Intro:
D C D G
Verse 1:
C C2
Hey its me, what a big surprise,
C C2 G Gsus4 G
Calling you up from a restaurant round the bend
C C2
Just got in from way up north
C C2 G Gsus4 G
Aching and tired now, and I could use a friend
Bm C D D2 D
Might be a fool to think that you do wanna see me again
Verse 2:
I know its been a while since I talked to you
Nothing wrong, it's just nothing ever goes as planned
Many times I thought I'd call
Didn't have your number in my hand
I know its true, you'd never do the same thing to me
Chorus:

D D2 G Gsus4 G
I never meant to make you cry
Gsus4 G C C2 C
And though I know I shouldn't call
C2 C Am
It just reminds us of the cost
D
Oh, of everything we've lost
G Gsus4 G
Bad timing that's all.
Gsus4 G Gsus4 G
And maybe soon there'll come a day
Gsus4 C C2 C
When no more tears will fall
C2 Am
We each forgive a little bit,
D
Then we both look back on it
G Gsus4 G
As just bad timing that's all.
(Instrumental verse)
Verse 3:
Used to have so many plans
Something always seemed to turn out wrong.
Never could catch up to you
Many on and doing all you've done
I don't know why, the harder I try, the harder it comes
(Chorus)
(Outro: same as intro)
