[Refrão]
 
C                          Dm 
Just a phone call from the place you once lived 
                  Eb                        Bb 
Where we're still waiting for the sleet and rain to give 
C                     Dm 
It's just a line from you're old town 
                  Eb                         C 
Where we're still drinking to the times when you were around

F  Gm  Am  Bb  x2 
 


[Verso 3]
 
F            Gm       Am             Bb 
Days were we gave you good times and more 
F                 Gm             Am             Bb 
Enough for you to break down and call this town yours, you gave us 
F            Gm         Am     Bb 
Remedies for everything shitty 
F         Gm         Am      Bb 
Back when girls were pretty, yeah this is 
 


[Refrão]
 
C                       Dm 
Just a letter from this house you once blessed 
                Eb                         Bb 
Where I'm still waiting for the forwarding address 
C                    Dm 
Just a note from the past we once shared 
                Eb                            C 
Where I'm still waiting on a present from the future to get me there

[Refrão]
 
C                          Dm 
I know your new town is so far away 
             Eb                             Bb 
That I could maybe come and visit but could never stay 
C                           Dm 
It's just me calling from a town so far 
              Eb                           C 
And I'm still waiting on directions to wherever you are 
 


[Verso 4]
 
F            Gm       Am        Bb 
Times were I wouldn't hold your arm 
    F               Gm        Am    Bb 
For fear of letting go of the other one 
F       Gm     Am       Bb 
Fears I had to kiss you 
        F           Gm      Am       Bb 
With my eyes closed I might miss you if you 
F         Gm         Am           Bb 
Looked at me in some way I hadn't seen, if you 
F       Gm            Am           Bb 
Took my words in some way I didn't mean 
        F            Gm            Am    Bb 
If your smile showed signs of some inner frown 
   F                   Gm            Am    Bb 
Of thoughts of packing up and moving on to some new town 
F     Gm   Am   Bb 
                Some new town 
F     Gm   Am   Bb 
                Some new town 
F     Gm   Am   Bb 

F     Gm   Am   Bb
