 Put your sweet lips  a  little closer  to the phone.  
 4       5       -5  6        6      -6       6  5  3     -5   5  -4 
 And Let's pretend  that we're together,  all alone. 
 4     4  -4      5     4   -4     5    -5    -5      6        5     3 
 I'll tell the man  to turn the juke box  way down low, 
   4     4    -4      5      4         -5     5        -4    3       3      -3    -4  4 
 And you can tell  your friend there with you  he'll have to go.
 
  -4    5     -5   4     5      5  -5   -5      6   -6    6   
 Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true, 
  4   5   -5     6   4      4     3    -5   5  -4 
 Or is he holding you the way I do? 
  4         4   -4    5         4     -4     5      -5       6     6    5     3 
 Tho' love is blind, make up your mind, I've got to know, 
     4      4    -4      5    4   -5     5    -4   3      3    -3    -4  4 
 Should I hang up, or will you tell him he'll have to go? 
 
 -4        5     -5   -5       -5     6   -5    5   -4 
 You can't say  the words I want to hear 
     4      -4        5       5   5  -5   5 
 When you're with  another man, 
 -4  5    -5   -5         -5  6     -5     5   -4 
 If you love me,  answer "yes" or "no," 
 -5   4       5  3    -5   5   -4 
 Darling,  I will understand. 
 
 4     4    -4        5      4    4    -4 5   -5  -5  6  -6    6   
 So put your sweet lips  a  little closer to the phone. 
    4      5      -5  6         6    -6        6  5  3      -5  5  -4 
 And Let's pretend  that we're together,  all alone. 
 4     4  -4        5   4   -4     5    -5    -5       6         5     3 
 I'll tell the man  to turn the juke box  way down low, 
     4     4    -4   5         4      -5       5     -4        3       3    -3    -4  4 
 And you can tell  your friend there with you  he'll have to go.
