The Telephone Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Before [C]a w[G]ord was s[C]aid
Before the dialing tone
Before the line went dead
Before you found the [F]phone
[G]And after all this [C]time
You find it hard to speak
When words are hard to find
It makes you sound so weak[F],
[G]weak
Unless you [C]call that number [F]again
You'll never hear him [G]speak
And if you [C]call him up tomorrow
[G]We can talk [F]today[G]
I know you'll [C]never say [G]sorry[F]
An[G]d all the t[Em]hings he s[G]aid,
[C]and all the things you heard
Are running round your head,
every single [G]word[F]
[G]An d after all those [C]days,
before you made that call
He knew a thousand ways,
to make you feel that [F]small, [G]small
And if you [C]never read again,
I [F]bet he wouldn't care at [G]all
And if you [C]call him up tomorrow,
[G]we can talk [F]today[G]
I know you'll [C]never say sorry
till he [G]walks [F]away[G]
And if you [C]call him up tomorrow,
we can [G]talk [F]today[G]
I know you'd [C]never say sorry till
he [G]walks [F]away[G][Em][G][C]
[F]
[G]So after all this time,
[C]you find it hard to speak
When words are hard to find,
they make you sound so weak[F], w[G]eak
Unless you [C]call that number [F]again,
they'll never hear you [G]speak
And if you [C]call him up tomor[F]row,
[G]we can talk [F]today[G]
I know you'll [C]never say sorry
till he [G]walks [F]away[G]
And if you [C]call him up tomorrow
[G]we can talk [F]today[G]
I know you'll [C]never say sorry
till he [G]walks [F]away
[G]The day walks away
