[Intro]
C#  G#  D#m
C#  G#  F#


[Verse]
A#m                      F#
  Friday night and it's snowing outside
C#                     G#
 I'm all alone here watching it fall
A#m               F#
TV's on but the sound's turned down
     C#               G#                  D#m
Somehow I knew he'd know to call right now


[Pre-Chorus]
   D#m                     F#
I oughta just let it ring
                            G#
'Cause every time it's the same damn thing


[Chorus]
 C#                        G#                   D#m     F#
Why's he always gotta be calling me when I'm lonely?
          C#                    G#                  D#m
It's so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
     C#                         G#
He swears that it's gonna be different
              D#m          F#
this time but it won't be
 D#m~
Why's he always gotta be calling me
          C#      G# Am
when I'm lonely?


[Verse]
A#m                 F#
 He left a message saying
   C#                G#
he was only fifteen minutes away
A#m                     F#
And that's just enough time for me
    C#            G#                 D#m
to figure out if I should stay or leave
 D#m
But if I think it through
F#
 I ain't got nothing better than you


[Chorus]
 C#
Why's he always gotta be
 G#                   D#m     F#
calling me when I'm lonely?
          C#
It's so wrong to be leading me
G#                  D#m
on and I can't say no
     C#
He swears that it's gonna be
  G#                     D#m          F#
different this time but it won't be
 D#m~
Why's he always gotta be
                     C#      G#
calling me when I'm lonely?


[Bridge]
D#m
  He's at the front door now
Fm
  With his magic smile
F#
  And he'll be gone tomorrow
G#
  But right now he's mine for
         C#  G#  F#  G#   A#m  F#  G#
a little while


[Chorus]
 C#
Why's he always gotta be
 G#                   D#m     F#
calling me when I'm lonely?
          C#
It's so wrong to be leading me
G#                  D#m
on and I can't say no
     C#
He swears that it's gonna be
  G#                     D#m          F#
different this time but it won't be
 D#m~
Why's he always gotta be calling me
          C#      G#
when I'm lonely?


[Outro]
 D#m~
Why's he always gotta be calling me when
     C#      G#  D#m  F#    C#  G#  F#
I'm lonely?
