Phoning Heaven
Waylon Wyatt

Capo 3rd Fret

 

 

 

[Intro]

C G Am Fmaj7

 

 

[Verse 1]

 

         C

We don't talk about you often

           G

But you're long from forgotten

      Am                            Fmaj7

Been forever since we've seen your face

          C

But there ain't nothing against you

          G

It's just easier to live through

     Am                             Fmaj7

This life thinkin' you're one call away

                C

Only one call away

 

C G Am Fmaj7

 

 

[Verse 2]

 

         C

And ever since the day you parted

            G

You left us all so broken hearted

    Am                           Fmaj7

Memories of you running through our minds

        C

Well I found your old contact

     G

In a phone book a good while back

      Am                        Fmaj7

And I just want to call it sometimes

   G                         Fmaj7

In hopes you'll be on the other line

 

 

[Chorus]

 

           C

If I could make a call up to heaven

       G

I'd be phoning you twenty four seven

      Am                                       Fmaj7

Not a single day'd pass without you hearing a ring

Fmaj7

Have you put me on speaker

              C

Hear them angels sing

 

C G Am Fmaj7

C G Am Fmaj7

 

 

[Verse 3]

            C

Each time I cry over you leaving

            G

I dial your phone hoping you're receiving

  Am                       Fmaj7

A ring from me to you up above

               C

And though the phone goes straight to voicemail

      G

Can't help from thinkin' it won't fail

     Am                        Fmaj7

That maybe one day you'll pick up

          G                        Fmaj7

And you'd share a few words from above

 

 

[Chorus]

           C

If I could make a call up to heaven

       G

I'd be phoning you twenty four seven

      Am                                       Fmaj7

Not a single day'd pass without you hearing a ring

          C

You could tell me all about the good lord

          G

While I'm here wishing I could do more

        Am                   Fmaj7

Than to talk to you only in my dreams

         G                     Fmaj7

At least there heaven ain't as far as it seems

 

C G Am Fmaj7

C G Am Fmaj7

 

 

[Chorus]

(Single Strum)

           C

If I could make a call up to heaven

       G

I'd be phoning you twenty four seven

      Am                                       Fmaj7

Not a single day'd pass without you hearing a ring

                   Fmaj7

Have you put me on speaker

                 C

Hear them angels sing
