    a little time to yourself,

                                       A

    I'm staring down this telephone wonderin',

                                              A7

    there might be someone else:

2. (sung : ) If a man answers          when I call,

3. If a man answers this time of night,

  at least I'll know somebody's holding you tight.

            G     D              Em             D

    If a man answers, I won't call again,

                   A                                       A7

    and I'll know where I stand while I twist in the wind.

 

           G                    A                     F#m              G

        Em                           A                       G    D               - Em - D

    I know my heart will break in two, if a man answers,

4. (spoken)           I just gotta tell you, girl,

                                   G                   - D

    maybe somehow make you see,

    how much I want you to come back to me.

                  G                   - D                Em                D

    But if a man answers,       (sung : ) you'll never know,

     A                                  A7

    he'll let you sleep while I let you go.
