[A] [N] I'm in [Eb] the Bumble, the one across [G] the hall
If you [Eb] don't answer, I'll just ring it on [G] the wall
I know [Eb] you're there, but I just had to call
You ain't [Bb] hanging on the [Gm] telephone
You [Eb] ain't [D] [Bb] hanging on the [Gm] telephone
I heard [Eb] your mother not going out [G] the door
Did she [Eb] go to work or just go to the [G] store?
All those [Eb] things she said I told you to ignore
[Cm] Oh, why can't we talk again?
[Gm] [Cm] Oh, why can't we talk [Gm] again?
Oh, [Cm] why can't we talk again?
You ain't [Dm] [Bb] hanging on the [Gm] telephone
You [Eb] ain't [Bb] hanging on the [G] telephone
It's [E] good to hear [Eb] your voice, you know it's been so [G] long
If I don't get [Eb] your calls, then everything goes [G] wrong
I want to tell [Eb] you something you've known all along
You ain't [D] [Bb] hanging on the [Gm] telephone
I [Eb]
[G] [Eb] [G] [Eb]
[Bb] [G]
[Eb] had to interrupt the silent [G] conversation
Your voice across [Eb] the line gives me a strange [G] sensation
I can [Eb] talk, but I can't show you my [F] affection
[Eb] Oh, I can't control myself
[Gm] Oh, [Cm] I can't control myself
[Gm] Oh, [Cm] I can't control myself
You ain't [Bb] hanging on the [G] telephone
