F                  D#           Dm
Hey mister, that's me upon the jukebox 
F                  D#               A#
I'm the one that's singing this sad song 
F              D#             Dm            Gsus  G7
I'll cry every time that you slip in one more dime 
Gm7                      C7                  F  Gm7  C
And let the boy sing the sad one, one more time

Dm            G7           Dm          G7
Southern California is as blue as the boy can be 
D#           A#
Blue as the deep blue sea 
          Dm           G7
Won't you listen to me now 
            Dm           G7            Dm          G7
I need your Golden Gated cities like a hole in the head 
       D#          A#         F  D# A# C
Like a hole in the head, I'm free!

F            Am         Dm
I do believe I'm headed home 
    D#                A#              C        F
Hey mister, can't you see that I'm as dry as a bone 
Dm           Am               A#
I think I'll spend some time alone 
 D#                A#               D#           C
Unless you found a way of squeezing water from a stone

        Dm              G7          Dm           G7
Let the doctor and the lawyer do as much as they can 
       D#           A#
Let the springtime begin 
        Dm           G7
Let the boy become a man 
      Dm               G7           Dm               G7
I have wasted too much time just to sing you this sad song 
    D#                  A#                   F  Gm7 C
I've been this lonesome picker a little too long

Well, I've been spreading myself thin these days
G7             Dm               G7
don't you know
Dm            G7.......repeat to fade
Good-bye
