INTRO:  A (x02220@1) D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1)A/G (302220@1)A/F# (202220@1)A/F (102220@1)A/E (002220@1)AWell (x02220@1)I woke up this morning, the place was such a wreck

I couldn't reach the bathroom, thought I'd better clear the deck

DI (xx0232@1)tried to call the lawyer and asked him what to do

AHe (x02220@1)referred me to his doctor, who referred me back to you

E (022100@1)                                  A (x02220@1)           DAnd (xx0232@1)when you checked the manual you kept in side the case

D (xx0232@1)     A (x02220@1)     A/G (302220@1)A/F#A/F A/EIt (002220@1)said 'put it in a cool dry place'

AI (x02220@1)drove around the city, looking for a room

That was high above the water, where my things could be in tune

DThere (xx0232@1)was no one to help me, nobody even cared

AI (x02220@1)had to go through hell to get those things up there

E (022100@1)                           A (x02220@1)                    DI (xx0232@1)paid my first subscription, then I joined the idle race

D (xx0232@1)             A (x02220@1)     A/G (302220@1)A/F#A/F A/Eand (002220@1)they said 'store it in a cool dry place'

DI (xx0232@1)got guitar, basses, amplifiers and drums

AAccordions (x02220@1)and mandolins and things that sometimes hum

DCymbals (xx0232@1)and harmonicas, capos by the score

E (022100@1)                         A (x02220@1)                   DAnd (xx0232@1)lots of things in boxes laying all around the floor

ASome (x02220@1)places they get mildew and others get too hot

Some places are so damp that everything you got just rots

DAll (xx0232@1)kinds of condensation, a direct result of rains

AThere's (x02220@1)not much compensation when everything's been stained

E (022100@1)                              A (x02220@1)       DSome (xx0232@1)have sentimental value that cannot be erased

D (xx0232@1) A (x02220@1)     A/G (302220@1)A/F#A/F A/EGo (002220@1)store it in a cool dry place

SOLO (Sorry, but I don't have the solo, just play the chords used in the verse)

DWe (xx0232@1)got solids and acoustics and some from plywood board

AAnd (x02220@1)some are trimmed in leather and some are made with gourds

DThere's (xx0232@1)organs and trombones, and reverbs we can use

E (022100@1)               A (x02220@1)          DLots (xx0232@1)of dx-7s and old athletic shoes

AI (x02220@1)bought a great big building that took up one whole block

I made an inventory of all the things in stock

DThe (xx0232@1)place was getting longer I was up all night

AI (x02220@1)used up all my pencils, but I went on despite

E (022100@1)                            A (x02220@1)           DThe (xx0232@1)blurring of my vision, the sweat upon my face

E (022100@1)                                A (x02220@1)             DI've (xx0232@1)got to put this stuff away, I mustn't leave a trace

E (022100@1)                                       A (x02220@1)         DThe (xx0232@1)landlord's breathing down my neck, he says it's a disgrace

D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1)    A/G (302220@1)A/F# (202220@1)A/F (102220@1)A/E (002220@1)   A7So (x02020@1)I said 'put it in a cool, dry, place.'



That's basically it for the song. Have fun with it. From, Ryan D. Kemp
