One Man Band

Leo Sayer

CWell everybody knows down Amladbrook grove

 You have to Dmleap across the Fstreet

 You can Glose your life under a Emtaxi cab

 You gotta Fhave eyes in your Cfeet

CYou find a nice soft corner and you Amsit right down

 Take Dmup your guitar and Fplay

 But then the Glaw man comes says move alEmong

 So you Fmove along all Cday

(Personally I would put the last part of the second verse here too, it's very effective)

 WCell Im a one man baCnd

AmNobody knows nor Dmunderstands

 Is there Ganybody out there wanna Flend me a hand

 With my one man Cband

(same first verse chords)

For three days now I havent eaten at all

My my you must be getting so thin

And soon my cap wont be large enough

To drop a half a crown in

So hey there mister dont you look so sad

Dont look so ill at ease

Well I can play you any song you like

To cheer up that life you lead

Well Im a one man band

Nobody knows nor understands

Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand

With my one man band

 And Foh Foh Dmoh look at the Frain falling

FOh Foh Dmoh look at it Grain

 Oh look at it Crain

Well nobody sees the minstrel boy as he sings his tale of woe

Nobody sees him coming

Nobody see him go

So hey there mister dont you look so sad

Dont look so ill at ease

Well I can play you any song you like

To cheer up that life you lead

Well Im a one man band

Nobody knows nor understands

Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand

With my one man band

Well Im a one man band

Nobody knows nor understands

Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand

With my one man band

Oh Im a one man band

Just a one man band

Oh Im a one man band

It can also easily be played in G, but this is Leo's key.

If you choose G the drop at the Rain bit is a simple run down to Am.

But C has more feeling and character.
