[Intro]
N.C.
(Accapela) 853-5937, Angela can’t make it to the phone
N.C.
If your care to leave your name and number, She’ll give you a ring when she is home
 
[Verse]
G                      D                  G                       Bm
Everytime I called her I got the message, I listened to the voice coming down the line
G                     D               G               Bm
I couldn’t speak to a tape recording, I redialed it a number of times
 
[Chorus]
D         Em     D             Em                    D                          Em   F#m G   A
8 5 3 - 5 9 3 7, Ange-la can’t make it to the phone, If your care to leave your name and num-ber
D                    Em    F#m G   A        Em   F#m G A                Bm
Please speak clearly after the tone, She’ll give you a ring when she is home
 
[Verse]
G                       D              G                    Bm
I rang her this morning so very early, The same old message came down the phone
G                          D               G                  Bm
I should go and see if her house is empty, Maybe she’s poorly perhaps she’s not home
 
[Chorus]
D         Em     D             Em                    D                          Em   F#m G   A
8 5 3 - 5 9 3 7, Ange-la can’t make it to the phone, If your care to leave your name and num-ber
D                    Em    F#m G   A        Em   F#m G A                Bm
Please speak clearly after the tone, She’ll give you a ring when she is home

(Key Change-F)       She’s in Mill Hill   I’m in Bermond-sey, It’s the end of the earth on the northern line
Bb             F        C     Bb                  F            C     G    A    D   Em   D   Em
It makes it so hard for me to see, The one that I love but can never find   (Key Change-G SOLO)

G                              D                   G                 Bm
I called up a close friend who lives right by her, I got the message he was out too
G                    D              G                         Bm
I was suspicious are they together, I’ve got to find out that this isn’t true
