Don'€™t Call Me Up Lyrics

26th Jan 2013
CAPO: 3rd fret (sounds in key of F)
From Mick Jagger's solo album 'Goddess in the doorway'
I was trying to for - get you, but you won't tell me how,
Lately I'm finding it tricky, with your picture plastered all over town,
Friends pick you up in conver - sation, just to see how I'll re - act,
I get these in - ternal lacer - ations, that jack me up, and lay me out flat,
But I can't throw my life away, I can't give the game away,
And you just wandered off the stage, and left me dealing with the pain!
So don't call me up, when you wanna cry, 'cause I------ might let you down,
Don't call me up, on some rainy night, 'cause I------ might let you down,
Let you down! | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / | / / / / |
People ask, "Have you seen her?" I say, "Not... for a while,
I'm gonna see my girlfiend way down in Argen - tina,
We're gonna have a blast for a while!"
Well, I see you in my inner eye, touch me with a gentle smile,
Wondered if you'd catch my mood, can you feel my solitude?
Don't call me up, when you wanna cry, 'cause I------ might let you down,
And don't call me up,
(Might let you down!)
When some other guy hangs your heart - strings out to dry!
As the waves crash around, and the stars hit the ground,
I'll be out of my mind once a - gain,
As the rain lashes down, and the stars can't be found,
I will hold my head high, and just gaze at the sky,
I was under your spell, you took me to hell!
And don't call me up, if you wanna cry, 'cause I------ might let you down,
And don't call me up, if you want some lie,
(Might let you down!)
'Cause I---- might let you down,
Might let you down, (Might let you down!) Might let you down!
Might let you down-------, 'cause I might let you down-----, yeah,
Yeah! I was trying, I was trying to for - get you,
Yeah, but you won't tell me how, (Won't tell me how!)
Now you're out all over town,
Ah, ah--- you're plastered all----- over town! (All over town!)
