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