[Intro] Am Gm [Verse] F(bar) F
Gm                           Gm
And the cherry burns the corner of the page that says The end

F                             F
Is coming soon but not soon enough

Gm                                Gm
Restring all your guitars Pack up all your stuff

          Bb       Am       Gm
Cause if Robert's dad is right

          Bb       Am       Gm
We might not make it through the night

          Bb       Am       Gm
And I'd hate to go alone

Gm
Please pick up the phone
[Pre-Chorus] C Bb Am Gm Verse II
F                            F
Well a box of red and a pill or three

Gm                              Gm
And I'm calling time and temperature just for some company

F                               F
I wish you were here I wish I was too

Gm                                 Gm
I'll drink myself to sleeplessness I always do

          Bb   Am      Gm
You don't want me anymore

          Bb   Am      Gm
Since fame and fortune broke down our door

          Bb   Am      Gm
You don't give me no respect

             Gm
What did I expect
C Bb Am Gm
F                   Gm            Bb      C
If that phone don't ring one more time

F                   Gm            Bb      C
I'm gonna lose what's left of my mind

F                   Gm            Bb      C
You made a big impression for a girl of your size

F                   Gm            Bb      C
Now I can't get by without you and your big brown eyes

Bridge (over solo) Gm Bb F Gm Gm Bb F Gm Verse III
F                              F
Her hands are cold her breath is warm

Gm                        Gm
She's a port in a storm

F                           F
I'm worried now but it won't be long

Gm                                   Gm
It takes a worried man you know to sing a worried song

          Bb   Am      Gm
I've got issues yeah

          Bb   Am      Gm
Like I miss you yeah

          Bb   Am      Gm
And I wish I weren't so thick
Bb Am Gm Pre-chorus: C
Am Gm
I'm making myself sick

If that phone don't ring one more time

I'm gonna lose what's left of my mind
