Intro: (  C  F- G) x2
                     C  F-   G                      C  F-G  
Saw your face from a window, now I can't let it go-o
                      F   Bb-    F-         C  F-G  
But I don't know your number or your name
                 C    F-   G                      C   F- G  
If I only could phone you, I could say what I want to
                   F      Bb-                F    Bb-     F-   G  
When I'm trying to catch your eye, you're stepping out of view
NC             C    F-          G  C  
It's hard to do, it's such a shame
 F-            G                     C    F-  C/E- Dm-    C  F-  G   C  F-G  
 I can't get through without, your number or your name
                        C   F- G                          C   F-G  
Caught a glimpse in the subway, but you weren't going my way
                     F   Bb-    F-         C  F-G  
You were lost in the rumble of the train
                   C  F- G                        C   F-G  
In the rush of the city, you were standing so calmly
                F    Bb-            F    Bb-     F-  G  
Wish that I only had the nerve, to say hello to you
NC             C    F-          G  C  
It's hard to do, it's such a shame
 F-            G                     C    F-  C/E- Dm- C  
 I can't get through without, your number or your name
I'll be wBbaiting 'til the end of tCime
                                 Bb                D  G-F/G-C/G-G  
With this burning yearning in my heart and in my mind
Solo:   C  F-  G   C  F-  G   C  F-C/E-Dm- C  F-G  
                     C   F-  G                     C   F-G  
Saw you walking this morning, so I too started walking
                    F   Bb-             F      Bb-     F-   G  
Maybe this time will be the one, where you will see me too
NC             C    F-          G  C  
It's hard to do, it's such a shame
 F-            G                     C    F-  C/E- Dm-     C  F-G  
 I can't get through without, your number or your name
               C    F-          G  C  
It's hard to do, it's such a shame
 F-            G                     C    F-  C/E- Dm- C  
 I can't get through without, your number or your name
 F-            G                     C    F-  C/E- Dm-     C  F-C/E-Dm-C  
 I can't get through without, your number or your name
