Your face

I tried to telephone They said you were not home

That's a lie

Your door

'Cause you walked hand in hand With another man

In my place

HOW TO FINGER THE CHORDS:
C D7 G6 G Em Bm Cmaj7 Am7 B7 G6add9
o o o oooo ooo o ooo ooo o o

The fingering for the G6add9 is a bit awkward so you may want to just
play it as a G major chord, although it doesn't sound as good.
