[Bm] I [G] like it.
We were on tour in Germany a couple of months ago, and I got this
Do you know a strange thing happened?
I [C] haven't even asked you [G] yet.
I called you from Hamburg, Germany, and you said, thanks for returning my call.
[Gb] I didn't know you had [E] called me.
Well, I'd missed you in [Bb] Sweden.
I didn't know that.
[F] I didn't know you'd been trying to call [Bm] me, though.
That's a [N] weird thing.
We were trying to call each other both at the same time, neither one knew it.
I sat up for two [Ab] nights concentrating hard.
[Gm] Well, I got your message, [Gb] and I called you
about something else, if you [Ab] remember, but you asked me about
You told me you had a song.
He said, I'm calling from Hamburg, Germany.
I said, that's [Bb] all right.
I got this little [N] hookup.
No, no.
He said, who's paying for this?
I said, I am.
He said, okay, I'll play you a song.
So what happened is he played me this great song written by
What's his name?
Bob McDill.
Bob McDill.
And I said, that's
You're right, Wynton.
That song is for me.
I mean,
it's about a guy that's talking about his woman keeping him off the streets.

What's it called?
[Abm] I Wish I Was Crazy.
I Wish I Was [Ab] Crazy Again.
I said, well, I [Eb] met an old [Ab] friend this morning, [Db] and I stopped him [Eb] and called him [Ab] by name.
[Eb] I said, the years haven't changed you.
He said, good Lord, how [Ab] you've changed.
So we stood [Eb] there and talked [Ab] on the corner, and [Db] we laughed [Eb] at the good [Ab] times we had.
[Eb] Then he asked if we're happy together.
I only smiled [Ab] and I said,
yes, she keeps [Eb] me off the [Ab] streets, and [Db] she [Eb] keeps me out [Ab] of trouble.
[Db] Sometimes [Eb] at night, Lord, [Ab] when I hear [Db] the wind, [Ab] I wish [Eb] I was crazy [Ab] again.
[Db] Yes, [Ab] I wish I [Eb] was crazy [Ab] again.
Then we stopped [Eb] for a beer [Ab] in a tavern,
[Db] and we had us [Eb] a round [Ab] or two.
[Eb] We called ourselves old esperados,
as old friends are likely [Ab] to do.
We sat [Eb] for a while [Ab] and remembered.
Then [Db] he said, [Eb] let's have just [Ab] one more.
[Eb] I said, [Bbm] I'd sure [Eb] like to join you,
but I'd best be going [Ab] on home.
[N] Yes, she [Ab] keeps [Eb] me off [Ab] the streets,
[Db] and she keeps [Eb] me [Ab] out of trouble.
[Db] But [Eb] sometimes at night, [Ab] Lord, when I [Db] hear the wind,
[Ab] I wish [Eb] I was crazy [Ab] again.
[Db]
Yes, [Ab] I wish I [Eb] was crazy [Ab] again.
