[Verse]
         C           
When you get a chance
                           F     
Would you please call your mother
C                                        G   D G
And thank her for the good years that we had ■ ■
C                                    F      
Gently break the news that you don't love me
C                G                        C  
And give my best regards to your good old dad
  C                       
I always liked your family
F                           
We got along just splendidly
            C      
Though your brother
                            G  
Kind of rubbed me the wrong way
  C                                   
I remember that your eyes turned green
          F                               
When they crowned your sister County Queen
C                                
Though she couldn't hold a candle
        G          C  
To your beauty any day


[Chorus]
         C           
When you get a chance
                           F     
Would you please call your mother
C                                        G   D G
And thank her for the good years that we had ■ ■
C                                    F      
Gently break the news that you don't love me
C                G                        C  
And give my best regards to your good old dad

[Verse]
C                                
Back when we could laugh and play
F                    
On family reunion day
C                       
Didn't we all look funny
                       G      
In our nineteen fiftys clothes
C                                
Your daddy wore that greasy stuff
F                                  
Your brother drank more than enough
C                          
Your mom wore penny loafers
G                   C   
With runners in her hose


[Chorus]
Am7      C           
When you get a chance
                      F          
Would you please call your mother
C                                        G   D G
And thank her for the good years that we had ■ ■
C                                      F      
O gently break the news that you don't love me
C                G                        C  
And give my best regards to your good old dad
         C           
When you get a chance
                           F     
Would you please call your mother
C                G                        C  
And give my best regards to your good old dad
