B5    D5        E5
Suzy, where are you?
E5                    D5               B5
I was living just for loving just from you
B5        D5             E5
Suzy, you used to lay me down
        E5          D5                   B5
But the ragged wind blows me through the town

A                           G       E
In and out the pubs with my cigarette,
   A                             G         E
My face don't receive me till my back gets wet
     A                  G       E
Have all my dreams come down to this?

E             D          B      E                 D    B
Standing by a silent telephone, me and baker lite all alone

        B5             D5          E5
Now the city seems to be a hive of bees
  E5             D5            B5
I lost my chance dancing on my knees
    B5              D5           E5
The cops are making me look all around,
       E5               D5       B5
But my legs will always beat the ground


A                             G                  E
After we've packed up and the boys have all gone home,
   A                           G          E
My brain's still racing but my body's all alone.
     A                  G       E
Have all my dreams come down to this?

E             D          B
Standing by a silent telephone, 
E                 D   E
Me and baker lite all alone 


B5    D5        E5
Suzy, where are you?
      E5              D5               B5
I was living just for loving just from you
B5        D5                 E5
Suzy, you think I'm stepping out
        E5         D5                  B5
But one look at my face will kill your doubts


A                             G           E
Midnight on the clock and the door didn't knock,
    A                          G           E
The dawn begins to sing but my phone don't ring.
     A                  G       E
Have all my dreams come down to this?

E             D          B      E                 D   E   
Standing by a silent telephone, me and baker lite all alone
E             D          B      E                 D   E   
Standing by a silent telephone, me and baker lite all alone
