Hello Honey, it's me
What did you think when you heard me back on the radio?
What did the kids say when they knew it was their long lost daddy-o?
[Verse 1]
Em C Remember how we listened to the radio D G And I said "That's the place to be" Em C D Am And how I got the job as an FM Jock the day you married me? G C It was two kids and I was into AM rock D Em But I just had to run around Fmaj7 C It's been eight years since I left you babe D Am Let me tell you 'bout what's gone down
[Chorus]
G D Em Fmaj7 I am the morning DJ at W*O*L*D C G D/F# Am7 Playing all the hits for you wherever you may be G D Em Fmaj7 The bright good-morning voice who's heard but never seen C G D/F# Em7 Feeling all of forty-five going on fifteen
[Verse 2]
Em C D G The drinking I did on my last big gig it made my voice go low Em C D Am They said that they liked the young sound when they let me go G C D Em So I drifted on down to Tulsa, Oklahoma to do me a late night talk show Fmaj7 C D Am Now I worked my way down home again, near to Boise, Idaho D Am7 That's how this business goes
[Chorus]
G D Em Fmaj7 I am the morning DJ at W*O*L*D C G D/F# Am7 Playing all the hits for you wherever you may be G D Em Fmaj7 The bright good-morning voice who's heard but never seen C G D/F# Em7 Feeling all of forty-five going on fifteen
[Bridge]
Em I'm making extra money doing high school sock hops D I'm a big time guest MC Fmaj7 C You should hear me talking to the little children D B And listen what they say to me Em D I got a spot on the top of my head, just begging for a new toupee Fmaj7 C There's a tire around my gut from sitting on my --- D Em But it's never gonna go away
[Verse]
Em C Sometimes I get this crazy dream D G That I just take off in my car Em C D Am But you can travel on ten thousand miles and still stay where you are G C Thinking that I should stop disk jockeyin' D Em And start that record store Fmaj7 C D Em Maybe I could settle down if you'd take me back once more

OK honey, I see
I guess he's better than me
Sure, old girl, I understand
You don't have to worry, I'm such a happy man
