Operator chords - Jim Croce
G Bm Am7 C G
Operator, well could you help me place this call
Am7 D Em D
You see the number on the matchbook is old an faded
G Bm Am7 C G
She's living in L.A, With my best old ex friend Ray
Am7 D Em D
A guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated

CHORUS
G C G C D
Isn't that the way they say it goes, But let's forget all that
G Am
And give me the number if you can find it
C D Em Bm D Am7
So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show
D C G
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
Am7 C D
I only wish my words could just convince myself that it just wasn't real
C G Bm Am7 D G
But that's not the way it feels (2nd time No, no, no, no, that's not the way it feels)
G Bm Am7 C G
Operator, well could you help me place this call
Am7 D Em D
Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me
G Bm Am7 C G
There's something in my eyes, You know it happens every time
Am7 D Em D
I think about the love that I thought would save me
[REPEAT CHORUS]
G Bm Am7 C G
Operator, well let's forget about this call
Am7 D Em D
There's no one there, I really wanted to talk to
G Bm Am7 C G
Thank you for your time, Cause you've been so much more than kind
Am7 D Em D
You can keep the dime
[REPEAT CHORUS]
