| Martha (from closing time) D A7 D A7 Bm A G D A7 D A7 Bm A G D A7 D A7 Bm A G operator, number please, it's been so many years D A7 D A7 A G she'll remember my old voice while i fight the tears D B7 Em A7 D B7 Em A7 hello hello there is this martha this is old tom frost D B7 Em A7 Bm A G i am calling long distance don't worry 'bout the cost D B7 Em A7 D B7 Em A7 it's been fourteen years or more now martha please recall D B7 Em A Bm A G and meet me out for coffee where we'll talk about it all D G D G and those were days of roses of poetry and prose Bm G Em A D G and martha all i had was you and all you had was me D G D G there was no tomorrow we packed away our sorrows Bm G A D G D A7 D A7 Bm A G and we saved them for a rainy day i feel so much older now you're so much older too how's the husband, how's the kids you know that i got married too lucky that you found someone who makes you feel secure we were all so young and foolish now we are mature and those were... i was always so impulsive guess that i still am all that really mattered then was that i was a man guess that our bein' together wasn't meant to be martha martha i love you can't you see and those were... i remember quiet evenings trembling close to you tabs of this song back to homepage back to lyrics |
