G
Telephone, but I can't dial it

Hands are shakin'
                      D
I'll have to file it away

What I was wantin' to say
G 
I love you, you'd think I could say it

Though it's true
                         D
I can't even pray it at night

Just never comes out right
                      C 
But when I sing about you
                  G
Every word is at my command
                  D
My guitar comes alive in my hand
                   G
When I sing about you

                   C
When I sing about you
                     G
Every note seems to be right on key
                      D
Oh, it all sounds so right to me
                   G
When I sing about you

G
I wrote it down, but I can't send it
                                          D
It's all wrong, so I'll have to mend it again

How many times has it been?

G
I love you, think I could show it
                                            D
Though it's true, you'll never know that I care

It really doesn't seem fair

                       C
But when I sing about you
                  G
Every word is at my command
                  D
My guitar comes alive in my hand
                   G
When I sing about you

               C
When I sing about you
                     G
Every note seems to be right on key
                      D
Oh, it all sounds so right to me
                   G
When I sing about you
                      D 
Oh, it all sounds so right to me
                   G
When I sing about you
