Verse: F# While I down Kentucky bourbon B I am waiting for a call C# And the moon and stars tonight F# Are playing shadows on the wall F# With the moon the way it is, dear B Would you answer out of spite C# F# Or are you feeling lonely tonight F# Cause I remember last time B We were out under the stars C# Driving crooked down the highway F# Drinking beer in roadside bars F# And now and then I wonder B Why this painful memory C# F# Can never find its way to you from me Chorus: F# And I canʼt dial the phone just now B Even though I know your number C# F# Canʼt bring my broken heart to be untrue F# Like you did today B Youʼll say goodbye the same old way C# Ever since you hung up on me F# 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.
