                                 D                  F#m
I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
                                D                  F#m
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
                           D
I know she's there, but I just had to call

Chorus:
                               E   F#m
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
                D              E   F#m
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone!

I heard your mother now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore

                 Bm       F#m
Oh why can't we talk again?
                 Bm       F#m
Oh why can't we talk again?
                 Bm
Oh why can't we talk again?

Chorus

It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along

Chorus:
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection

Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself

Chorus:
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

     D                F#m
Hang up and run to me! Oh!
     D                F#m
Hang up and run to me! Oh!
     D
Hang up and run to me!
