A                                A6      A7        D
1. I was sitting by the phone I was waiting all alone 
   Baby by myself I sit
                       A
   And wait and wonder about you
   It’s a dark and dreary night
              A6        A7         D
   Seems like nothing’s going right 
   Won’t you tell me honey
                           A
   How can I go on here without you?
   
           E
   Yes I’m down and feeling blue
                            E7
   And I don’t know what to do, oh - oh

   A                                   E
R: Ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
                   E7                     A
   Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
                                           E
   Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
         Hmi
   And I sit all alone impatiently
   Won’t you please understand the need in me
   D  E           E7                      A
   So ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
   D  E           E7                      A
   So ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?

2. You were here and now you’re gone
   Hey did I do something wrong?
   I just can’t believe
   That I could be so badly mistaken
   Was it me or was it you?
   Tell me are we really through? 
   Won’t you hear me cry and you
   Will know that my heart is breaking
   
   Please forgive and then forget
   Or maybe darling better yet oh - oh

R: Ring, ring...
   
           E            E7                       A
   Oh - oh  ring, ring,  why don’t you give me a  call?
   So  ring, ring,  why don’t you give me a  call?
   Oh - oh  ring, ring,  why don’t you give me a  call?
