Hello In There Cifras

[Verse 1]
 
G          Am              D      G
We had an apartment in the city
         Am                 D      Bm
Me and Loretta liked living there
                          C
It's been years since the kids have grown
          G                       D          G
Oh, lives of their own, they left us alone
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
         Am            D       G
John and Linda live in Omaha
       Am               D      Bm
Joe is somewhere on the road
                      C
We lost Davy in the Korean war
                  G                                      D         F
And I still don't know what for, guess it doesn't matter anymore
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                            G
We know old trees just grow stronger
    F                        G
Old rivers grow wilder every day
        Bm               C
But old people just grow lonesome
            G                   D               G
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"
 
 
[Interlude]
 
G  Am  D    G  Am  D    G
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
         Am             D                G
Me and Loretta we don't talk much more
               Am                          D
She just sits, stares through the back door screen
    Bm                  C
And all the news just repeats itself
          G                    D                 G
Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
             Am             D      G
Someday I'll go and call up Rudy
            Am                 D    Bm
We worked together at the factory
                          C
But what'll I tell him if asks what's new
          G                                          D             F
I'd say, "Nothing, what's with you? There ain't much left to do"
 
 
[Chorus]
 
                            G
We know old trees just grow stronger
    F                        G
Old rivers grow wilder every day
        Bm               C
But old people just grow lonesome
            G                   D               G
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello"
 
 
[Interlude]
 
G  Am  D    G  Am  D    G
 
 
[Verse 5]
              Am               D                 G
So, if you're walking down the street sometime
              Am             D
And spot some hollow ancient eyes
Bm                          C
Please don't just pass them by and stare
          G                     D
As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there"
         G  Am  D
Say, "Hello"
         G  Am  D
Say, "Hello"
         G   Am  D
Say, "Hello"
         G   Am  D    G
Say, "Hello"
