	A	E
I'm	calling to tell you its	over

	A
Yes darling, you're now free to	go.

	E
You're saying you're sorry you	hurt me

	A
But you hurt me much more than you	know.

	D	A
You're	asking me where this call	comes from

	E	B7	E
Oh, I	hope you won't	end up	here.

	A	E
If your	new romance turns out a	failure,

	A
Here's where you'll find me my	dear.

	A	E
I'm	just on the blue side of	lonesome

	A
Right next to the Heartbreak	Hotel

	E
In a tavern that's known as Three	Teardrops

	A
On a bar stool, not doing so	well.

	A	E
The	floor has a carpet of	sorrows,

	A
Yet no one can weep in the	aisle.

	E
And they say someone broke the bar	mirror,

	A
With only the ghost of a	smile.

	D	A
The	hands on the clock never	alter,

	E	B7	E
For	things never	change in this	place.

	A	E
There's no	present, no past, no	future,

	A
We're the ones who have lost in loves	race.
