Hanging On The Telephone by Blondie

Standard tuning


N.C.                              Eb (x43121@3)I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
Gm (355333@1)                           Eb (x43121@3)If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
Gm (355333@1)                   Eb (x43121@3)             
I know he's there, but I just got to call
               Eb (x43121@3)           Cm (x3101x@1) Gm (355333@1)Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
               Eb (x43121@3)           Cm (x3101x@1) Gm (355333@1)Don't leave me hanging on the telephone


Gm (355333@1)                          EbI (x43121@3)heard your mother now she's going out the door
Gm (355333@1)                  EbDid (x43121@3)she go to work or just go to the store?
Gm (355333@1)                          EbAll (x43121@3)those things she said, I told you to ignore
                 Cm (x3101x@1)          Gm (355333@1)    
Oh, why can't we talk again
                 Cm (x3101x@1)          Gm (355333@1)    
Oh, why can't we talk again

N.C.                              Eb (x43121@3)It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
Gm (355333@1)                          Eb (x43121@3)If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
Gm (355333@1)                         Eb (x43121@3)I want to tell you something you've known all along
               Eb (x43121@3)           Cm (x3101x@1) Gm (355333@1)Don't leave me hanging on the telephone


[Thought I'd better put the solo in since it absolutely rocks.]

N.C.                   Eb (x43121@3)I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Gm (355333@1)                             Eb (x43121@3)Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
Gm (355333@1)                        Eb (x43121@3)I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection
               Cm (x3101x@1)          Gm (355333@1)    
Oh, I can't control myself
               Cm (x3101x@1)          Gm (355333@1)    
Oh, I can't control myself

     Eb (x43121@3)Hang up and run to me
Gm (355333@1)       Eb (x43121@3)Woah, hang up and run to me
Gm (355333@1)       Eb (x43121@3)Woah, hang up and run to me
Gm (355333@1)       Eb (x43121@3)Woah, hang up and run to me
Gm (355333@1)          Eb (x43121@3)Woah oh oh oh oh run to me


Then the last part of the solo repeats once more -
