Capo: 1
Intro:   D  G  D  A  D  G  D  A

   D     G       D       A   D       G      D    A   
Hello to who I'm talkin' to, no more automation 
    D      G        D       A           D        G     D    A
I'm hoping you can walk me through, and solve my situation 
           Bm            G                     D     A       
It's after midnight, and I've been on hold so long 
G                     A                     D    G   D   A             
You broke through the silence now I'm not alone 

        D     G      D        A       D       G       D    A
You're asking me to help you see, the words begin to flow 
         D      G       D       A         D       G      D    A
This was not my plan or my intention, and how was I to know? 
            Bm            G                          D     A
For such a short time, I feel I've known you for so long 
G                    A             D    G   D   A
I don't think I can make it on my own 

   G        D      G         D     
So send somebody, 'cause I'm stranded 
            G        A          G     A  
And there's no place left where I can run, 
 G        D      G         D           G       
Send somebody, 'cause I'm hanging by a thread 
        A           G         A       
Now the whole damn thing's undone 

D  G  D  A  D  G  D  A

    D       G       D        A            D    G        D      A
You have to know I can't let go, now I've made this connection 
     D       G        D         A       D      G      D    A
You see the love that runs the show, or random speculation 
           Bm            G           D     A
In my desperation I'm a danger to myself 
            G           A                    D    G   D   A
I need your direction, yeah, I need someone else

From my window, as the leaves begin in the fall 
   G                  A                     Bm7          
Before the cold wind comes, please hear my call

Send somebody, 'cause I'm hanging by a thread 
        A     G      A       
Now before I come undone
