Hello this is long distance, who do you wish to call?
Hello this is long distance, who do you wish to call?
Hello this is long distance, who do you wish to call?
[Verse]
A D Spent last winter playing in the sand A D With the prisoners of the motherland A D E Damn hotel is feeling like a cell A D And even paradise can be so cruel A D Sitting by the swimming pool A D Trying to keep my head together A D In that hot Australian weather A D E Three days to kill and my per diem's getting low Bm 'Cause I spent all my money calling long distance

Bm E A Calling long distance, such a long way from home F#m E F#m E Am I talking to long distance, can you put me through? F#m E Twelve thousand miles but I've got no resistance D D A Long distance, long distance, long distance, long distance A D Now the Road Hog's face is turning red A D Larry's still asleep in bed A D E Romeo he can't get no head at all A D And the Doctor looks on so annoyed A D You disappoint me, Mr. Boyd A D E And the Electric Dwarf wishes he was six foot tall Bm Now Romeo's patience is wearing thin A D C'mon baby, let me in A D E It's five a.m. and I've been creeping 'round the hall Bm Got no resistance calling long distance

Bm E A You sound so close but your such a long way from home F#m E F#m E Am I talking to long distance, can you put me through? F#m E Twelve thousand miles but I've got not resistance D D A Long distance, long distance, long distance, long distance Bm Still no points for my merrymen A D Except Ricard, he just scored ten A D Now Road Hog's getting drunk again A D And I only get to hold my pen A D E Instead of what I love to hold the most Bm I feel so lonesome I could cry A D Count the hours as they roll by A It's day time now D E I think I'll make a call F#m E Hello long distance, calling long distance

Bm E A You sound so close but you're such a long way from home E A You're such a long way from home Bm F#m A E Have to admit I got no resistance to the red light on the wall Bm F#m The message said I had a call D A Long distance, long distance, long distance, long distance
