Notes:
-All chords are according to a Capo
on the 4th fret
-In my band we play this song with a
guitar capo'd at the 4th fret with a
piano playing straight chords (E, B
G#m, F#).
-The add9's sus4's and m7's are just how I play
it in my band, my piano player doesn't even
play them he just plays E major - B major
G# Minor - F# Major
-In my chord diagrams the first chord is the
chord relative to capo the chord in parenthesis
is the actual chord.

[Intro]
Cadd9 G
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
Em7 Dsus4
All of my change I spent on you
Cadd9
Where have the times gone baby
G Em7 Dsus4
It's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
[Verse 1]
Cadd9
Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember
G Em7
The people we used to be It's even harder to picture
Dsus4 Cadd9
That you're not here next to me You say it's too late to make it
G Em7
But is it too late to try? And in our time that you wasted
Dsus4 Cadd9
All of our bridges burned down
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em7
I've wasted my nights You turned out the lights
Dsus4 Cadd9 G
Now I'm paralyzed Still stuck in that time when we called it love
Em7 Dsus4
But even the sun sets in paradise
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
Em7 Dsus4
All of my change I spent on you
Cadd9
Where have the times gone baby
G Em7 Dsus4
It's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
Cadd9 G
If happy ever after did exist
Em7 Dsus4
I would still be holding you like this
Cadd9 G
And all those fairytales are full of shit
Em7 Dsus4
One more fucken love song I'll be sick
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 G
You turned your back on tomorrow Cause you forgot yesterday
Em7 Dsus4
I gave you my love to borrow But you just gave it away
Cadd9 G
You can't expect me to be fine I don't expect you to care
Em7 Dsus4 Cadd9
I know I've said it before But all of our bridges burned down
[Pre-Chorus]
G Em7
I've wasted my nights You turned out the lights
Dsus4 Cadd9 G
Now I'm paralyzed Still stuck in that time when we called it love
Em7 Dsus4
But even the sun sets in paradise
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
Em7 Dsus4
All of my change I spent on you
Cadd9
Where have the times gone baby
G Em7 Dsus4
It's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
Cadd9 G
If happy ever after did exist
Em7 Dsus4
I would still be holding you like this
Cadd9 G
And all those fairytales are full of shit
Em7 Dsus4
One more fucken love song I'll be sick
Cadd9
Now I'm at a payphone
[Verse 3]
G
man fuck that shit I'll be out spending all this money
Em7
while you're sitting round Wondering why it wasn't you who came
Dsus4
up from nothing Made it from the botton Now when you see me I'm stunning
Cadd9
And all of my cars start with a push of a button
G
Telling me the chances I blew up or whatever you call it
Em7
Switched the number to my phone So you never could call it
Dsus4
Don't need my name on my show You can tell it I'm ballin'
Cadd9
Swish, what a shame could have got picked
G Em7
Had a really good game but you missed your last shot
So you talk about who you see at the top
Dsus4
Or what you could have saw But sad to say it's over for
Cadd9
Phantom pulled up valet open doors
G Em7
Wiz like go away, got what you was looking for Now it's me who they want
Dsus4
So you can go take that little piece of shit with you
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
Em7 Dsus4
All of my change I spent on you
Cadd9
Where have the times gone baby
G Em7 Dsus4
It's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two
Cadd9 G
If happy ever after did exist
Em7 Dsus4
I would still be holding you like this
Cadd9 G
And all those fairytales are full of shit
Em7 Dsus4
One more fucken love song I'll be sick
Cadd9
Now I'm at a payphone
