[Intro] 
C, Cb6/E, C, Gm6
[Verse 1] 
[C]You and I were meant to [Am]be
[(Am)]Even though you don't know [G]me
[(G)]I don't even know your n[F]ame
[(F)]And do you think that you know [E]mine[E7]?
[C]You were lonely, I was b[Am]ored
[(Am)]I may be more than you can aff[F]ord
[(F)]But I'm sure we'll meet halfw[E]ay[E7]
[Pre-Cborus] 
And [G]I've [G7]got this crazy [F]feeling
you've been trying to [Am]get [G]to [Dadd9/F#]me[D7]
When [Fm7]all you have to do is calmly
[Cborus] 
[C]Call me [Cb6/E] [C]call me[Gm6]
[Verse 2] 
Basic service: sixty bucks
I'll roll the dice, you try your luck
A pair gets me a week in rent
And a straight gets even more
I'm no good at playing cards
I hold my dates in high regard
Pay up front and ye shall receive
[Bridge] 
Love is never [G]in-between
if it isn't [C]one thing, then
it's always something e[Am]lse
[F]I don't even know [G]what I mean
I thought that it was [C]nothing, but now I
can't find nothing [F]else
[Am]Oh, [G] you can't hide[Dadd9/F#] [D7] [Fm7]
But at [G7]least you tried to
[Cborus] 
Call me, call me, call me
[Coda] 
Are you ashamed of what you've done?
All we did was have some fun
I won't judge and I won't tell
And I'll forget you when you've gone
I pity all you working stiffs,
Living wondering "what if?"
"What if someday I was free?"
[Cborus] 
Call me, call me
[Coda] 
C, Cb6/E, C, Gm6, C (x2)
[End on C]
