It's my pleasure to introduce one of my favorite singer [E]-songwriters.
Friend of mine, personal [A] friend of mine.
[E] First time I heard Willis sing, it was in a little club that didn't have a PA system,
and he wasn't singing any [G] louder than he does now.
[F#]
[A] But everybody got quiet.
So go ahead on, Willis.
[B] It's [F#] all yours.
[Em] [A] [F#]
[A] [E]
[A]
[E]
[A] Last night, you know [F#] I couldn't sleep.
[A]
I was tossing, turning and counting [E] sheep.
To [D] tell the truth, the next thing [A] I knew,
[E] I woke up on the outside, [F] in the middle of the [A] avenue.
[Am] [E]
A policeman spied me in traffic there,
[A]
in my t-shirt and my underwear.
[E] He said, [D] son, son, you sure don't [A] look good.
[Em] [E] I hear you've been calling for your baby,
[F] all [B] over [A] the neighborhood.
And it seems I [D] was
[F#] sleepwalking [G] [G#] again last [A] night.
[D] And the way I was [F#] sleep-talking,
[Em] [Am] [B] I must have caused a terrible fright,
[E] last night [A] when I was sleepwalking.
[B]
[E] [G] [A] Someone saw me in a donut [E] shop,
[A] sitting crying on the [E] tabletop.
It [D] was not a pretty sight,
[B] I was out [A] of control.
[E] The way that I was carrying on,
by my sweet [A] jelly room.
[E] [D] I said, officer, please,
my [G] baby's got me down on [A] my knees.
[E] [A] [D] Lying there, late at [G] night,
[B] you know, [G#m] sometimes I just go out of [E] my [F] head.
And I [A] go out and sleepwalking.
[Em]
[Am] [E] [A] Later on, down in the jail [E] cell,
[A] I was hoping things would turn out [E] well.
Cause I [D] don't recall that [Am] [A] masquerade ball.
[Am] [A] [E] And I sure don't remember nothing,
[F] about that blown [A] up rubber doll.
[E] It [D] seems I was sleepwalking [G] again [A] last night.
And the [D] way I was [F#] sleep-talking,
[G] [B] I [G#m] must have caused a terrible fright,
[F] last night [A] when I was sleepwalking.
[E] Oh [A] no.
[F#m] [E] [A] Now lately I've stopped going anywhere,
taking to sleeping with a teddy bear.
[E] It's a [D] very full and rich,
[Am] imaginary [A] life.
[Em] [E] And I sure give up dreaming, y'all,
[B] about an imaginary [A] wife.
No, no more [E]
sleepwalking.
[Em] No, [A] no, [E]
no [A] more dream-talking.
[G] Sure [E] [A] enough, [Em]
[A] sleepwalking.
