First of all when I say F* I mean this drop: E-1- B-1- G-0- D-2- A-x- E-x- ----------------------------------- One Man Band Leo Sayer

^CWell ever^Amybody knows down ladbrook grove You have to ^Dmleap acros^Fs the street You can ^Glose your li^Emfe under a taxi cab You gotta ^Fhave eyes^C in your feet

^CYou find a nice sof^Amt corner and you sit right down Take ^Dmup your guitar^F and play But then the ^Glaw man comes ^Emsays move along So you ^Fmove alon^Cg all day (Personally I would put the last part of the second verse here too, it's very effective)

(NC) C Well Im a one man band

^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 F F* Dm F And oh oh oh look at the rain falling F F* Dm G Oh oh oh look at it rain

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.
