     A   
When I woke up this morning the place was such a wreck

  A   
I couldn’t reach the bathroom thought I'd better clear the deck

  D   
I tried to call the lawyer and ask him what to do

     A   
He referred me to his doctor who referred me back to you

    E                               D   
And when you checked the manual you kept inside the case

        A      A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
It said put it in a cool dry place
[Verse 2]
  A   
I drove around the city looking for a room

          A   
That was high above the water where my things could be in tune

      D   
There was no one to help me nobody even cared

  A   
I had to go through hell to get those things up there

  E                                 D   
I paid my first subscription then I joined the idle race

              A        A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
And they said store it in a cool dry place
[Middle 8]
      D   
I got guitars, basses, amplifiers and drums

 A   
Accordions and mandolins and things that sometimes hum

  D   
Cymbals and harmonicas, capos by the score

    F                              E   
And lots of things in boxes laying all around the floor
[Verse 3]
     A   
Some places they get mildew and others get too hot.

     A   
Some places are so damp that everything you got just rots

    D   
All kinds of condensation, direct result of rain

        A   
There's not much compensation when everything’s been stained

          E                      D   
Some have sentimental value that cannot be erased

   A        A/G  A/F# A/F E      E7
Go store it in a cool dry place

       D   
We got solids and acoustics and some with flowered boards

    A   
And some are trimmed in leather and some are made with gourds

        D   
There's organs and trombones and reverbs we can use

F                 E   
Lots of DX-7s and old athletic shoes
[Verse 4]
     A   
I bought a great big building, it took up one whole block

     A   
I made an inventory of all the things in stock

    D   
The list was getting longer, I was up all night 

     A   
I used up all my pencils but I went in spite

    E                               D   
The blurry of my vision, the sweat upon my face

    E                              D   
I’ve got to put this stuff away, I mustn’t leave a trace

    E                                     D   
The landlord’s breathing down my neck, he says it's a disgrace
(break)
          A      A/G  A/F#  A/F  E         Amaj9
So I said put it in a cool, dry, place
