Mr. Sandman
Words & Music by Pat Ballard
Recorded by The Chordettes, 1954 (#1)
G7 CM7 CM7/6 B7
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream;
E7 A7+5 A7
Make him the cutest that I've ever seen.
D7 G7
Give him two lips like roses in clover,
C C/B Am7 Am7/G Fdim(III) G
And tell him that his lonesome nights are over.
CM7 CM7/6 B7
Sandman, I'm so alone,
E7 A7+5 A7
Don't have nobody to call my own;
Dm Dm7 Fdim(I)
Please turn on your magic beam;
C C/B D9 G7 C
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream.
Instrumental Interlude:
||: C C/B Am7 Am7/G Fdim(III) G :||
CM7 CM7/6 B7
Mr. Sandman (male voice: "Yesss?") bring me a dream
E7 A7+5 A7
Give him a pair of eyes with a "come-hither" gleam
D7 G7
Give him a lonely heart like Pagliacci
C C/B Am7 Am7/G Fdim(III) G
And lots of wavy hair like Li - ber - a - ce
CM7 CM7/6 B7
Mr Sandman, someone to hold
E7 A7+5 A7
Would be so peachy before I'm too old;
Dm Dm7 Fdim(I)
So please turn on your magic beam,
C C/B Am7 Am7/G C E7 A7+5
Mr. Sandman bring me, please, please, please,
C C/B D9 G7 C
Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream.
