C (x32010@1)                C2Hey (x32030@1)its me, what a big surprise,
C (x32010@1)                   C2 (x32030@1)                 G (320003@1)  Gsus4G
Calling you up from a restaurant round the bend
C (x32010@1)              C2Just (x32030@1)got in from way up north
C (x32010@1)                   C2 (x32030@1)              G (320003@1)    Gsus4G
Aching and tired now, and I could use a friend
           bm                     C (x32010@1)             d (xx0231@1)   D2d
Might be a fool to think that you do wanna see me again


Verse 2:

I know its been a while since I talked to you
Nothing wrong, it's just nothing ever goes as planned
Many times I thought I'd call
Didn't have your number in my hand
I know its true, you'd never do the same thing to me

Chorus:

d (xx0231@1)     D2 (x43141@2)              G (320003@1) Gsus4G
I never meant to make you cry
             Gsus4 (3x0013@1)G (320003@1)       C (x32010@1)  C2C
And though I know I shouldn't call
        C2 (x32030@1)       C (x32010@1)    AmIt (x02210@1)just reminds us of the cost
                        dOh, (xx0231@1)of everything we've lost
                  G (320003@1)  Gsus4G
Bad timing that's all.
          Gsus4 (3x0013@1)              G (320003@1) Gsus4G
And maybe soon there'll come a day
             Gsus4 (3x0013@1)    C (x32010@1)  C2C
When no more tears will fall
        C2 (x32030@1)             AmWe (x02210@1)each forgive a little bit,
                          dThen (xx0231@1)we both look back on it
                          G (320003@1)  Gsus4G
As just bad timing that's all.

(Instrumental verse)

Verse 3:
Used to have so many plans
Something always seemed to turn out wrong.
Never could catch up to you
Many on and doing all you've done
I don't know why, the harder I try, the harder it comes

(chorus)

(Outro: same as intro)
