This circus is falling down on its knees
D#m F# C# A#m7
The big top is crumbling down
D#m B C# A#m7
Itʼs raining in Baltimore fifty miles east
D#m B C# A#m7
Where you should be, no oneʼs around

I need a phone call
B F#
I need a raincoat
B F#
I need a big love
B F#
I need a phone call
These train conversations are passing me by
And I donʼt have nothing to say
You get what you pay for
But I just had no intention of living this way
I need a phone call
I need a plane ride
I need a sunburn
I need a raincoat
C# B
And I get no answers
C# B
And I donʼt get no change
C# B F#
Itʼs raining in Baltimore, baby
C# F# C#
But everything else is the same
Thereʼs things I remember and things I forget
I miss you I guess that I should
Three thousand five hundred miles away
But what would you change if you could?
I need a phone call Maybe I should buy a new car
I can always hear a freight train If I listen real hard
And I wish it was a small world
Because Iʼm lonely for the big towns
Iʼd like to hear a little guitar
I think itʼs time to put the top down
I need a phone call
I need a raincoat
