[Verse 1]
---------------------
F                                          C
This here is the place where I will be staying
      F
There isn't a number, you can call the pay phone
C                                        F
Let it ring a long, long, long, long time
                             Am                    C
If I don't pick up, hang up, call back, let it ring some more
F C
Oh
   F
If I don't pick up, pick up
               Am                              C
The sidewinder sleeps, sleeps, sleeps in a coil
D                         G
Call me when you try to wake her up

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
C
Oh

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Em               F
  There are scratches all around the coin slot
       C
Like a heartbeat, baby trying to wake up
F                          C
 But this machine can only swallow money
                            F
You can't lay a patch by computer design
                   Am                  C
It's just a lot of stupid, stupid signs
F       C
Tell her
F                        C
Tell her she can kiss my ass
                                 F
Then laugh and say that you were only kidding
                               Am                             C
That way she'll know that it's really, really, really, really me, me
D                         G
Call me when you try to wake her up

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
C Em
Oh

[Verse 3]
---------------------
F
Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me
     C                                       F
Today I need something more substubsubsubstantial
                                       C
A can of beans or blackeyed peas, some Nescafe and ice
     F                            Am                  C
A candy bar, a falling star, or a reading from Doctor Seuss
D                         G
Call me when you try to wake her up



[Bridge]
---------------------
Bm7
   The Cat in the Hat came back
Am7
Wreaked a lot of havoc on the way
Bm7                                  Am7
   Always had a smile and a reason to   pretend
               Bm7
But their world   has flat backgrounds
           Am7                       C
And little need to sleep but to dream
               Em
The sidewinder sleeps on his back
D                         G
Call me when you try to wake her up

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                  G
I can always sleep standing up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
C
Oh
Em D                           G
   Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                           G
Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                  G
I can always sleep standing up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
C
Oh
Em D                           G
   Call me when you try to wake her up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                  G
I can always sleep standing up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
D                  G
I can always sleep standing up
C       G             Am
Call me when you try to wake her
C                             Em      D
 We've got to boogie, boogie, move on this one
