Calling America Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Somebody
[C]told her that there was a [G]place like heaven
[Am]Across the water on a 747[F]
[C]Yeah, we're living in
[Am]In a moder[G]n worl[C]d[Am][G]
[C]And pretty soon she's rea[G]lly
got the notion
[Am]Of flying out across the big b[F]lue ocean
[C]Yeah, we're living in[Am]
In a [G]modern [C]world[Am][F][G]

[Pre-chorus 1]
[E]Talk is cheap on [Am]satellite
But [F]all I get is [Dm](static)[Bb]
[E]Infor[Am]mation
[E]I'm still [Am]here
re- [F]dial on auto[G]ma tic

[Chorus 1]
Calling A[C]merica
(can't get a [F]message through)
Calling A[C]merica
(that's what she [G]said to do)
Calling A[C]merica
(that's where she [F]has to be)
Calling A[C]merica (she left a [G]number for me)
Calling A[G]merica

[Verse 2]
But I'm just [C]talking to a [G]satellite
[Am]Twenty thousand miles
up in the [F]sky each night
[C]Yeah, we're living in
[Am]In a moder[G]n worl[C]d[Am][G]
All I [C]had to do was pick up the [G]phone
[Am]I'm out in space, trying to talk[F] to someone
[C]Yeah, we're living in
[Am]In a moder[G]n worl[C]d[Am][F][G]

[Pre-chorus 2]
She [E]left a number [Am]I could call
But [F]no one's there, no [Dm]one at [Bb]all
There [E]must be [Am]something
[E]going [Am]wrong
That [F]number just rings [G]on and on

[Chorus 2]
Calling A[C]merica
(can't get a [F]message through)
Calling A[C]merica
(that's what she [G]said to do)
Calling A[C]merica
(that's where she [F]has to be)
Calling A[C]merica (she left a [G]number for me)
Calling A[G]merica

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Am][F]
[C][Am][G][C][Am][G]

[Verse 3]
Said she'd [C]call
when she'd been gone a [G]while
[Am]Guess she's missing me
[F]across the miles
[C]Yeah, we're living in[Am]
In a [G]modern [C]world[G]

[Chorus 3]
Calling A[C]merica
(can't get a [F]message through)
Calling A[C]merica
(that's what she [G]said to do)

(that's where she [F]has to be)
Calling A[C]merica (she left a [G]number for me)
