[Intro]
C, Cb6/E, C, Gm6

[Verse 1]
C                       Am
You and I were meant to be
(Am)                       G
Even though you don't know me
(G)                     F
I don't even know your name
(F)                            E   E7
And do you think that you know mine?
C                       Am
You were lonely, I was bored
(Am)                          F
I may be more than you can afford
(F)                          E   E7
But I'm sure we'll meet halfway

[Pre-Chorus]
    G    G7             F
And I've got this crazy feeling
                      Am   G   Dadd9/F#  D7
you've been trying to get  to  me
     Fm7
When all you have to do is calmly

[Chorus]
C       Cb6/E  C        Gm6
Call me        call me

[Verse 2]
Basic service: sixty bucks
I'll roll the dice, you try your luck
A pair gets me a week in rent
And a straight gets even more
I'm no good at playing cards
I hold my dates in high regard
Pay up front and ye shall receive

[Bridge]
              G
Love is never in-between
            C
if it isn't one thing, then
                       Am
it's always something else
F                 G
I don't even know what I mean
                      C
I thought that it was nothing, but now I
                   F
can't find nothing else
Am  G                Dadd9/F#  D7  Fm7
Oh,    you can't hide
       G7
But at least you tried to

[Chorus]
Call me, call me, call me

[Coda]
Are you ashamed of what you've done?
All we did was have some fun
I won't judge and I won't tell
And I'll forget you when you've gone
I pity all you working stiffs,
Living wondering "what if?"
"What if someday I was free?"

[Chorus]
Call me, call me

[Coda]
C, Cb6/E, C, Gm6, C (x2)

[End on C]
