*** intro:
F g f g

*** verse 1:
F g
If i'm calling you out of the blue
F g
It's because it's never-ending
F g
And if i'm dragging out pictures of you
F g
It's because i'm only pretending

*** chorus:
C f g
And if i'm looking over my shoulder
C f g
It's just because i hope you'll be there
C f g
And if i'm looking older and older
C f g
It's because i know i haven't a prayer

F g f g

*** verse 2:

When i'm wearing my heart on my sleeve f g
It wears out after a fashion f g
And i'm finding it hard to believe f g
Your whole-hearted lack of compassion f g

*** chorus:

And if i'm looking over my shoulder c f g
It's just because i hope you'll be there c f g
And if i'm looking older and older c f g
It's because i know i haven't a prayer c f g

*** instrumental chorus

And if i'm looking over my shoulder c f g
It's just because i hope you'll be there c f g
And if i'm looking older and older c f g
It's because i know i haven't a prayer c f g
