Man On The Line  by  Chris de Burgh


INTRO: E minorEm - C majorC - D MajorD   E minorEm - C majorC - D MajorD

     E minorEm           A minorAm     E minorEm
There's a man on the line, he is wasting my time,
      A minorAm         B7B7
He calls me every day, he's got nothing to say,
      E minorEm          A minorAm      E minorEm
And at the dead of night when I turn out the light,
  A minorAm          B7B7
The telephone rings, it's him again!


C majorC           D MajorD
I wouldn't mind if he told me,
C majorC              D MajorD
Just what the hell is going on,
C majorC         D MajorD
He like a man in a fever,
C majorC            D MajorD
I know that something is wrong,
           C majorC
He's whispering your name!

     E minorEm             A minorAm     E minorEm
There's a man on the line, and he is wasting my time,
      A minorAm        B7B7
He calls me everyday, and he won't go away,
   E minorEm           A minorAm     E minorEm
Is he part of a plan, is he a government man?
   A minorAm           B7B7
Well one thing is true, he's after you!


C majorC         D MajorD
He must be totally crazy,
C majorC           D MajorD
He must be out of his mind,
C majorC          D MajorD
To be in love with a lady,
C majorC           D MajorD
Ah, when that lady is mine,
         C majorC    D MajorD       C majorC
He's whispering your name, whispering your name,


[CHORUS:]
G+G  D MajorD  G+G  D MajorD
Tell me, tell me,
G+G         C majorC  D MajorD  C majorC D MajorD
How many men have seen this heaven,
G+G       C majorC D MajorD
How many down in flames,
G+G      C majorC  D MajorD    C majorC D MajorD
How many men are lost forever,
E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
How many still in chains?
         C majorC    D MajorD      FF  E minorEm - C majorC - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC - D MajorD - E minorEm
Just whispering your name, whispering your name...

     E minorEm               A minorAm     E minorEm
There's a man on the line and he's still wasting my time,
      A minorAm           B7B7
He calls me day after day and it's always the same,
      E minorEm            A minorAm      E minorEm
And at the dead of the night, when I turn out the light,
  A minorAm             B7B7
The telephone rings, yes, it's him again;


C majorC           D MajorD
He's got me deep in suspicion,
C majorC           D MajorD
He's got me looking at you,
C majorC          D MajorD
He like a man with a mission,
C majorC            D MajorD
Ah, tell me what did you do?
         C majorC     D MajorD      C majorC
He's whispering your name, whispering your name,


[CHORUS:]
G+G  D MajorD  G+G  D MajorD
Tell me, tell me,
G+G         C majorC  D MajorD  C majorC D MajorD
How many men have seen this heaven,
G+G       C majorC D MajorD
How many down in flames,
G+G      C majorC  D MajorD    C majorC D MajorD
How many men are lost forever,
E minorEm    C majorC    D MajorD
How many still in chains?
         C majorC    D MajorD       C majorC
Just whispering your name, whispering your name...


[OUTRO:]   (## Repeat and Fade to end ##)
       E minorEm        C majorC  D MajorD
Oh there's a man on the line
     E minorEm        C majorC  D MajorD
