Am Em
I met a man with a face, it was a real disgrace

Pictures he took and put them in a little book
Am D
So ambitious was he, he even took a picture of me
G D
Then one day, he opened up a studio (start recording now)
Am Em
He tried to make it pay, making hit records, you know

And he asked me along, write him a little song
Am D
I got the studio free, just sign this paper for me
