Standard tuning

N.C.                              Eb I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall

Gm                             Eb

If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall

Gm                     Eb

I know he's there, but I just got to call

Eb             Cm   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Eb             Cm   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Gm                            Eb

I heard your mother now she's going out the door

Gm                    Eb

Did she go to work or just go to the store?

Gm                            Eb

All those things she said, I told you to ignore

Cm            Gm

Oh, why can't we talk again

Cm            Gm

Oh, why can't we talk again

Cm

Oh, why can't we talk again

Cm             Bb   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Cm             Bb   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

N.C.                              Eb It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long

Gm                            Eb

If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong

Gm                           Eb

I want to tell you something you've known all along

Eb             Cm   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

[Thought I'd better put the solo in since it absolutely rocks.]

N.C.                   Eb I had to interrupt and stop this conversation

Gm                               Eb

Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation

Gm                          Eb

I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection

Cm            Gm

Oh, I can't control myself

Cm            Gm

Oh, I can't control myself

Cm

Oh, I can't control myself

Cm             Bb   Gm

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Eb

Hang up and run to me

Gm         Eb

Woah, hang up and run to me

Gm         Eb

Woah, hang up and run to me

Gm         Eb

Woah, hang up and run to me

Gm            Eb

Woah oh oh oh oh run to me

Then the last part of the solo repeats once more -

...and thats it.
