Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Telephone Girl (Arville Reed)
Subject: Chord Req: TELEPHONE GIRL
howdy folks.
I've been trying to work out the chords for the above tune and am a bit stuck near the end of the verse and in the chorus. Here's what I have so far, but I could use some help. The' C' doesn't sound quite right to me. TIA.
TELEPHONE GIRL
Blind Alfred Reed
G
My heart is broke, it ain't no joke
D G
I'm happy and I'm sad
D
I feel so queer, I sometimes fear
G
That thing will drive me mad
G - C G
A little girl with frizzen curls
D G
Came here a week ago
To work upon that telephone
And say hello, hello
Chorus:
G
Hello, hello, hello, hello
D G
Her voice with music rings
D
It's sweeter than the whippoorwill
G
That in the woodland sings
G
Across the floor, beside the door
D G
As I march to and fro
C G
She leans upon that telephone
D G
And say(s) hello, hello
