Intro(2x)
C   G   F   Am  G

Verse
      C            G
Oh, I know I don't own you
      F                           Am       G
But I don't even know if I should phone you
          C           G
Someone's sending me letters
       F                            Am       G
Saying you've been going with other fellas

    C       G
And babe, I want you
F                 Am      G
But I don't wanna cry
     C           G
I'll talk for an hour
     F                       Am        G
To a machine on the end of a telephone line

Chorus
G           F
Oh, it just kills me
                       C     Am
When all you've got to do is call
              Bb
Oh, do it any time
             F
'Cos there's never no-one home
F7
Never no-one home
C
"Leave your message on the ansaphone."

I'm not trying to be clever
But at least we're not still living together
All those calls in the evening
If I answer they hang up without speaking

And babe, I want you
But I don't wanna cry
I'll talk for an hour
To a machine on the end of a telephone line

Oh, it just kills me
When all you've got to do is call
Oh, do it any time
'Cos there's never no-one home
Never no-one home
"Leave your message on the ansaphone."

Solo
C        G               F              
(Bleep!) "Hello? It's me.
                          Am    G 
I just wanted to call and say
          C                               G 
that it doesn't matter what you get up to. 
F                                 Am          G
I just want you to stay in touch. That's all." (click)

Bridge
G                         F
Oh, are you really not at home?
                          C
Or are you there, but not alone?
          Am
Screening calls
                  Bb
you don't want to receive?
Needing calls
                     C
Calls that come from me?

Oh, I need to see you
It's not enough for me just to hear you
You said you'd be here by 10:30
But you want to stay out and be dirty

Oh, it just kills me
When all you've got to do is call
Oh, do it any time
'Cos there's never no-one home
Never no-one home
"Leave your message on the ansaphone."
