Very that there will be a 3rd one anyway so don't worry. Intro: D, G, E, G. G Some time ago a crazy dream came to me, D E G I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three, D I went to the doctor the very next day To see what kinda words he could say. G He said it was a bad dream. D I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though, They were my own dreams and they're only in my head. E, G, D, E, G G I said, "Hold it, Doc, a World War passed through my brain." D E G He said, "Nurse, get your pad, this boy's insane," D He grabbed my arm, I said "Ouch!" As I landed on the psychiatric couch, G He said, "Tell me about it." E, G, D, E, G G Well, the whole thing started at 3 o'clock fast, D E G It was all over by quarter past. D I was down in the sewer with some little lover E G When I peeked out from a manhole cover D Wondering who turned the lights on. E, G, D, E, G, G Well, I got up and walked around D E G And up and down the lonesome town. D I stood a-wondering which way to go, I lit a cigarette on a parking meter E G And walked on down the road. D It was a normal day. E, G, D, E, G G Well, I rung the fallout shelter bell And I leaned my head and I gave a yell, D "Give me a string bean, I'm a hungry man." A shotgun fired and away I ran. I don't blame them too much though, G I know I look funny. E, G, D, E, G G Down at the corner by a hot-dog stand I seen a man, I said, "Howdy friend, I guess there's just us two." E G He screamed a bit and away he flew. D Thought I was a Communist. E, G, D, E, G G Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave, D E G "Let's go and play Adam and Eve." D I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin' E G When she said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin', D You see what happened last time they started." E, G, D, E, G X3 G Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown D E G And there was nobody aroun', D I got into the driver's seat And I drove 42nd Street D In my Cadillac. Good car to drive after a war. E, G, D, E, G X3 G Well, I remember seein' some ad, D E G So I turned on my Conelrad. D E G But I didn't pay my Con Ed bill, So the radio didn't work so well. D Turned on my player- It was Rock-A-Day, Johnny singin', "Tell Your Ma, Tell Your Pa, Our Loves Are Gonna Grow Ooh-wah, Ooh-wah." E, G, D, E, G X3 G I was feelin' kinda lonesome and blue, D E G I needed somebody to talk to. D So I called up the operator of time E G Just to hear a voice of some kind. D "When you hear the beep It will be three o'clock," She said that for over an hour And I hung it up. E, G, D, E, G X3 G Well, the doctor interrupted me just about then, D E G Sayin, "Hey I've been havin' the same old dreams, D But mine was a little different you see. E G I dreamt that the only person left after the war was me. D I didn't see you around." E, G, D, E, G X3 G Well, now time passed and now it seems D E G Everybody's having them dreams. D Everybody sees themselves walkin' around with no one else. Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time. But all the people can't be all right all the time I think Abraham Lincoln said that. D E G "I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours," I said that. E, G, D, E, G X3 Honey, Just Allow Me One More Chance: Harmonica Intro: G C G G Honey, just allow me one more chance C G To get along with you. Honey, just allow me one more chance, A7 D Ah'll do anything with you. G Well, I'm a-walkin' down the road G7 With my head in my hand, C I'm lookin' for a woman A7 Needs a worried man.

I Shall Be Free: Intro: G, G, G, G , C ,G, C, C, G X2 D Well, I took me a woman late last night, I's three-fourths drunk, she looked uptight. She took off her wheel, took off her bell, Took off her wig, said, "How do I smell?" I hot-footed it . . . bare-naked . . . Out the window! Intro G Well, sometimes I might get drunk, Walk like a duck and stomp like a skunk. Don't hurt me none, don't hurt my pride 'Cause I got my little lady right by my side. (Right there Proud as can be) Intro D I's out there paintin' on the old woodshed When a can a black paint it fell on my head. I went down to scrub and rub But I had to sit in back of the tub. (Cost a quarter And I had to get out quick . . . Someone wanted to come in and take a sauna) Intro G Well, my telephone rang it would not stop, It's President Kennedy callin' me up. He said, "My friend, Bob, what do we need to make the country grow?" I said, "My friend, John, Brigitte Bardot, Anita Ekberg, Sophia Loren." (Put 'em all in the same room with Ernest Borgnine!) Intro D Well, I got a woman sleeps on a cot, She yells and hollers and squeals a lot. Licks my face and tickles my ear, Bends me over and buys me beer. (She's a honeymooner A June crooner A spoon feeder And a natural leader) intro G Oh, there ain't no use in me workin' so heavy, I got a woman who works on the levee. Pumping that water up to her neck, Every week she sends me a monthly check. (She's a humdinger Folk singer Dead ringer For A thing-A-muh jigger) intro D Late one day in the middle of the week, Eyes were closed I was half asleep. I chased me a woman up the hill, Right in the middle of an air raid drill. It was Little Bo Peep! (I jumped a fallout shelter I jumped a bean stalk I jumped a ferris wheel) intro G Now, the man on the stand he wants my vote, He's a-runnin' for office on the ballot note. He's out there preachin' in front of the steeple, Tellin' me he loves all kinds-a people. (He's eatin' bagels He's eatin' pizza He's eatin' chitlins He's eatin' bullshit!) intro D Oh, set me down on a television floor, I'll flip the channel to number four. Out of the shower comes a grown-up man With a bottle of hair oil in his hand. (It's that greasy kid stuff. What I want to know, Mr. Football Man, is What do you do about Willy Mays and Yul Brynner, Charles de Gaulle And Robert Louis Stevenson?) intro G Well, the funniest woman I ever seen Was the great-granddaughter of Mr. Clean. She takes about fifteen baths a day, Wants me to grow a cigar on my face. (She's a little bit heavy!) intro D Well, ask me why I'm drunk alla time, It levels my head and eases my mind. I just walk along and stroll and sing, I see better days and I do better things. (I catch dinosaurs I make love to Elizabeth Taylor . . . Catch hell from Richard Burton!) Enjoy! Note: Some songs might be wrong but do let the office know. Overall, enjoy!
