One Man Band- Leo Sayer
This is a fairly easy song as the chords are the same all the way through
There are a number of strum patterns that will work, my personal favourite is 2 down 1
but hey feel free to jazz it up
Verse 1
G Am C
Well everybody knows down lipregro, You hav�ta leap to cross the street
D C G
You could lose your life under a taxi cab, you gotta have eyes in your feet
G Am
C
You find a nice soft corner and ya sit right down, pick up your guitar & play
D C G
Then the law man comes, says; move along and so ya move along all day
Chorus
G Am C
Well I�m a one man band and nobody knows or understands
D C G
Is there anybody out there who wanna lend me a hand with my one man band
Verse 2
For three days now I haven�t eaten at all, my, my you must be getting so thin
Soon my cap won�t be large enough to put a half a crown in
So hey now mister don�t you look so sad, don�t look so ill at ease
Cause I can play ya any song you like to cheer up that like you lead
Chorus
C D Am
And oh, oh, oh, look at the rain falling
C D Am (pause) G
And oh, oh, oh look at the rain�.. oh look at it rain
Verse 3
Nobody sees the minstrel boy as he sings his tail of whoa
Nobody sees him coming... and nobody sees him go
So hey now mister don�t you look so sad, don�t look so ill at ease
Cause I can play ya any song you like to cheer up that like you lead
Chorus x 2 and fade
