[G]
[C#]
[Em] Hello, honey, it's [G] me.
What did you think [C#] when you heard me back [C] on the [Em] radio?
[A]
What [Em] did the kids [G] say when they knew it was their long-lost [Em] daddy?
Remember how we listened [C] to the radio and [D] I said that's the place [G] to be.
[Em] How I got the job [C] as an FM [D] jock the day you [Am] married me.
It [G] was two kids and I was in [C] the AM rock, [D] but 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] I am the morning [D] DJ, [Em] W-O [F]-L-D-D [C]-D-D-D-D-D.
Playing [G] all the hits for you, [D] baby.
[A]
[G] The bright [D] good morning voice [Em] who's heard but never [F]
seen.
[C] I feel it all, [G] a 45 [D]
going [Em] on 15.
The drinking I did [C] on my last big gig, [D] it made my voice [G] grow.
[Em] They said that they liked the [C] young sound [D] when they let [Am] me go.
[G] So I drifted on down [C] to Oklahoma [D] to do me a [Em] late night talk show.
[F] Now I'm working my way [C] down home [D] again near the boys at Idaho.
[Am] [D] That's how this [A] business goes.
[B] [G]
[D] I'm the DJ [Em] at W-O [C]-L-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D.
Playing [G] all the hits for you [F#m] wherever you [Am] may be.
[G]
The bright [D] good morning voice [Em] who's heard but never [F] seen.
[Am] [C] I'm feeling [G] all a 45 [D] going [E] on 15.
[Em]
Making extra money doing high school psych [D] ops, I'm the big time guest MC.
You [F] should hear me talking [C] to the little children [D] and listen what they say [B] to me.
[Em] There's a spot on the top of my head, [D] just begging for a new toupee.
[E] [F] And there's a tire around my [C] truck from sitting on my, [D] but it's never gonna [Em] go away.
Sometimes I get [C] this crazy dream [D] that I just take off in [G] my car.
[Em] But you can travel [C] on 10,000 [Am]
miles, [D] still stay where [Am] you are.
[G] I've been thinking that I should [C] start this jock and [D] then start that [Em] record store.
[F] Maybe I could [C] settle down [D] if you take me [Em] back to the old days.
Once [D#] more.
[Em]
Okay, honey.
[G] I guess he's better [C#] than me.
[C] Sure, [Em] girl, I understand.
You don't have to worry, I'm such a happy man.
