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.

DG Got a call from an old friend we'd used to be real close AD Said he couldn't go on the American way G Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast AD [Fill] Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.
[Chorus 1]
DG I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm allright AD I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
[Chorus 2]
G I don't care what you say anymore this is my life ABm Go ahead with your own life leave me alone
[Bridge]
F# I never said you had to offer me a second chance D7E9 I never said I was a victim of circumstance GD I still belong F#Bm Don't get me wrong E9 And you can speak your mind GAGA But not on my time DG They will tell you you can't sleep alone in a strange place AD Then they'll tell you can't sleep with somebody else G Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space AD Either way it's O.K. you wake up with yourself
