Written and recorded by Kenny Rogers 1977 D Em7 A7 D I wouldn’t listen…and I couldn’t see, D D/F# G D/A A7 D and all I have left now are words you said to me. [Verse 1] D Sing your song sweet music man, D G/D Cause I won't be there to hold your hand like I used to, G D G/D D I'm through with you, D A7 You’re a hell of a singer and a powerful man, A7 D but you surround yourself with people who demand so little of you. [Verse 2] D You touched my soul with your beautiful song, D G/D you even had me singing along right with you, G D G/D D you said I need you, D A7 then you changed the words and added harmony, A7 D and you sang the song you had written for me to someone new. [Chorus 1] D G A7 D But nobody sings a love song quite like you do, D G A7 D and nobody else could make me sing along, D G A7 and nobody else could make me feel, A7 D D/C# Bm G that things are right when I know they’re wrong, D A7 D nobody sings a love song quite like you. [Verse 3] D Sing your song sweet music man, D G/D you travel the world with a six piece band that does for you, G D what you ask it to, D A7 and 'ya try to stay young but the songs you sung, A7 D to so many people have all begun to come back on you. [Verse 4] D So sing your song sad music man, D G/D you're making your living doing one night stands that prove to you, G D they don't need you, D A7 you're still a helluva singer but a broken man, A7 D but you’ll keep on looking for one last fan to sing to. [Chorus 2] D G A7 D But nobody sings a love song quite like you do, D G A7 D and nobody else could make me sing along, D G A7 and nobody else could make me feel, A7 D D/C# Bm G that things are right when they're wrong with a song, D A7 D nobody sings a love song quite like you. D So sing your song sweet music man A7 D I believe in you C Bm A D
