     A2                               F7         E7
      Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over

      Sandman, I'm so alone (bung bung, bung bung)
      Don't have nobody to call my own (bung bung, bung bung)
     B7                         D7

      Give him the word that I'm not a rover
     D2                               A#7        A7
      Then tell him that his lonesome nights are over

      Sandman, I'm so alone
      Don't have nobody to call my own
     E7                         G7

                 D2                   E7
                 Bung bung, bung bung, bung

   (same as 1st verse)
      Mr. Sandman ("Yes?") bring us a dream
      Give him a pair of eyes with a "come-hither" gleam
      Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
      And lots of wavy hair like Liberace

      Mr. Sandman, someone to hold (someone to hold)
      Would be so peachy before we're too old
      So please turn on your magic beam
          B7       E7        B7              E7
      Mr. Sandman, bring us, please, please, please
          B7       E7         A2
      Mr. Sandman, bring us a dream

                 A2
                (Bung) bung, bung bung, bung bung, bung bung
                 Bung bung, bung bung, bung...

   When I play this song, I blow off the key change entirely.  The song
   begs for creative updates - gender and era specific references.
