If A Woman Answers

INTRO: C F G

#1.
C                                        F
Her arms are cold but still she holds me to

that vow.
     G                             C
What once was love is now a prison wall.
C                                     F
And though I’d break away to meet you anyhow.
  G                                    C
I have to say please remember when you call.

CHORUS:
           F        G           C
If a woman answers, hang up the phone.
      F              G                    C
Don’t take a chance, please don’t ask for me.
           F        G           C
If a woman answers, hang up the phone.
  F             G                C
I love, you but darling, I’m not free.

C                                           F
The chains that bind this heart of mine may never

break.
    G                                     C
But they can’t stop my heart from wanting you.
C                                         F
I know that I should say, don’t call, for both

our sakes.
    G                              C
But I can’t, so remember, when you do.

CHORUS:
           F        G           C
If a woman answers, hang up the phone.
      F              G                    C
Don’t take a chance, please don’t ask for me.
           F        G           C
If a woman answers, hang up the phone.
  F             G                C
I love, you but darling, I’m not free.
