Tunesmith
Fmaj7Married to the road, there's no other way to Bb/Csay it
C/EBaby found out quite Bb/Dearly in the Fmaj7game
That I belong to my songs, so she chose not to Bb/Cplay it
Now I C/Ewalk down the street and I Bb/Dhear them call my C/Dname
Chorus:
Gmaj7Tunesmith, Ctunesmith, Gmaj7sing me a Csong
BmGive me your Emlaughter, C/Dgive me your Dtears
Gmaj7Tunesmith, Ctunesmith, Gmaj7sing me a Csong
BmBut who sings a Emsong for the Amtunesmith?
Am7Who sings a song for the Gtunesmith?
She could have changed my mind if anyone could do it
That's why I know I'll always be this way
And now that I've got fame, I find there's nothing to it
I remember how I left her when I hear the people say
