[Intro]
 Fmaj7        Bbmaj7/C  Bb6/C
| /  /  /  / | /        /  /  / |x2


[Verse 1]

F               Fmaj7                        Bb6/C
Married to the road, there's no other way to say it
C/E                  Bb/D         Fmaj7
Baby found out quite early in the game
       F             Fmaj7                     Bb6/C
That I belong to my songs, so she chose not to play it
      C/E                        Bb/D              C/D
Now I walk down the street and I hear them call my name


[Chorus 1]

G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Bm7          Em        C/D     D     C/D
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
    Gmaj7       Em           C/D
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Am7                      C6/G  G*
Who sings a song for the tune--smith?

[Verse 2]
    F                     Fmaj7                Bb6/C
She could have changed my mind if anyone could do it
C/E                       Bb/D           Fmaj7
   That's why I know I'll always be this way
    F                 Fmaj7                      Bb6/C
And now that I've got fame, I find there's nothing to it
    C/E                          Bb/D           C/D
I remember how I left her when I hear the people say


[Chorus 2]
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Bm7          Em        C/D     D     C/D
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
    Gmaj7       Em           C/D
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Am7                      C6/G  G*
Who sings a song for the tune--smith?

[Bridge]
F                   Cmaj7
 This hotel room is all I own
Am               Em
 Now that all my friends are gone
F                  Cmaj7
 All alone at the break of day
   F                   Bb     Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
 I still can hear them say


[Chorus 3]
 G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
(Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song)
Bm7          Em        C/D     D     C/D
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
    Gmaj7       Em           C/D
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Am7                      C6/G  G*
Who sings a song for the tune--smith?


[Outro]
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
Bm7          Em        C/D     D     C/D
Give me your laughter, give me your tears
G          Am/G       Gmaj7      Am/G
Tunesmith, tunesmith, sing me a song
    Gmaj7       Em           C/D
But who sings a song for the tunesmith?
Am7                      C6/G  G*
Who sings a song for the tune--smith? [Repeat till fade]
