[Chorus 1]
I'm [B]calling out from [F#]Scatland
I'm [G#m]calling out from Scatman's [D#m]World
If you [E]wanna break free
You better [B]listen to me
You've got to [C#m]learn how to see
In your [F#]fantasy
I'm [B]calling out from [F#]Scatland
I'm [G#m]calling out from Scatman's [D#m]World
If you [E]wanna break free
You better [B]listen to me
You've got to [C#m]learn how to see
In your [F#]fantasy

[Verse 1]
[B]Everybody's talkin' [F#]something very shockin'
Just to [G#m]keep on blockin'
what they're [D#m]feeling inside
But [E]listen to me, brother,
you just [B]keep on walkin'
'Cause [C#m]you and me and sister
ain't got [F#]nothing to hide
[B]Scatman, fat man,
[F#]black and white and brown man
[G#m]Tell me 'bout the color of your s[D#m]oul
If [E]part of your solution
isn't [B]ending the pollution
Then [C#m]I don't want to hear your stories told[F#]

[Interlude 1]
I want to welcome you to Scatman's World

[Chorus 2]
I'm [B]calling out from [F#]Scatland
I'm [G#m]calling out from Scatman's [D#m]World
If you [E]wanna break free
You better [B]listen to me
You've got to [C#m]learn how to see
In your [F#]fantasy

[Verse 2]
[B]Everybody's born to com[F#]pete as he chooses
But [G#m]how can someone win
if winning [D#m]means that someone loses?
I [E]sit and see and wonder
what it's [B]like to be in touch
No [C#m]wonder all my brothers
and my [F#]sisters need a crutch
I [B]want to be a human being,
[F#]not a human doing
I [G#m]couldn't keep that pace up if I [D#m]tried
The [E]source of my intention
really [B]isn't crime prevention
My in[C#m]tention is prevention of the [F#]lie, yeah
