Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Gsus2]I'm[Dm][Gsus2]
in the phone booth,
it's the one across the [G]hall[Dm][Gsus2]
If [G]you don't answer,
I'll just ring it [Gsus2]off the
[G]wall[Gsus2][Dm][Gsus2]
I [G]know he's [Dm]there,
but [Gsus2]I just had to call[G][Gsus2][Dm]
Don't leave me hanging on
the [G]telephone[Am]
[Dm]Don't [Am]leave me hanging
[Dm]on the telep[G]hone[Am]
I [G]heard your mother
now she's [F]going out the door
[Am]Did she just go to work
or [F]just go to the store?
[Am]All those things she said
I [F]told you to ignore
[Em]Oh, why can't we t[Dm]alk again?
[Am]Oh, why can't we talk [Dm]again
[Am]Oh, why can't we t[Dm]alk again
Don't [Em]leave me [Dm]hanging
on the [G]telephone
[Am]Don't [Dm]leave me hanging
[Am]on the telep[G]hone[Am]
It's good to hear your voice,
[F]you know it's been so long
[Am]If I don't get your call
then [F]everything goes wrong
[Am]I wanna te[G]ll you[C] something
[F]you've known all along
Don't leave me [Am]hanging [Dm]on th[F]e
[G]telephone[Am][F][Am]
[F][Am][F][G]
[Am]
I had to interrupt [F]and stop
this conversation
Your voice [G]across the line
[Am]gives [Em]me a strange sensation
[Am]I'd [E]like[Am] to talk when I
[Dm]can show you my affection
Oh, I can't control myself
[Am]Oh, I can't cont[Dm]rol myself
[Am]Oh, I can'[Dm]t control myself
Oh -oh -oh -o[Em]h
[F]I can't keep w[G]aiting
Oh [Am]-oh -oh[F] -oh
Oh [Am]-oh -oh -oh
Oh said, cause [F]I can't
keep waiting on you
[Am]Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, [F]oh, [Am]oh, oh, o[F]h, o[Am]h, oh[F],[Am][F]
oh, [Am]oh,[F][Am]
[F]oh,[Am] oh, [F]oh, oh, oh,
You
