Why Don't That Telephone Ring chords by Tracy Byrd

Bb
I had the operator call me back
                                        Bb
(Ebm6/Bb) She said my phone was working fine
I hear in Louisville it's almost dawn
                                   Bb
(Emb6/Bb) But, it's 2 a.m. Pacific time
Eb
I thought sure she would've called by now
F
To tell me all about
Gm               F        Eb
That wild and cr azy L.A. scene
        Bb
Well, I know my number's in the book

Longing for her long distance call
              Ebm7     Cm7        Dm7

She always had this distant dream
                                 Bb
