JAZZMAN  - Carole King


INTRO
Gm7      Am7       Dm       Ebmaj7           Csus2  
Lift me, wonīt you lift me, above the old routine
 AbM7          Ab             G
Make it nice, play it clean, Jazzman

1st sax solo  Gm7 C

         Gm9        Am7          Gm7              Am
When the Jazzmanīs testifyinī a faithless man believes
       Gm9           Am7          Gm7      Am7      G
he can sing you into paradise or bring you to your knees
       Gm9            Am7        Gm7              Am
Itīs a gospel kind of feelinī a touch of Georgia slide
  Gm9            Am7          Gm7         Am7     Dm   
a song of pure revival and a style thatīs sanctified

         Gm9  C   Gm7           Am7           Gm9
CHORUS:  Jazzman take my blues away, make my pain
    C                  Gm7               Am
the same as yours with every change you play
 Ab           G
Jazzman, oh Jazzman

2nd sax solo   Gm7 C

         Gm9       Am7               Gm7              Am
When the Jazzmanīs signifyin' and the band is windin' low
      Gm9                    Am7              Gm7     Am7     G     
 Itīs the late night side of morning in the darkness of his soul
       Gm9               Am7            Gm7                  Am
He can fill a room with sadness as he fills his horn with tears
       Gm9               Am7        Gm7     Am7     Dm
He can cry like a fallen angel when risinī time is near

         Gm9  C  Gm7           Am7            Gm9
CHORUS:  Jazzman take my blues away, make my pain
     C                 Gm7               Am
the same as yours with every change you play


             Gm7        Am7      Dm         Ebmaj7        Csus2         
 OUTRO:   Oh lift me, wonīt you lift me with every turn around
AbM7             Ab                  G
Play it sweetly, take me down, oh Jazzman

End sax solo  Gm7  C
