Verse: G# While I down Kentucky bourbon C# I am waiting for a call D# And the moon and stars tonight G# Are playing shadows on the wall G# With the moon the way it is, dear C# Would you answer out of spite D# G# Or are you feeling lonely tonight G# Cause I remember last time C# We were out under the stars D# Driving crooked down the highway G# Drinking beer in roadside bars G# And now and then I wonder C# Why this painful memory D# G# Can never find its way to you from me Chorus: G# And I canʼt dial the phone just now C# Even though I know your number D# G# Canʼt bring my broken heart to be untrue G# Like you did today C# Youʼll say goodbye the same old way D# Ever since you hung up on me G# Iʼm hung up on you Verse: Well the house Iʼm ringing up from Is a half a mile from you But with the reception Iʼm getting Might as well be Timbuktu And behind the door of your home Is a strange and foreign land Where you speak a language I donʼt understand Chorus. Verse: Now Iʼm going down to Jimmyʼs bar Like a thousand other times With an appetite for poison And a suitcase full of dimes And Iʼll wait there by the payphone With one hundred other guys With those sorry hung-up teardrops in our eyes Chorus.
