D5 down to A5 , 
with the speed of a hammer-on}

{intro} 
 

G5         A5                 D5     
   Well I don't have much to say 
G5              A5            D5     
   Thought I'd call you up anyway 
G5          A5                  D5     B5            E5     
   Just to try and tell you the way that I feel today 
      F5             C5 
Oh, I miss you baby 
 
Well, I sure am on the road 

I don't need to say much more 

I'm just the same old well known stranger that I was before 

Seems like yesterday now 
 

G5   A5          D5       
   Daddy's all gone 
G5            A5      D5       
   He's just halfway home 
G5           A5               D5      B5          E5      
   But he's hanging on to the telephone, singing please 
      F5               C5 
Don't let the show go on 
A5  G5  C5  D5 
{instrumental, double time from the other chords} 
 
There's a bus every other hour 
Even a midnight train 
But that don't leave me the power to see your face again 
It's not that simple anymore 
 
See there's a room full of smiling faces 
There's a man standing by the door 
He says its time we change our places and get down on the floor 
I'd like to kill him baby oh oh no now 
 
Daddy's all gone 
He's just halfway home 
He's hanging on to the microphone, singing please 
Don't let the show go on
