Isn't that the way they say it goes
C D
But let's forget all that
G Am
And give me the number if you can find it
C D Em Bm D Am
So I can call just to tell her I'm fine and to show

I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
Am C
I only wish my words could just convince myself

That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels
G Bm C C - C/B - C/A - G
Operator, oh could you help me place this call

There's no one there I really wanted to talk to

Thank you for your time, cause you've been so much more than kind

You can keep the dime

I think this is very good , but I wonder if that Am/A# isn't just a Bm, I though it might be B7 for a while. I do think B sounds better than A# in the bass, not sure whats on the record.
