[Cm]
[F] [Bb] [Eb] A mystery man [C] came over and he said,
[Bb] I'm out of sight.
[Eb] He said, for a nominal service charge,
I could meet [Bbm] Nirvana tonight.
[Eb] If I was ready, willing, and able
to pay him his [C] regular fee,
he would drop all the rest,
expressing his prayers and devoting his attention [G] to me.
[Cm] But I said,
[Am] Oh, [Eb] dear brother,
[A] who you jiving with that cosmic [C] dream?
Now, who you jiving with that [Eb] cosmic [Gb] dream?
[Dm] [C] [G] [Am] Oh, [Bb] dear
[Gm] [Cm]
[F] [C] [Bb] [Bb] brother,
The [Em] mystery man got nervous.
He just [Bb] crowned the bed.
[Eb] [Bbm] He reached in the [E] pocket of the mystery robe
and he whipped out a shaving [C] kit.
Now, I thought it was a razor.
Again, the woman grew.
[Eb] But he told me [N] right then and there,
when the top was a barbed wire room,
[Eb] with the oil of ambrosia
and [C] the dust of the grand vase.
He said, you might not believe this little [G] fellow,
but it will cure your asthma too.
And [Bb] I said,
[A] Oh, dear [Eb] [Gm] brother,
[Cm] who you jiving with that cosmic [Gb] dream?
[Cm] [Am] Oh, [Eb] dear brother,
[G] don't you [Cm] wear your jumping suit.
[F] Don't waste [Bb] your time.

[Bb] I've [Eb] got troubles at my home, I said,
and you can't help me out, so
take your meditations and your [E] preparations
[Eb] and ram it [C] up your [Db] snout.
[G] But I got a crystal ball,
[Eb] he [C] said,
and held it to the light.
So I [Bb] snatched it [F] all away from him
and I showed him how to do it right.
[Gb] [Eb] I wrapped a [F] newsletter around [Eb] my [C] head
so I [Gm] looked like [F] I would [Bb] feed.
I said [F] such mongrel [Eb] junk old man
I told him he [F] was going to [Gm] see.
I robbed his rings [Eb] and pocket watch
and everything [F] else I found.
[Eb] [C] [Bb] I had that sucker hypnotized,
he couldn't even [F] make a [Eb] sound.
I proceeded to [F] tell him the [Gm] future's there
and promise he was [F] hanging [Eb] around, I said.
Even rice [Ab] off meat has just gone up
and your old [C] lady has just gone down.
[Cm]
[D] [Eb] [Gm]
Now is that a real poncho
[Ebm] or is that a serious [Bb] poncho?

[C] so don't you waste your time on me.
