At the sound of the tone
By: John Schneider

Key of G

Intro:  G C G C G

G C     G
I called her up to say I'm sorry, I just can't have lunch today
     D     Em    D      C
Cause the boss just called and he's flying in from L.A.
    G 
And as the phone rang, I remembered the time
    C   G
How simple things used to be
    D      Em   D    C
Then her voice came on the line, not her, but the answer machine


Chorus
     C D Em C D
She said, "I'm sorry, I can't take your call, cause I'm packing up to
away
    G      C D
And John, if that's you, you'll just cancel the lunch anyway
 Em C   G      C
Ah you used to find the time, but now you don't even try
   G C    D    G D  C
So at the sound of the tone you're on your own...goodbye.

 G      C   G
I ran down to the street and I caught a cab, God I had to get back home
   D    Em D C
But the house was empty, except for the code-a-phone
    G   C   G
And as the tears came, I remembered the time, how happy we used to be
 D Em D     C
And I'll never forget the last words she ever said to me

Chorus
      Em C G    C
She said you used to find the time, but now you don't even try
   G C     D G     D C  D C G
So at the sound of the tone, you're on your own.......goodbye
