Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C]

[Verse 1]
Every morning just [F]as soon
as it's [Dm]light
[G]Get out of bed and I'm [C]feeling alright
Make me some coffee and
I sit [F]down [Dm]alone
[G]The rest of the day I'm
on the [C]telephone

[Verse 2]
[C]Hang up, [F]hold [Dm]on
[G]You got a dime so you [C]come on so strong
Save your money and [F]let me [Dm]be[C]
[G]Hang up the phone and quit both[Dm]ering me
[C]I got a phone

[Verse 3]
in my bedroom
and [F]one in the barn
[Dm]A ph[G]one in my car and
[C]one in the yard
A phone on my saddle for when
[F]I'm out on the range
[G]A phone in my pocket for when
I'm [C]down at the grange

[Verse 4]
[C]Hang up, [F]hold [Dm]on
[G]You got a dime so you come on [C]so strong
Save your money and [F]let me [Dm]be[C]
[G]Hang up the phone and quit [F]bothering [C]me

[Verse 5]
[C]Now with devaluation all over
[F]the [Dm]land[G]
The whole wide world has got
[C]more money in their hand
They'll be calling me up from
[F]Peking and [Dm]Nome
[G]I'm going to rip out my telepho[C]ne
