Chords

[Intro] E7 [Verse 1]
E7
Well you covered your tracks and now I can't see you

E7
you had your ashes scattered at sea

E7
There's no grave to visit, no tombstone to look at

E7
you were in the New York Times obituary

A7
There's no record, no tape, no book, no movie

A7
some photographs and memories

E7
Sometimes I dial your phone number by mistake

E7
and this is what I hear
[Chorus]
E7
This is no longer a working number, baby

E7
please redial your call

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
your party doesn't live here anymore

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
if you still require help

E7
Stay on the line and an operator

E7
will try to bail you out
[Verse 2]
E7
I knew I should have seen you that Thursday

E7
I knew I shouldn't have left

E7
But you sounded so good, your spirits so up

E7
I thought I'd see you next week

A7
I say over and over if I had half a brain

A7
if I had half a brain in my head

E7
I wouldn't sit here dialing a wrong number

E7
and listening to what some recording said

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
please redial your call

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
your party doesn't live here anymore

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
well, if you still require help

E7
Stay on the line and an operator

E7
will try to bail you out
[Verse 3]
E7
I knew I should have written, written things down

E7
I always say I'll never forget

E7
Who can forget a one-eyed pilot

E7
who's a concert pianist, ah

A7
A painter, a poet, songwriter supreme

A7
my friends are blending in my head

E7
They're melting into one great spirit

E7
and that spirit isn't dead

E7
Now I may not remember everything that you said

E7
but I remember all the things that you've done

E7
And not a day goes by not an hour

E7
when I don't try to be like you

A7
You were gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

A7
and you were that way all of the time

E7
So I guess you know why I'm laughing at myself

E7
every time I dial the wrong line
[Outro]
E7
This is no longer a working number, baby

E7
This is no longer a working number

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go

E7
Gassed, stoked and rarin' to go
