G
When I was just a boy
Em             D          C
By the phone, by the phone
G
My head was stuck in the clouds
Em              D               C
Feet would not touch the ground
            G
You didn't have to leave that way
       Em              D     C
Didn't have to leave that way
    G
Cuz I was just, just a boy
Em             D          C
By the phone, by the phone

C                      Em
I'm still holding on to all your promises
C                          Em       D
Why'd you tell me you were on your way back
C
I've been waiting so long
Em                          C
Days have come and they've gone
Don't leave me hanging

Chorus:
G                           Em
Call me back, call me back, call me back,
 D            C
call me back
      G                           Em
Baby call me back, call me back, call me back,
 D           C
call me back
           G
I've been waiting by the phone, love,
           Em              D       C
I've been waiting by the phone love
         G                           Em
So just call me back, call me back, call me back,
 D            C
call me back

You didn't have to be that way
Didn't have to be that way
'Cause I was just, just a boy
By the phone, by the phone

I've been holding on to all your promises
Why'd you tell me you were on your way back
I've been waiting so long
Days have come and they've gone
Don't leave me hanging
