     A
When I woke up this morning the place was such a wreck
  A
I couldn’t reach the bathroom thought I'd better clear the deck
  D
I tried to call the lawyer and ask him what to do
     A
He referred me to his doctor who referred me back to you
    E                            D
And when you checked the manual you kept inside the case
        A      A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
It said put it in a cool dry place

  A
I drove around the city looking for a room
          A
That was high above the water where my things could be in tune
      D
There was no one to help me nobody even cared
  A
I had to go through hell to get those things up there
  E                              D
I paid my first subscription then I joined the idle race
              A        A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
And they said store it in a cool dry place


      D
I got guitars, basses, amplifiers and drums
 A
Accordions and mandolins and things that sometimes hum
  D
Cymbals and harmonicas, capos by the score
    F                           E
And lots of things in boxes laying all around the floor


     A
Some places they get mildew and others get too hot.
     A
Some places are so damp that everything you got just rots
    D
All kinds of condensation, direct result of rain
        A
There's not much compensation when everything’s been stained
          E                   D
Some have sentimental value that cannot be erased
   A        A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
Go store it in a cool dry place

We got solids and acoustics and some with flowered boards
    A
And some are trimmed in leather and some are made with gourds
        D
There's organs and trombones and reverbs we can use
F              E
Lots of DX-7s and old athletic shoes


     A
I bought a great big building, it took up one whole block
     A
I made an inventory of all the things in stock
    D
The list was getting longer, I was up all night 
     A
I used up all my pencils but I went in spite
    E                            D
The blurry of my vision, the sweat upon my face
    E                            D
I’ve got to put this stuff away, I mustn’t leave a trace
    E                            D
The landlord’s breathing down my neck, he says it's a disgrace
          A      A/G  A/F#  A/F  E         Amaj7/9
So I said put it in a cool, dry, place
