[Intro]

C Am F (x2)

[Verse 1]
              C              Am                 F
What would it sound like if you were the songwriter
          C         Am           F
And you made your living off of me?
          Em                  Am                F
Would you detail your near-constant consternation?
                    Em                 Am                 F
Or the way my very presence makes your muses up and flee?


[Chorus 1]
Em                  Am           F
Goodbye, little songbird, I can leave
Em           Am                     E           F
Goodbye, my love, is there anything else you need?

C Am F (x2)
Ad lib


[Verse 2]
               C             Am                F
What would it sound like if you were the songwriter
         C           Am        F
And you did your living around me?
            Em         Am             F
Would you undress me repeatedly in public
                  Em        Am            F
To show how very noble and naked you can be?


[Chorus 2]
Em                  Am                 F
Goodbye, little songbird, now you're free
                      Em          Am
Don't forget I'm the only fan of yours
                      E             F
Who has the sense to ever leave you be
               E          F
How could you do this to me?

C Am Em (x2)
Ad lib

[Otro]
               C             Am                  F
What would it sound like if you were the songwriter
           C            Am              F
And loving me was your unsung masterpiece?
