     C                     D          Am      D       G 
Even though it's been some time since he made fair to answer 
          C                     A           D               Em 
'Cause he feints and fades from view like a fighter ducks a glove 
         C                D        Am     D     Em 
Though I play the highway kind and he the china dancer 


     C             D 
If I was afraid to break or bleed 
Em           C            Em  C     D 
I would find someone much easier to need 
G        C                     A             D                   Em                       
But when drifters' dreams come true and when push comes round to shove 
  C    D        C      D     G     C C/B A  D   
236-6132 is the number of my love  


G C    Am       D             Em 
236-6132 is the number I must call 
     C              D        Am       D      G 
When Casey's at the bat, and Sleeping Beauty slumbers 
         C               A           D                  Em 
When the frost is on the dew, and my teardrops trip and fall 
         C               D             Am         D        Em 
'Til the world is frozen flat, and the long night snows me under 


       C            D 
On the icy nails of no return 
Em      C                    Em      C        D 
We will strike the match and set the night to burn 
 G          C             A            D                Em                       
'Cause when Beauty wakes anew and when Casey cracks the ball 
  C    D        C    D            
236-6132 is the only number 


Instrumental: G  C C/B A  D  (4x)

Em       D              Am             C 
I am not looking for no champion of my freedom 
G    C  G         C  Am     D 
I am anything but anybody's foundling 
Em          Bm             Am 
Sometimes I feel like I am wandering 
   C      G       C      G       
An old balloon on broken string 
  C      G    C      G       
A bubble in a baby's dream 
  C        G      C      G       
A lost and lonely buzzardling 
  C       G       C      G       
A vulture beating creaky wings 
      C     G      C        Am   D 
While angry storms go gathering around me 


G C    Am       D            Em 
236-6132 is the number of my love 
         C                  D            Am     D        G 
When the clouds are howling rain and the sky is black as ashes 
            C                 A                D              Em 
'Cause it's sunlight where we flew, though the trail is cold above 
        C               D              Am        D         Em 
And the raven quakes in vain while the lightning barks and flashes 


          C                   D 
Still the clouds will fade to grey cocoons 
    Em                 C                 Em    C        D 
And spring the winking monarchs, nodding never-blinking moons 
G        C                  A         D              Em                       
When the crows come home to roost and eagle weds the dove 
  C    D        C      D     G     C C/B A  D   
236-6132 is the number of my love
