Chords with lyrics
G+G
I put a nickel in the telephone
C majorC
To find out dear if you'd be home
D7D7 G+G
I wasted a nickel last night
I guess I've wished a million times
C majorC
It hadn't been a party line
D7D7 G+G
I wasted a nickel last night
C majorC
I heard you tell a friend of mine
G+G
That I was not the one
A7A7
Why did you play me for a fool
D7D7
So you could have your fun
G+G
If I had known it from the start
C majorC
It might have saved a broken heart
D7D7 G+G
The nickel I wasted last night
I lost a nickel but I lost much more
C majorC
It seems I hear it o'er and o'er
D7D7 G+G
I wasted a nickel last night
My castles have all fallen down
C majorC
I saw them tumble to the ground
D7D7 G+G
A augmentedA nickel changed it all last night
C majorC
But someday when your world gets lonely
G+G
And your friends are few
A7A7
The door of love is open dear
D7D7
I'm waiting here for you
G+G
A augmentedA nickel has it's story told
C majorC
Of love not worth its weight in gold
D7D7 G+G
I wasted a nickel last night
