[Verse 1]
G          G/F#          Em7  D
Everyone I know stumbles on a song
         C          C/B           
And they love their songs, hell I 
Am         D
love their songs
G         G/F#    Em7     D
Hit after hit and tat for tit
       C                    C/B   
But it seems that I've been 
     D
gettin' it wrong

[Pre-Chorus 1]
      C                      Cm
Well, some guys are happy to hit and
 run
    G                    D
But I don't think that'd be much fun
           C                     
I'd rather turn you into all the 
Cm                    D
records I should have made

[Chorus 1]
             G     D       C      
I don't ever wanna be your one hit 
 D
wonder
G                D     C        D
Honey, would you be my greatest hit?
     G         D            C    
If I sold this song, I'd be 
       D
pimpin' ya' out
      C            Cm
Be my inspiration, darlin', be my 
box set

[Verse 2]
  G              G/F#        Em7 
I wrote my first song at the age 
   D
of 15
             C          C/B       
And I didn't touch that instrument
  Am         D
 again for a year
      G              G/F#     
But I picked it back up cause I 
           Em7          D
thought I knew how to use it
       C              C/B        
Hoping my words could nibble her 
D
ears

[Pre-Chorus 2]
      C                   Cm
But I couldn't get her to sing along
      G                      D
And I learned that you can't force a
 song
          C                    Cm 
It's like writing wedding vows for
         D
 a prostitute

[Chorus 1]
                 G     D       C 
And I don't ever wanna be your 
      D
one hit wonder
G                D     C        D
Honey, would you be my greatest hit?
     G         D            C    
If I sold this song, I'd be 
       D
pimpin' ya' out
      C            Cm
Be my inspiration, darlin', be my

[Verse 3]
  G               G/F#             
I wrote a million tunes like I was 
Em7   D
practicing
           C           C/B       
So I could get 'em all right for 
Am   D
you
G       G/F#        Em7   D
Well, I need you to be my capo
C   C/B       D
Oh, could you keep me in tune?

[Pre-Chorus 3]
          C                      
Well, you won't have to do much, 
Cm
just be yourself
          G                  
And we'll move into the Brill 
 D
Building
            C                   
And we'll audition our songs and 
       Cm
we'll let the neighbors watch

[Chorus 3]
                    G     D       
'Cause I don't ever wanna be your
