Party Line 
Written by: Ray Davies

(Brinngnnggg Bringgg: Hello, who's that speaking, please?) 

G
I'm on a party line, 

Wonderin' all the time, 
D     C            G
Who's on the other end? 
G
Is she big, is she small? 
 
Is she a she at all? 
D     C            G
Who's on my party line? 


D            A              D
Wish I had a more direct connection. 
     D              A             D
This party line was here when I arrived. 
    A              C            D                 
And I'm not voting in the next election, 
A                C               Bm
If they don't do something about finding out 
                  F#          G
The person who is on my party line. 


G... (instumental for 8 bars)
D   C          G
I'm on a party line. 
G... (instumental for 8 bars)
D   C          G
I'm on a party line. 


D                 A           D     
I can't speak without an interception. 
D                A                 D
This is private, please get off my line. 
       A               C           D
Please tell me when I can have my privacy. 
    A                C                 Bm
I'd like to meet the girl who's always talking 
                  F#          G
When I'm speaking on my party line. 


[Instrumental break for one verse]

D            A              D
Wish I had a more direct connection. 
     D              A             D
This party line was here when I arrived. 
    A              C            D                 
And I'm not voting in the next election, 
A                C               Bm
If they don't do something about finding out 
                  F#          G
The person who is on my party line. 



G
I'm on a party line, 

Wonderin' all the time, 
D     C            G
Who's on the other end? 
G
Is she big, is she small? 
 
Is she a she at all? 
D     C            G
Who's on my party line? 
D     C            G
Who's on my party line? 
D     C            G
Who's on my party line?
