Call Me Up In Dreamland

• A

Verse 1:

        A            E7
Well, I tried, and I tried,
        D              A
But the river seems so wide.
       D    E7                     A
And my head hurts and my hands are tied.

         A     E7
And it's so... hard,
            D               A
When you're standing on the yard,
      D              E7             A
Every time that your number comes a-round.

Chorus 1:

              A                   D
Call me up in Dreamland, radio to me man.
                A                 E7
Get the message to me, anyway you can.
                     A                        D
Well, let your river roll, a-way down in your soul,
              A      E7          D     A
Never to grow old... on the saxo-phone.

Verse 2:

         A               E7
From the airport, to the plane,
  D                   A
A-way to the railroad trains.
             D                E7
Why can't we take it from the top,
              A
And start all over again?

              A                 E7
Everytime you hear that whistle blow,
    D              A
You know you gotta put on your show;
      D         E7             A
Every time your number comes a-round.

Chorus 2:

              A                   D
Call me up in Dreamland, radio to me man.
                A                 E7
Get the message to me, anyway you can.
                     A                        D
Well, let your river roll, a-way down in your soul,
              A      E7          D     A
Never to grow old... on the saxo-phone.

Sax Solo:

A  E7  D  A, D  E7  A (x2)

Verse 4:

         A           E7
From the car, to the bar;
   D                          A
Or why don't you pour it in a jar?
         D
An put a label on it,
    E7                          A
And send it off to the lost and found.

             A              E7
You've gotta get it in your brain,
       D              A
But be-fore you go in-sane;
      D         E7             A
Every time your number comes a-round. (Here it comes);

Chorus 3:

              A                   D
Call me up in Dreamland, radio to me man.
                A                 E7
Get the message to me, anyway you can.
                     A                        D
Well, let your river roll, a-way down in your soul,
              A      E7          D     A
Never to grow old... on the saxo-phone.

Coda:

              A      E7          D     A
Never to grow old... on the saxo-phone.
              A      E7          D     A   A7
Never to grow old... on the saxo-pho...ne.
(Lord have mercy!)
