Intro: G C G C G

G C G

I called her up to say I'm sorry, I just can't have lunch today

G G/F# Em D C

Cause the boss just called and he's flying in from L.A.

G

And as the phone rang, I remembered the time

C G

How simple things used to be

G G/F# Em D C

Then her voice came on the line, not her, but the answer machine

Chorus

C D Em D C

She said, "I'm sorry, I can't take your call, cause I'm packing up to go away

G C Am D

And John, if that's you're just cancellin' lunch anyway

Em C G C

Ah you used to find the time, but now you don't even try

G C D G D C

So at the sound of the tone you're on your own...goodbye.

I ran down to the street and I caught a cab, God I had to get back home

But the house was empty, except for the code-a-phone

And as the tears came, I remembered the time, how happy we used to be

And I'll never forget the last words she ever said to me

Chorus

Em C G C

She said you used to find the time, but now you don't even try

So at the sound of the tone, you're on your own.......goodbye
