E-mail:

Tuning: Standard

Intro:
Gmaj7 Fmaj7 (x2)

Verse 1:
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
A little while ago I went and placed a call
Gmaj7 Fmaj7
To tell this girl I know that she could have it all
Cmaj7 Am F G
The wedding ring, the whole dumb thing I was willing to tie the knot
Fmaj7 Gmaj7
So I called her up, and this is the answer I got...
CHORUS:
G Am7
I'm so sorry you have just reached my answering machine
D7 G
I'm not in at present, I'm sure you know this whole routine
F C Bb G
Leave your name and number and I'll try to get back to you
F7 G
You have thirty seconds to talk to me before you're through

Post-chorus 1:
Bbmaj7 Eb
And I said, "Baby let's go get married! I need to know you're mine!
Cm7 Bbmaj7
I am hangin' on, I am hangin' on, I am hangin' on this line
Fm Bb Eb
And if I can leave one message before you go to bed
Cm7 F Gmaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7
I would say to you." [BEEP!] and the phone went dead

Verse 2:

So I stepped out to buy some dog food for the cat

Of course she called about three minutes after that

Will she be my wife and share my life, well of course you can write the plot

'Cause she called me up, and this is the answer she got -
(Chorus)
