verse 1
A                                  E             A
Here of late I feel so strange I'm happy and I'm sad
    E               E7                                     A
The way my feelings are sometimes I think they'll drive me mad
  A                                         E            A
A pretty little girl with frizzy curls came here a week ago
    A             A/B A/C# D            E                A
To work upon the tel -e-  phone, And sh'said, hello, hello

verse 2
A                                  E                A
Hello, hello, her sweet hello, her voice like music rings
     E                E7                                  A
It's sweeter than the whippoorwill, that in the moonlight sings
       A                               E             A
As the bell boy here at this hotel I'm always on the go
   A             A/B A/C# D              E              A E A
And then she'll ring that telephone, and say hello, hello

verse 3
  A                               E              A
I haven't spoken to her yet, I've been in such a daze
   E                   E7                                    A
Although sometimes she looks at me, with a sort of a distant gaze
       A                                E                A
That I feel so weak, I cannot speak, my heart is beating so
   A             A/B A/C# D              E              A
And then she'll ring that telephone, and say hello, hello

verse 4
  A                             E               A
I see her as she walks along in sunshine and in rain
      E                  E7                     A
I can hear her midst the jangle of the elevated train
    A                               E           A
I'd buy for us a little place where honeysuckle grow
   A             A/B A/C# D               E              A
She could meet me at the  garden gate and say hello, hello

verse 5
    A                               E               A
In about a year, she married me and then we settled down
     E             E7                         A
In a pretty little bungalow not very far from town
    A                              E                A
At night as I go home from work my heart is beating so
    A          A/B A/C# D       E            A
She'll kiss me at the door and  say hello, hello, hello
