[Verse 1] (spoken)
AI tell myself, what's done is done
AI tell myself, don't be a fool
EPlay the field, have a lot of fun
EIt's easy when you play it coAol
AI tell myself, don't be a chump
AWho cares, let him stay away
EThat's when the phone rings, and I jump
EAnd as I grab the phone I prAay
[Chorus]
ALet it please be him, oh dear God

AIt must be him, but it's not him
EAnd then I die, Athat's when I die

AI take the pieces off the floor
EPut my heart on the shelf again
EYou'll never hurt me aAnymore

[Intro]

[Verse 1] (spoken)

I tell myself, what's done is done

I tell myself, don't be a fool

Play the field, have a lot of fun

E A

It's easy when you play it cool

I tell myself, don't be a chump

Who cares, let him stay away

That's when the phone rings, and I jump

E A

And as I grab the phone I pray

[Chorus]

Let it please be him, oh dear God

It must be him, it must be him

E A

Or I shall die, or I shall die

Oh hello, hello, my dear God

It must be him, but it's not him

E A

And then I die, that's when I die

[Verse 2] (spoken)

After a while, I'm myself again

I take the pieces off the floor

Put my heart on the shelf again

E A

You'll never hurt me anymore

I'm not a puppet on a string

I'll find somebody else someday

That's when the phone rings, and once again

I start to pray

[Chorus]

Let it please be him, oh dear God

It must be him, it must be him

E A

Or I shall die, or I shall die

[Chorus] (Key Change up to Bb)

Oh hello, hello, my dear God

It must be him, but it's not him

F Bb

And then I die, again I die

[Outro] (Key Change up to B)

Let it please be him, oh dear God

It must be him, it must be him

F# B

Or I shall die, or I shall die
