Standard (EADGBE)

Alright, so that's the intro part to the song.

For the rest of the song the guitarists just use power chords.

Verse

Grandfather watches the grandfather clock

 And the phone hasnt rang for so long

 And the time flies by like a vulture in the sky

Suddenly he breaks into song

Pre-chorus

Im waiting by the phone

Waiting for you to call me up and tell me Im not alone

Im waiting by the phone

Waiting for you to call me up and tell me Im not alone

Now use the same progression and timing as you did in the last verse and chorus

Hello, speak up, is there somebody there?

These hang-ups are getting me down

In a world frozen over with over-exposure

Lets talk it over, lets go out and paint the town

Im waiting by the phone

Waiting for you to call me up and tell me Im not alone

Chorus

Cause I want somebody to shove

 I need somebody to shove

 I want somebody to shove me

Youre a dream for insomniacs, prize in the cracker jacks

All the difference in the world is just a call away

And Im waiting by the phone

Waiting for you to call me up and tell me Im not alone

Yes Im waiting by the phone

Im waiting for you to call me up and tell me Im not alone

Cause I want somebody to shove

I need somebody to shove

I want somebody to shove me

Yes I want somebody to shove

I need somebody to shove

I want somebody to shove me
