Album - Baby Bye Bye - on RCA
Records in 1972.


INTRO: G C D G

#1.
G C
I just stepped in a puddle and I sank up to my neck.
D C G
I can't see the traffic light I'll get run over yet.
G C
It cost me thirteen tokens to find my way back home.
D C G
By then they'd shut the water off and taken out my phone.

CHORUS:
C G
Since you've given me those sleep walkin' blues.
C Dm D
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues, blues, blues.
G C
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you.
D G
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues.


#2.
G C
I shook out my doormat in the middle of my bed.
D C G
My life is undernourished cause my heart is underfed.
G C
My days are rambling nightmares my nights are even worse.
D C G
Cause I can't find a way to get myself back down to earth.


CHORUS:
C G
Since you've given me those sleep walkin' blues.
C Dm D
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues, blues, blues.
G C
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you.
D G
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues.



INTERLUDE: G C G Dm G


#3.
G C
I put on Waylon Jennings but I could not hear a sound.
D C G
Yet, all my neighbors yellin' turn that country music down.
G C
I picked up my guitar to try to ease my mind.
D C
But the notes stuck to my fingers and the words they would
G
not rhyme.


CHORUS:
C G
Since you've given me those sleep walkin' blues.
C Dm D
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues, blues, blues.
G C
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you.
D G
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues.


OUTRO:
G C
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you.
D G
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues.



A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
