[Verse 1]
 D      C/D  D  C/D   D  C/D  D
Yeah-ah-ah

C/D                D            
You could have a steam train,
C/D  D

C/D       D        C/D       D
If you'd just lay down your tracks.
C/D                D   C/D    D
You could have an aeroplane, flying,
C/D     D         C/D      D
If you bring your blue sky back.


[Bridge 1]

C/D            Bm                
 All you do is call me... I'll be
              D
 anything you need.

[Verse 2]

N.C.              D          C/D  D
You could have a big dipper,
C/D           D       C/D  
Going up and down, a-round the 
     D
bends.
C/D               D      
 You could have a bumper car, 
C/D    D
bumping,
C/D     D       C/D   D    C/D
The a-musement never ends.


[Chorus 1]

        Bm  C
I wanna be,    (your Sledgehammer).
Bm  C
       Call my name.

[Verse 3]

N.C.                  D       C/D  D
Show me round your fruitcage,
C/D         D        C/D   D
'Cos I will be your honey bee.
C/D            D        C/D  D
Open up your fruitcage,
 C/D        D          C/D        
Where the fruit is as sweet as can
 D   C/D
 be.


[Chorus 2]

        Bm  C
I wanna be    (your Sledgehammer).
Bm  C
        Why don't you call my name?
Bm  C
        Ohhh! (The Sledgehammer),
Bm  C
        Put your mind at rest.
          Bm  C
I'm gonna be    (the Sledgehammer)
Bm  C
       This will be my testimony
Bm  C
       I'm your sledgehammer,
Bm  C
       Let there be no doubt about 
it.
  D     C/D
Sledge,
