            [Chorus]
         D                   G             D
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone,
                                       Em7  A7
Let’s pretend that we’re together all alone,
              D               D7               G
I’ll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low,
            D                      A7
and you can tell your friend there with you,
              D  G  D
He’ll have to go,
[Verse 1]
A7      D              G              D
Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true,
                               Em7   A7
or is he holding you the way I do?
             D                  D7               G
Tho’ love is blind make up your mind I’ve got to know,
         D                    A7
Should I hang up, or will you tell him,
              D
He’ll have to go,
[Middle Section]
          G
You can’t say the words I want to hear,
             D            D7
while you're with another man,
       G
If you want me answer, yes or no,
        D           A7
darling I will understand,
[Chorus]
A7       D                   G             D
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone,
                                      Em7  A7
Let’s pretend that we’re together all alone,
              D               D7               G
I’ll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low,
            D                      A7
and you can tell your friend there with you,
              D
He’ll have to go.
