[Verse]
Bm                C                      G   
Operator oh could you help me place this call
Am                   G                        Em7  
■  See the number on the matchbook is old and faded
Em    G D G           Bm
She's ■ ■ ■ living in LA
                 Bm7      G  
With my best old exfriend Ray
Am              D                           Em7   Em D
■  Guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated ■  ■
G                  C               G   
But isn't that the way they say it goes
           C          D   
Well let's forget all that
G                      Am                
And give me the number if you can find it
D        Em           Bm           D   
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine


[Chorus]
       Am   D                 C   
And to show I've overcome the blow
                        Bm7 
I've learned to take it well
               Am                        C     
I only wish my words could just convince myself
                    D   
That it just wasn't real
C                         G     Bm7 Am7
But that's not the way it feels ■   ■  


[Verse]
G Bm                    C                  G   
■ Operator oh could you help me place this call
       Am                  D                    Em      D
'cause ■  I can't read the number that you just gave me ■
D7 G                       Bm  
■  There's something in my eyes
            C       Bm    G   
You know it happens every time
Am              D                         Em      D
I think about a love that I thought would save me ■


[Chorus]
Bm G                  C               G   
■  But isn't that the way they say it goes
           C          D   
Well let's forget all that
G                         Am             
And give me the number if you can find it
C        Em           Bm   Em      D   
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
       Am   D                 C   
And to show I've overcome the blow
                        Bm7 
I've learned to take it well
               Am7              Am       C     
I only wish my words could just convince myself
                    D   
That it just wasn't real
C                         G     C        G 
But that's not the way it feels no no no no
C                     G    
That's not the way it feels
Bm                       Am         G   
Operator oh let's forget about this call
        Am        D       D7     Em7               D7
There's ■  no one there I really wanted to talk to ■ 


[Bridge]
G                    Bm  
■ Thank you for your time
               C       Am        G   
Ah you've been so much more than kind
Am                  D    Em7
■  You can keep the dime ■  


[Chorus]
D C G                  C               G   
■ ■ But isn't that the way they say it goes
           C          D   
Well let's forget all that
G                      Am                
And give me the number if you can find it
         Em           Bm               
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
       Am7  D                 C   
And to show I've overcome the blow
     C                      
I've learned to take it well
  Bm              Am          Am7           C     
I ■  only wish my words could just convince myself
                    D   
That it just wasn't real
C                              
But that's not the way it feels
