Chesney Hawkes 'The One and Only'
Transcribed by Richard Boodell
 
[Intro]
B                                  E G#m F#
I am the one and only,
B        F#      G#m   E   G#m   F#     B
A
 
[Verse 1]
G#m              B     E               B     C#m
Call me, call me by my name or call me by my number
B
Put me through it
E                      F#
I'll still be doing it the way I  do it
Bm                      D  G
And yet you try to make me forget
      D      Em        D                G
Who I really am, don't tell me I'd know best
             A              B
I'm not the same as all the rest
 
[Chorus]
B        F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
   G#m      F#     B
No body I'd rather be
         F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
               G#m  F#        B     A
You can't take that away from me
 
[Verse 2]
G#m                B      E
I've been a player in the crowd scene
          B      C#m
A flicker on the big screen
   B             E             F#
My soul embraces one more in a million faces
Bm                  D      G              D
High hopes and aspirations ideas above my station
Em        D               G                  A           B
Maybe but all this time I tried to walk with dignity and pride
 
[Chorus]
B        F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
   G#m      F#     B
No body I'd rather be
         F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
               G#m  F#        B    A
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 come
Em
In different shapes and sizes
 
Am              C         F
No one can be myself like I can
             C       Dm
For this job I'm the best man
    C                F                 G            A
And while this maybe true, you are the one and only you!
 
[Solo]
A E F#m D F#m E
A E F#m D F#m E
 
[Chorus]
B        F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
G#m         F#     B
No body I'd rather be
         F#      G#m    E
I am the one and only
               G#m  F#        B
You can't take that away from me
 
B        F#      G#m      E
I am the one and only
G#m         F#     B
No body I'd rather be
         F#      G#m    E
I am the one and only
               G#m  F#        B
You can't take that away from me
