Intro:
E MajorE                  A augmentedA        E MajorE
I cut my teeth on Gumbo rock, Benny Spellman and Dr. John
Sweet Erma Thomas and Frogman Henry
    F#F#           BB
Used to boogie woogie all night long
A augmentedA
Though I love rock n' roll the acoustic guitar
    E MajorE
Was the only way I had of becomin' a star
  F#F#
I'm doin' really nice and travellin' around
     BB                  A augmentedA  BB
But they won't play my record in my old home town

E MajorE      A augmentedA
But if I had saxophones
                     E MajorE
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
     A augmentedA
If I had saxophones
                             BB A augmentedA
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D MajorD J

E MajorE
Livin' by the ocean, sometimes I get the notion
  A augmentedA         E MajorE
To take my Janey down town
We hang out in a funky little bar
   F# minorF#m          BB
They call it the "Shipwreck Lounge"
    A augmentedA
Well we get kind of drunk and we play rock n' roll
E MajorE
Grabbin' everybody right down in his soul
F#F#
When we get to cookin' somethin's still wrong
    BB                     A augmentedA   BB
There's still somethin' missin' from them good ole songs

  E MajorE     A augmentedA
But if we had saxophones
                  E MajorE
Big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
     A augmentedA
If we had saxophones
                              BB   A augmentedA
I could make that joint shimmy like a big California earth quake

   E MajorE     A augmentedA
Yeah if we had saxophones
                     E MajorE
Yeah, big baritone cleanin' up the muddy breaks
     A augmentedA
If we had saxophones
                             BB A augmentedA
I could get some recognition from that Mobile, Alabama D MajorD J
