INTRO:  G   C   D  G  
#1.
GI just stepped in a puddle and I Csank up to my neck.
I Dcan't see the traffic light I'll Cget run over Gyet.
GIt cost me thirteen tokens to Cfind my way back home.
By Dthen they'd shut the water off and Ctaken out my Gphone.
CHORUS:
Since you've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
You've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Dmblues, blues, Dblues.
I Gdon't know if I'll wake up Cfrom this dream of you.
You've Dgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
#2.
GI shook out my doormat in the Cmiddle of my bed.
My Dlife is undernourished cause my Cheart is underGfed.
GMy days are rambling nightmares my Cnights are even worse.
Cause I Dcan't find a way to get myCself back down to Gearth.
CHORUS:
Since you've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
You've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Dmblues, blues, Dblues.
I Gdon't know if I'll wake up Cfrom this dream of you.
You've Dgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
INTERLUDE:  G   C   G   Dm  G  
#3.
GI put on Waylon Jennings but I Ccould not hear a sound.
Yet, Dall my neighbors yellin' turn that Ccountry music Gdown.
GI picked up my guitar to Ctry to ease my mind.
But the Dnotes stuck to my fingers and the Cwords they would 
not Grhyme.
CHORUS:
Since you've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
You've Cgiven me those sleep walkin' Dmblues, blues, Dblues.
I Gdon't know if I'll wake up Cfrom this dream of you.
You've Dgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
OUTRO:
I Gdon't know if I'll wake up Cfrom this dream of you.
You've Dgiven me those sleep walkin' Gblues.
A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
