I just called to say

I just called

6 -7   7      7   6 -7 7  7 
No New Year's Day to celebrate--

6   -7   7    7 -7   
No choc'late covered 

 7 -8   8    -8   7 -7 -6
candy hearts to give away.

-6    7 -8   8-8   -6   7   -7  -7
No first of Spring, no song to sing.
-6   7    -8    -8    7 7 -8  8-8 7-7  6
In fact, here's just another ordinary day.

Verse 2
No April rain,  No flowers bloom
No wedding Saturday within the month of June.
But what it is, is something true
Made up of these three words I must say to you.

Chorus
7  7     -6   7   -7 6  -7   7
I just called to say I love you.

7  7    -6    7  -7  -6   6  -6  5
I just called to say how much I care.

7  7    -6    7   -7 6  -8   7
I just called to say I love you,

 7  7  -6  6   -5  -4   5 -4  5  5-4  4
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.

Verse 3
No summer's high, no warm July-
No harvest moon to light one tender August night.
No Autumn breeze; no falling leaves.
Not even time for birds to fly to Southern skies.

chorus

Verse 4
No Libra sun, no Halloween.
No giving thantks to all the Christmas joy you bring.
But what it is, through old and new
To fill you heart like no three words could ever do.

Chorus
