album Dan Seals Greatest Hits 1991
Written by Cheryl Wheeler

Sad to lose Dan at such a young age,
cancer is such a scourge of mankind.

Capo 1st fret.

INTRO:  E   A   D   E   A   D

Verse
E                              A                       D
 She says she hates to sleep alone, but she'll do it tonight.
E                       A                                D
 She wants to grab her telephone, but she knows it ain't right.
               G              C
So if he won't call, she'll survive,
                F               Am
And if he don't care, she'll get by.
Am/G       D/F#          G         C G D
Climb into bed, bury her head, and cry.

Verse

E                          A                     D
 From the beginning he was all anyone could have been.
E                          A                         D
 They were delirious with love; they were certain to win.
                  G               C
Now he's breaking plans more and more, and he's leaving
F             Am
notes on her door.
       Am/G        D/F#                         G
Took a trip out of town, couldn't turn this one down;
            C                   G        D
He said, I guess I should have told you before.

Chorus

E                              Am         Am7/G      D/F#
She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing,
                         G                           C
Always sitting, waiting, wondering if the phone will ring,
                             Am           Am/G       D/F#
She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string,
                             Em   D G
It hurts to feel like such a fool.

Bridge

G              E             Am           Am7/G   D/F#
She wants to tell him not to call or come around again,
                           G                          C
He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him.
                           Am               Am/G     D/F#
She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in,
                                Em   D  C  D
And she don't know which way to move.

Verse

E                                   A               D
 She wants to be fair; she couldn't say he was ever unkind,
E                               A                            D
 But if she could bear to walk away, she thinks he wouldn't mind
                     G           C                        F
'Cause he just keeps himself so apart and there's no one else
       Am
in her heart,
         Am/G     D/F#                   G        C      G    D
So she's taking a dive from an emotional high and coming down hard.

Chorus

E                             Am         Am7/G       D/F#
She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing,
                         G                           C
Always sitting, waiting, wondering if the phone will ring,
                             Am           Am/G       D/F#
She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string,
                             Em         D
It hurts to feel like such a fool.      Woh-ooh-oh!

Bridge

G            E               Am          Am7/G   D/F#
She wants to tell him not to call or come around again,
                           G                          C
He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him.
                           Am               Am/G     D/F#
She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in,
                                Em   D G
And she don't know which way to move.

                         G                           C
Always sitting, waiting, wondering if the phone will ring,
                             Am           Am/G       D/F#
She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string,
                             Em   D
It hurts to feel like such a fool.
C               D                  Em        D
  And she don't know which way to move.     Woh-ooh-oh!
C             D                 Em    D  G
  It hurts to feel like such a fool.
