[Em]
[D#]
[G] [C#] [Em]
Hello, honey, [D#] it's me.
[Em]
[Bm] What did you think [C#] when you heard me back [C] on the radio?
[Em]
[A] What did the kids [G] say when they knew it [F] was their long lost [Em] daddy, oh?
I remember how we listened [C] to the radio, and [D] I said, that's the place [G] to be.
[Em] And how I got the job [C] as an FM jock [D] the day you married [Am] me.
[G] It was two kids and I was [C] into AM rock, but [D] I just had to run [Em] around.
[F] It's been eight years [C] since I left you, babe.
[D] Let me tell you about what's [Am] gone down.
[B] [G] [E]
[G] I am the [D] morning DJ [Em] at W-O [F]-L-D,
[C] [G] playing [Am] all [G] the hits for [D] [Em] you, [D] wherever you [Am] may be.
[G] The bright [D] good morning voice, [Em] who's heard but never [F] seen,
[C] feeling [G] all the
[D] 45s going on [Em] 15.
The drinking I did [C] on my last big gig, [D] it made my voice [G] go low.
[Em] They said that they liked the [C] young sound when [D] they let [Am] me go.
[G] So I drifted on down [C] to Tulsa, Oklahoma [D] to do me a late [Em] night talk show.
[Am] Now I've worked my way [C] down home again [D] near the boys at [Am] Idaho.
[D] That's how this [Am] business goes.
[B] [A] [G] [E] [G] I am the [D] morning DJ [Em] at W.O [F].L.D.
[C]
Playing [Em] all the hits for [G]
you [D] wherever you [Am] may be.
[G] The bright [D] good morning voice [Em] who's heard but never [F] seen.
[C] Feeling all [G] the [D] 45's going on [Em] 15.
I'm making extra money doing high school.
My [D] cops are the big time guest [F] MC's.
Hear me talking [C] to the little children [D] and listen what they say [B] to me.
I [Em] got a spot on the top of my head [D] just begging for them to pay.
[F] There's a fire around the [C] yuck from sitting on it [D] but it's never gonna go [Em] away.
Sometimes I [C] get this crazy dream [D] that I just take off in [G] my car.
But you can [Em] travel long 10,000 [C]
miles [Bm] and still stay [Am] where you are.
[G] Thinking that I [C] should stop this [D] jockeying and start that [Em] record store.
[F] Maybe I [C] could settle down [D] and take this back [Em] once [D#] more.
[Em]
[F#] [Em] Okay honey [D#] I see.
[Bm] I guess he's better [C#] than me.
[C] Sure [Em] old girl I understand.
You don't have to worry I'm such [F] a happy [Em] man.
[G] I am the [D] morning DJ [Em] at W.O [F].L.D.
[C] [G] [Am] Playing [G] all the hits [D] for [Em] you [D] wherever you [Am] may [Em] be.
[G] The bright [D] good morning voice [Em] who's heard but never [F] seen.
[C]
Feeling [G] all the [D] 45's going [Em] on 15.
