William Martin Joel, conhecido como Billy Joel (Hicksville, 9 de maio de 1949), é um cantor e pianista norte-americano.
Conhecido como The Piano Man, Billy Joel manteve um grande sucesso por duas décadas, mesmo se recusando a seguir as exigências de sua gravadora, que queria somente material comercial. O primeiro êxito do cantor foi "Captain Jack", que rendeu um contrato longo com a Columbia Records.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

OYSTER BAY BILLY JOEL
INTRO: Em
VERSE: EmA From my room, I see the blue Pacific Ocean FGGBm Yes, my hotel has me right beside the shore
EmG Well, today it's San Francisco A And tomorrow it's L.A. FGG And I feel as though I've been this way before
VERSE: EmA Well my woman helps my feet to keep on walkin' FGG But my manager he stands right outside the door
BmEm Yes, there's an up 'n' comin' superstar A And he's gettin' rave revues FCC But there ain't no time for fishin' anymore
CHORUS: CEm I never thought that things would go this far CEm I never thought that life would be this way CEm I never thought I'd be a superstar
Dm And Jesus Christ Em I wish that I F Was back in Oyster Bay FBbFCFCFB Takin' it easy... Oh yeah...
VERSE: BEmA But there's lots of friendly folks that say "good morning" FGGBm But somehow you know I just don't believe their smiles
Em I'd be New York City bound A Where I could be among my friends FGG But the road back home it seems a million miles
VERSE: EmA I can see the lights of Hollywood below me FGG But somehow they just don't move me like they should BmEm I know it's hard to understand A But I would be a fisherman F If I only had the chance, CC You know I would
CHORUS: CEm I never thought that things would go this far CEm I never thought that I'd be here today CEm I never thought I'd be a superstar
Dm Oh, and Jesus Christ Em I wish that I F Was back in Oyster Bay FBbFCFCFGmF Takin' it easy... Oh yeah...
