CAPO: 3rd fret (sounds in key of Cm)
ch /ch ch /ch
The days are okay,
ch /ch ch /ch
I watch the TV in the afternoon,
ch /ch
If I get lonely, the sound of other voices,
Other rooms are near to me, I'm not afraid!
ch /ch ch /ch
The operator, she tells the time, it's good for a laugh,
ch /ch ch /ch
There's always radio,
And for a dime I can talk to God,
Dial a prayer! Are you there? Do you care? Are you there?
And in the win - ter ex - tra blankets for the cold,
Fix the heater, getting old, I am wiser now, you know,
And still as bigger fool con - cerning you!
ch /ch ch /ch
I met your friend, she's very nice, what can I--- say,
ch /ch ch /ch
It was an accident,
I never dreamed we'd meet a - gain this way,
You're looking well! I'm not afraid!
ch /ch ch /ch
You have a lovely home, just like a picture! No, I---- live alone!
ch /ch ch /ch
I found it easier!
You must remember how I never liked the party life,
Up all night! Lovely wife! You have a lovely wife!
And in the win - ter ex - tra blankets for the cold,
Fix the heater, getting old, you are with her now, I know,
I'll live a - lone forever, not together now----!
Oo---,oo - oo! Oo-------! Oo------! Oo-----!
