Sweet music man    (Listen to sample)

 

      D

1.    Sing a song, sweet music man,

                                              D7

cause I won`t be there to hold your hand

              G                      D

    like I used to , I`m through with you.

                     A

    You`re a heck of a singer, and a powerful man,

                                                       A7

    but you surround yourself with people who demand

          D

    so little of you.

 

             D

2.    You touched my soul with your beautiful song,

                                  D7

you even had me singin` along

              G                                D

right with you. You said, “I need you!”

                        A

    Then you changed the words and added harmony,

                                                           A7

    then you sang the song you had written for me,

         D

   to someone new.

 

                G                     A                              D

Oh, and nobody sings a love song quite like you do,

               G                         A                    D

oh, and nobody else can make me sing along.

  G                         A

Nobody else can make me see

   D                                 Bm                 Eb

things are right when I know they`re wrong,

  D                      A                             D

nobody sings a love song quite like you.

 

      D

3.    Sing your song, sweet music man,

                                             D7

travel the world with your six-piece band

             G                                 D

    that does for you what you tell them too.

 

 

                   A

    And you try to stay on with this song you`ve sung,

                                         A7                              D

   to so many people who all demand to come back on you.

 

      D

4.    Sing your song, sad music man,

                                        D7

makin` you live in the one-night stands

               G                                      D

    that proove for you, they don`t mean to.

                           A

    You`re still a heck of a singer but a broken man,

                                           A7                       D

    you keep on looking for one last band to sing to.

 

                 G                     A                                   D

Oh, and nobody sings a love song quite like you do,

               G                         A                     D

oh, and nobody else can make me sing along.

  G                          A

Nobody else can make me see

   D                                            Bm                 Eb

things are right when they`re wrong with this song,

  D                      A                             D

nobody sings a love song quite like you.

                                                                  A           D

    Sing your song, sweet music man, I believe in you.
