
Hey Guitar Man
Why are you watchin’ me?
Can you see
That I’m sadder than the songs that you sing?
Hey Guitar Man
When you’re watchin’ me
What do you see?
Will you play one more song for me?

And when his playin’s done
He always sits down at the bar next to her for his last drink
And he’ll say hello
But I think he’d like to say a whole lot more

(Chorus)
Are you playin’ all of those songs just for me?

The Oasis Bar
Sits down on the edge of town
He plays his old guitar
Every night at the Oasis Bar
