   Cadd9                     G
She left without leaving a number,
         Cadd9                G
Said she needed to clear her mind.
    Cadd9         D            Em7
He figured she'd gone back to Austin,
           Cadd9                    D
'Cause she talked about it all the time.
G/B            Cadd9            D
It was almost a year, before she called him up.
G/B                Cadd9
Three rings and an answering machine,
Dsus4       D
Is what she got.

          G                 Em
If you're callin' 'bout the car, I sold it.
Cadd9              Dsus4      D
If this is Tuesday night, I'm bowlin'.
Em                         G                        Cadd9
If you've got something to sell, you're wastin' your time,
        Dsus4  D
I'm not buyin'.
        G    G/B Am7                 G/B
If it's anybody  else, wait for the tone,
                  C  G/B
You know what to do.
Am      F              Dsus4  D
  And P.S., if this is Austin... (Use tab after this part)
        Cadd9     G   Cadd9   Gadd11
I still love you.

    Cadd9                 G
The telephone fell to the counter.
      Cadd9                      G
She'd heard, but she couldn't believe.
Cadd9         D         Em7
What kind of man would hang on that long,
Cadd9                        D
What kind of love that must be.
G/B              Cadd9           D
She waited three days, and then she tried again.
G/B                        Cadd9
She didn't know what she'd say,
        Dsus4                 D
But she heard three rings and then:

        G                 Em
If it's Friday night, I'm at the ballgame,
    Cadd9                Dsus4     D
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain.
Em                    G                 Cadd9             Dsus4 D
I'm headed out to the lake, and I'll be gone all weekend long.
         G            G/B   Am7
But I'll call you back when I get home
   G/B         C   G/B
On Sunday afternoon.
Am      F              Dsus4   D
  And P.S., if this is Austin...
        G
I still love you.

      Am
Well this time she left her number,
    Em
But not another word.
         Eb
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evening,
Dsus4               D       Dsus4 D
And this is what he heard:

If you're calling 'bout my heart, It's still yours.

  I should listen to it a little more.
F#m                     E           D
  Then it wouldn't have taken me so long (Strum chords from D onward)
               Esus4 E
To know, where I  belong.

  Can't you tell that this is Austin... (Return to fingerpicking)
