The One and Only Chesney Hawkes
I took the first version of the tab that was here and arranged
it to something a bit simpler with the chords matching where I
think they should go in the lyrics.
First go at this!
(Intro)
B F# Abm F# B F# Abm E B A (Ring out)
(Verse 1)
[Abm]Call me, call me by my [B]name or call me by my [E]number
[B]Put me through it
[E]I?ll still be doing it the [F#]way I do it
[Bm]And yet you try to make me forge[D]t
Who I really [G]am, don?t [D]tell me I?d know [Em]best
I?m not the [G]same as all the [B]rest
(Chorus 1)
[B]I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
No [F#]body I?d rather [B]be
I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
E B A (Ring out)
You can?t take that away from me
(Verse 2)
[Abm]I?ve been a player in the cr[B]owd scene
A flicker on the [E]big screen
My [B]soul embraces [E]one more in a [F#]million faces
[Bm]High hopes and aspirations i[D]deas above my station
[G]Maybe but [D]all this time I [Em]tried to walk with [G]dignity and pride[B]
(Chorus 2)
[B]I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
No [F#]body I?d rather [B]be
I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
E B A (Ring out)
You can?t take that away from me
(Bridge)
[A]I can?t wear this uniform
[F#m]Without some compromises
[G]Because you?ll find out that we [Em]come
In different shapes and sizes
(Verse 3)
[Am]No one can be myself like [C]I can
For this job I?m the [F]best man
And [C]while this maybe [F]true, you are the on[G]e and only [A]you!
(SOLO)
(Chorus 3) x 2
[A]I am the [E]one and only[F#m]
No [E]body I?d rather [A]be
I am the [E]one and only[F#m]
You can?t take [E]that away from [A]me
(Chorus 4) x 2
[B]I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
No [F#]body I?d rather [B]be
I am the [F#]one and only[Abm]
You can?t take th[E]at away from [B]me
