Tom: Dm
INTRO- there is a bass part for this, but standard 6-string guitars can't go low enough.
So, in a key higher it's (relative to capo):
E|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------|
D|-0-0-0-0-------3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-|
A|---------3-3-3-------------------|
E|---------------------------------|
And then for the second time the intro verse is played, you can switch to:
E|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------|
D|-0-0-0-0-------3-3-3-3-3---------|
A|---------3-3-3-----------1-1-1-1-|
E|---------------------------------|
OR EVEN E X IT UP WITH THIS:
E|---------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------|
D|-0-0-0-0-------------------------|
A|---------3-3-3-3-----------------|
E|-----------------1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-|
whatever sounds good to you, yo. you're the one playing the song. (the last two versions
aren't even IN the intro really,but they sound okay).
There was this cool, cool girl
She was about your age
She kind of had your smile
She kind of had your face
[x2]
CHORUS
Dm C
She wanted to be my lover
F Bb
But my heart was with another and
Dm C
Yeah I really wish that we could be friends
F Bb
But I know I'm never gonna get you back again
Dm C
I just wish that you would answer the phone
F B Dm C F Bb
'Cause, I could really do with talking to you right now
VERSE 1
there is a little guitar part throughout this that i tabbed to the best of my ability
(which is not very good, so feel free to correct me):
E|-----5-----3-----------------|

D|-----------------------------|
A|-----------------------------|

Dm C
I look up into the sky and
F Bb Dm C F Bb
I wish that I could fly, high
VERSE 2 (bridge?)
another guitar part. this is a very basic version of it, repeat the notes a couple time
if you want it to sound profesh:
E|----------------------------|
B|----------------------------|
G|---------------2-----3--3-2-|
D|-0----3-------------3-------|
A|-------3-----3--------------|
E|----------------------------|
Oh yeah, and there are a couple of bends and effects used within the guitar parts, but I
am not profesh enough to tab them. My apologies.
Dm C

F Bb

Dm C

Dm C
I just wish that you would answer the phone
F Bb Dm C F Bb

Dm C F Bb
But you gave it, you gave it to another
Dm C F Bb

CHORUS:
Dm C
