Lift  me, won´t  you lift  me, above the old  routine
 Make  it nice, play it clean, Jazzman
 When  the Jazzman´s  testifyin´  a faithless  man believes
 he can sing  you into paradise  or bring  you to  your knees
 It´s  a gospel kind  of feelin´  a touch of  Georgia slide
   ( )
 a song of pure revival and a style that´s sanctified
Jazzman  take  my blues away,  make my pain
 the same  as yours with  every change you play
 Jazzman,  oh Jazzman
 When Jazzman´s  signifyin´  and the band is  windin´ low
 It´s  the late night side  of morning in  the darkness  of  his soul
 He can fill  a room with sadness  as he fills  his horns with tears
 He can cry  like a fallen angel  when risin´  time  is near
Jazzman  take  my blues away,  make my pain
 the same  as yours with  every change you play
 Oh lift  me, won´t  you lift  me with ev´ry  turn around
Play  it sweetly, take me down, oh Jazzman
 This is the closest I got. This is a great song. If somebody has something to correct
 or improve it, please do it. Enjoy it!
