Hey Mister Thats Me Up On The Jukebox Chords

(ver. 2)
James Taylor
[Chorus]
 
F                  Eb           Dm
Hey mister, that's me up on the jukebox.
F                  Eb               Bb
I'm the one that's singing this sad song.
F                    Eb
Well, I'll cry every time
         Dm               Gsus4
That you slip in one more dime
    C
And let the boy sing the sad one,
            Eb Bb F C
One more time.
 
 
[Verse]
 
Dm           G                 Dm
Southern California, that's as blue
       G
As the boy can be,
Eb          Bb
Blue as the deep blue sea,
          Dm              G
Won't you listen to me now.
            Dm           G
I need your golden gated cities
       Dm          G
Like a hole in the head,
            Eb          Bb         F Eb Dm C
Just like a hole in the head, I'm free.
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
F                  Eb           Dm
Hey mister, that's me up on the jukebox.
F                  Eb               Bb
I'm the one that's singing this sad song.
F                    Eb
Well, I'll cry every time
         Dm               Gsus4
That you slip in one more dime
    C
And let the boy sing the sad one,
            Eb Bb F C
One more time.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
Dm   Am                 Bb
I do believe I'm headed home.
    Eb                Bb
Hey mister, can't you see that
       C        F
I'm as dry as a bone.
Dm           Am               Bb
I think I'll spend some time alone,
       Eb                  Bb
Yes, unless you've found a way
             Gm           C
Of squeezing water from a stone.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
        Dm             G
Let the doctor and the lawyer do
   Dm           G
As much as they can.
        Eb           Bb
Let the springtime begin.
        Dm           G
Let the boy become a man.
       Dm              G
I done wasted too much time
        Dm                G
Just to sing you this sad song.
       Eb                 Bb                  F Eb Dm C
I done been this lonesome picker a little too long.
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
F                  Eb           Dm
Hey mister, that's me up on the jukebox.
F                  Eb               Bb
I'm the one that's singing this sad song.
F                    Eb
Well, I'll cry every time
         Dm               Gsus4
That you slip in one more dime
    C
And let the boy sing the sad one,
            Eb Bb F C
One more time.
 
Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm G
 
Dm        G                Dm
I've been spreading myself thin these days,
G                Dm G
Don't you know?
    Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm G Dm G
Goodbye.
