Telephone Romeo

The song is in the key of A

Intro and bridge
A     E     F#m     D     A     E   
  D (step down to A) A
A     E     F#m     D     A    

 E     D

             A          E         
We kept our parting connected by 
   F#m              A
the same stretch of road
     D            A               
And I?m tired of packing round 
   E
this heavy load
     F#m           A              
It started out a stream but then 
    E      A
the levee fell
          D          A            
When the rain maker had some extra
   E
 seed to sell

Well I just thought id call and se 
what?s going on
Continues after the ad
Did the hill country flatten out 
since I?ve been gone
Are the fields all painted up in red
 and blue
Are you thinking of me the times I?m
 thinking of you

(Chorus)
                    D              
Well I just wanna drink ?til I?m 
    A
not thirsty
                   E               
And I just wanna sleep ?til I?m not
  A
 tired
               D                   
I just wanna drive till I run out 
    A   A/F#   E
of money
F#m                  A    E         
             (Bridge)
I don?t wanna be no Romeo on the 
telephone wire

Could we dream up a reason for a 
rendezvous
Well the yanks are in town and we 
got nothing to do
The neighbors are gone and you?re 
feeling alone
You can?t kiss somebody on the 
telephone

Well did you go out last night and 
was it just a friend
Would you care if I showed up there 
at 6 AM
And drive all day with the top 
pulled down
We could stay in all night or we 
could paint the town

(Chorus)

I guess I?d better go now its 
getting too late
There?s a party downstairs and I 
thought I heard something break
I bid you goodnight and hope to see 
you soon
Maybe later on this afternoon

(Chorus)
