Intro: C F C F 
 
C                            F             C 
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone 
C                                     G 
Let's pretend that we're together all alone 
C                                            F 
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low 
       C                           G                    C 
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go 
C                            F             C 
Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true 
C                                     G 
Or is he holding you the way I do 
C                                            F 
Though love is blind, make up your mind, I've got to know 
       C                           G                    C 
Should I hang up, or will you tell him, he'll have to go. 
F 
You can't say the words I want to hear 
                      C 
When you're with another man 
F 
Do you want me, answer yes or no 
C     G 
Darling, I will understand 
C                            F             C 
Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone 
C                                     G 
Let's pretend that we're together all alone 
C                                            F 
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low 
       C                           G                    C 
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
