  			 G    Bm                 C                  G 
   Operator oh could you help me place this call 
 Am                          D                    Em   D  
   You see the number on the matchbook is old and faded 
G                    Bm         C        Am7       G      
   He's living in L.A. with my best old ex-friend Ray 
Am                   D7                      Em    D   
   A girl he said he knew well and sometimes hated 

G                 C               G 
   Isn't that the way they say it goes 
              C       D 
 But let's forget all that 
     G                     Am 
 And give me the number if you can find it 
    C G   Am           Em           Bm          Am 
 So I can call just to tell him I'm fine and to show 
 D                      C                           Em 
    I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well 
                Am                          C 
 I only wish my words could just convince myself 
                     D         C                     G 
 That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels 

G Bm C G 

 G     Bm              C                  G    
    Operator could you help me place this call 
Am                        D7                   Em     D 
   Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me 
 G                       Bm                C             G  
 There's something in my eyes, you know it happens every time 
 Am                  D7                        Em     D C Em D 
   I think about the love that I thought would save me 

G                     C               G 
   But isn't that the way they say it goes 
              C       D 
 But let's forget all that 
     G                     Am 
 And give me the number if you can find it 
    C G   D            Em           Bm          Am 
 So I can call just to tell him I'm fine and to show 
 D                      C                           Em 
    I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well 
                Am                          C 
 I only wish my words could just convince myself 
                     D         C                     G 
 That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels 

Am       D    C                     G 
   No no no   that's not the way it feels 

  G    Bm                  C              G 
    Operator well let's forget about this call 
  Am                       D7                 Em    D  
    There's no one there I really wanted to talk  t o 
  G                    Bm 
    Thank you for your time 
                    C                 G 
  Ah you've been so much more than kind 
  Am                 D7    Em D C B A G 
    You can keep the dime 
G                     C               G 
   But isn't that the way they say it goes 
              C       D
