Back of my hand Jags

[E]You only call me if you're f[A]eeling blue.[B]

[E]You tell me I don't pay att[A]ention to you.[B]

[E]But if you only knew[C#m] just what I'm going through,

[A]You wouldn't phone those guys who m[B]ess around with you, girl.

[E]When I call you I get st[A]ock replies.[B]

[E]You whip them out before you d[A]ry your eyes.[B]

[E]I'm not a fruit machine,[C#m] a nineteen-sixties dream.

[A]I dreamed about you last night [B]but you didn't see girl.

[C#m]You're not unreadable[F#m], you're not unbeatable.

[A]I know just what you are. [B] Don't push your luck too far.

[C#m]You're not untouchable[F#m], not just another girl.

[A]I'd get in touch with you, I o[B]nly wish you knew that

[E]I've got your number wr[A]itten on the b[B]ack of my h[E]and.

I've got your number wr[A]itten on the b[B]ack of my h[E]and.

I've got your number.[A] [B] [E]

I had a dream I had another girl

But in the morning she was just a kick inside

I hope I'm getting through the interference to

My money's running out, I don't know what to say now.

The operator's saying cut the line

You want to call here for the very last time.

You're only young at heart, but there's a time to start

Just realizing what I've got down here, girl.

(chorus)

guitar solo over:

[C#m]Say, don't you r[F#m]ealize. [C#m]Is there nothing l[F#m]eft inside?

[D]Hey, did I g[Bm]et you wrong? [A]Say, where has your n[C#sus]umber g[C#]one?

(half of first verse, chorus)
