Verse 1:

      B5                         C5   B5
      I just got out my little red book
                                       C5  B5    C5  B5
      The minute that you said goodbye
                                         C5   B5
      I thumbed right through my little red book
                                   C5   B5
      I wasn't gonna sit and cry
                      E5    F5
      And I went from A to Z
                              E5
      I took out every pretty girl in town
             F5         G5
      They danced with me  and as I held them

Chorus:
      C5              F5
      All I did was talk about you
      C5                  F5
      Hear your name and I'd start to cry
      C5                F5           B5          A5
      There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

Verse 2:

      There ain't no girl in my little red book

      Who could ever replace your charms

      And each girl in my little red book

      Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of

      Oh won't you please come back

      Without your precious love I can't go on

      Where can love be   I need you so much

repeat chorus

Verse 3:

      (lead guitar (as per intro, doubled w/scat vocal, 2X) replaces first four lines)

      Oh won't you please come back

      Without your precious love I can't go on

      It's haunting me   I need you so much

Chorus 3:
      C5              F5
      All I did was talk and talk about you
      C5                  F5
      Hear your name and I'd start to cry
      C5               F5             B5
      There's just no getting over you
      C5              F5
      All I did was talk and talk about you
      C5                  F5
      Hear your name and I'd start to cry
      C5               F5             B5        A5
      There's just no getting over you... oh no
