To be clear, this is supposed to be an alternative key with chords that's easier on the ukulele. 
For those of you who want the same key as on the album, just put a capo on the third fret. 



[Intro]: C G Am F

 C                                   G
Next to your chest like a locket, or on vibrate in your pocket
        Am                                         F
You've got it in your hand everywhere you go, up close to your mouth when your voice is low
           C                              G
You freak out if I ever get busted, buy another me no matter what the cost is
         Am                                 F
We're inseparable, disconnectable, without me you never go too far

C                       G
I just wanna be your telephone, keep me on
  Am                                        F
Twenty-four seven, three sixty-five days, think about all the time we could waste
C                       G
I just wanna be your telephone, never let me go
Am                                         F
I know every dirty secret that you keep, crazy ass shit that no one sees
C G  Am F  C G   Am F
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

 C                                           G
Never would have to be jealous, when you're talking to all of those fellas
      Am                                                F
Cause I'm the only one that's ever gonna be, so well acquainted with your anatomy
         C                         G
Like a shoulder to cry on, I'm the one thing you rely on
              Am                   F
It's like a drug, I'm so in love, never let anyone break us up

C                       G
I just wanna be your telephone, keep me on
  Am                                        F
Twenty-four seven, three sixty-five days, think about all the time we could waste
C                       G
I just wanna be your telephone, never let me go
Am                                         F
I know every dirty secret that you keep, crazy ass shit that no one sees
C G  Am F  C G   Am F
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

    Dm                    F                           C                 G
So here comes the comma, guess I better sum up, I'll never be what you need
       Dm                 G
Cause you love that toy, more than this boy

          C                                  G
Charge me up, turn me on, I love it when you use me all night long
