The Call
G D7
It's a long distance phone and I feel so alone here without him
It's a crime and a shame I ain't got the change
G
And don't you know that I'm worried about him
D7
I've been all over town every street up and down looking for the man
It's just a face in the crowd where the traffic roars loud
G
But don't you know he'd be proud to give a helping hand
D7
Mister can you find it in your heart to lend me a dollar
For the times have been slow I'm fresh outta dough
G
And I ain't got the money to call him
I threw my pride out the door
D7
Cause I've been turned down before but I'll keep trying
This type of pain is kind of hard to explain
G
But the feeling's the same as like dying
repeat #3
You put the change in my hand you're the world's kindest man
D7
And I thank you sir you'll never know what you've done
G
For this poor mother's son a thirsty man just got a cold cup of water
repeat #3 x2
