Had our number changed today, although I
hated to.
E
But each time the phone would ring they'd
A
want to speak to you.
A
And it hurts to tell them you’re not here
D
with me.
A E A
Maybe now, oh, telephone, will let me be.
#2.
Gbm A
It's not in the book now, so you'd better
D
write it down.
E
Just in case your love for me should ever
A
come around.
You might want to call and break the news
D
to me.
A E A
Just call lonesome 7-7203.

I keep the telephone beside me all the time.
A E
Hoping you might want to call and say you've
A
changed your mind.

If you do then, darling, you know where I'll be.
A E A
I'm at lonesome 7-7203.

A D
You’re the only one I'm giving our new number to.

So, now, if the telephone should ring I'll know

it's you.

If you ever long for love that used to be.
