E A
It's lonely out tonight down here in Georgia
E B7
And the oldest friend I've got I met today
E A
The woman that I love just up and left me
E B7 E
And the place I love a thousand miles away
A
Operator hook me up to Houston
E B7
Get me anybody on the phone
E A
Look there in your book and pick a number
E B7 E
Cause you can't be choosy when you're this alone
A E
Won't you talk to me Texas let me hear that draw
A B7
I spent my last five dollars on this one long distance call
E A
Won't you talk to me Texas I got these homesick blues
E B7 E
Tell me I can come on home to you
A
I got this faded number in my wallet
E B7
It's been in here a dozen years I know
E A
I used to call it up when I was lonely
E B7 E
Lord that women sure could love me so
A
I know by now she's probably changed her number
E B7
And with my luck she's probably changed her name
E A
If there's a chance in hell I think I'll take it
E B7 E
Cause I'd love to hear that woman's voice again
repeat #3 x2
B7 E
Hey tell me I can come on home to you
