ABBA, Ring Ring (1973)
Key: :[B] (w: Benny Andersson, Stig Anderson, Bjorn Ulvaeus)
INTRO: [B x4]
VERSE 1:
I was
[B] sitting by the phone; I was waiting all alone
[E]
Baby by myself I sit and wait and wonder a-
[B]-bout you
It's a
[B] dark and dreary night; seems like nothing's going right
[E]
Won't you
[E] tell me honey how can I go on here with-
[B]-out you?
PRE-CHORUS 1:
Yes I'm
[F#] down and feeling blue
And I
[F#] don't know what to do, woah
CHORUS 1:
[B] Ring, ring, why don't you give me a
[F#] call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them
[B] all
[B] Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the
[F#] wall
CHORUS 2:
And I
[C#m] sit all alone impatiently; Won't you please understand the need in me
So,
[F#] ring, ring, why don't you give me a
[B] call?
So,
[F#] ring, ring, why don't you give me a
[B] call?
VERSE 2:
You were
[B] here and now you're gone; Hey did I do something wrong?
[E]
I just can't believe that I could be so badly mis-
[B]-taken
Was it
[B] me or was it you? Tell me, are we really through?
[E]
Won't you
[E] hear me cry and you will know that my heart is
[B] breaking
PRE-CHORUS 2:
Please for-
[F#]-give and then forget
Or maybe
[F#] darling better yet, oh-oh
REPEAT CHORUS 1 & 2:
OUTRO:
So,
[F#] ring, ring, why don't you give me a
[B] call?
So,
[F#] ring, ring, why don't you give me a
[B] call?
