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            F           C
If I don't pick up, hang up, call back, let it ring some more,  Ohhhhhhh...
   F                                        Am                             C
If I don't pick up, pick up, the sidewinder sleep, sleep, sleeps in a coil

D  D/F# D           D/F#        G5      C9   G5                 Am
   Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her

   Call me when you try to wake her up, call me when you try to wake her

C    Em  {Play using above riff}
Ohhhh.....

                 F
There are scratches all around the coin slot
        C                                 F
Like a heartbeat baby trying to wake up
                          C
But this machine can only swallow money
                            F
you can't lay a patch by computer design
              Am                      C
Just a lot of stupid, stupid signs

F          C
Tell her
F                        C                                     F
Tell her she can kiss my ass, 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  D/F# D           D/F#        G5      C9   G5                 Am

Baby, instant soup doesn't really grab me.
     C                                                  F
Today I need something more sub - s(tub) - sub - substantial.
                                          C
A can of beans or black-eyed peas, some Nescafe and ice
    F                             Am                   C
A Candy bar, a fallen star, or a reading from Doctor Suess

D  D/F# D           D/F#        G5      C9   G5                 Am

Bm                            Am
The cat in the hat came back, wrecked a lot of havoc on the way.
Bm                                 Am
 Always had a smile and a reason to pretend,
          Bm                                    Am
But their world has flat backgrounds and little need to sleep, but to dream

 The sidewinder sleeps on his back.

D  D/F#   D  D/F#      G5           C9   G5                 Am
