C  G7   C    G7     Am   G  F
Operator, number please, it's been so many years
 C    G7   C   G7    Am   G     F
She’ll remember my old voice
while I fight the tears?
 C     A   Dm    G7    C    A   Dm
It’s been twenty years or more now
Martha please recall

And meet me out for coffee, where we’ll talk about it all

And Martha, all I had was you, and all you had was me
 C       F      C          F

And we saved them for a rainy day

C   G7    C  G7     Am     G   F
I feel so much older now, oh and you're much older too
 C     G7    C     G7
How's the husband
how's the kids?
       Am   G    F
You know that I got married too

But Martha
Martha
I loved you can’t you see

And Martha, all I had was you, and all you had was me
 C       F      C          F
There was no tomorrow
we packed away all our sorrows
            C    Dm F  C
And we saved them for a rainy day
 C         F    C      F
Those were days of roses
poetry and prose
          C    F    Dm    F   C
And Martha, all I had was you, and all you had was me
