[E] But brother Dexter [A] just trust your sense, [Am] stop that waiting [E] and kill that match.
[G] Toot my trumpet [F#m] and start [B] the fun and play in [G#] such a way that you'll come back to [E] your son.
In [C#] high, high, [F#] [D#] high society, in [F#m] high, but this, but this, but this, but the thought I said.
[B] Society, but the, the, the, but the, yes, [E] but you, can you dig old Satchmo swinging in the beautiful [C#m] high society you dig?
