Biography:

I really like this song, it's simple acoustic, but it is really catchy.
There weren't any tabs for this song (which really bummed me out) so I tried to listen
it carefully and figure out the chords. The entire song is pretty much the same chord
over and over with hammers and pull offs thrown in now and then.

(Come On)
C Am C G C

[Chorus]
C Am
You don’t need to change a thing about you babe
F
I’m telling you
G C
From where I sit, you’re one of a kind

C Am
Relationships, I don’t know why, they never work you and they make you cry
F G C
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind

[Verse 1]
C Am
Well I been down and I need your help I’ve been feeling sorry for myself
F G C
Don’t hesitate to boost my confidence

C Am
I been lost and I need direction, I could use a little love-protection
F G C
What do you say, honey, come to my defense?

C Am
I’ll stand up for you if it’s what you need and I can take a punch, I don’t mind to bleed
F G C
As long as afterwards you feel bad for me

C Am
And you give me all of your attention I got deep desire and it needs quenchin’
F G C
I think that’s pretty plain for you to see

C Am
Hell, enough about me and more about you cause that’d be the gentlemanly thing to do
F G C
I hope you like your men sweet and polite

C Am
I thought I was done with telling you but I ain’t nearly halfway through
F G
I got a few more things I’d like to say to you tonight

[Chorus]
C Am
You don’t need to change a thing about you babe
F
I'm telling you
G C
From where I sit you’re one of a kind

C Am
Relationships, I don’t know why, they never work out and they make you cry
F G C
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind

[Verse 2]
You always did kind of drive me crazy and pissed me off ‘cause I let it faze me
But I never wanted my time with you to end
Now I’m back in town for a day or two and mostly I came back just to see you
I’m leaving now but I don’t want to go
You don’t need to change a thing about you babe
I’m telling you
From where I sit you’re one of a kind
Relationships, I don’t know why, they never work out and they make you cry
But the guy that says goodbye to you is out of his mind
