Hello In There Cifras

G           Am              Dm
 We had an apartment in the city
G      Am                       Dm
Me and Loretta liked living there
 G7                             C
Well, it'd been years Since the kids had grown
       G                  D
A life of their own left us alone
 G        Am               Dm
John and Linda live in Omaha
G            Am             Dm
And Joe is somewhere on the road
 G7                 C
We lost Davy in the Korean war
                   G                            D
And I still don't know what for, don't matter anymore
F                                 G
Ya' know that old trees just grow stronger
        F                        G
And old rivers grow wilder ev'ry day
G7                   C
Old people just grow lonesome
             G               D               G
Waiting for someone to say, "Hello in there, hello."
G      Am                 Dm
Me and Loretta, we don't talk much more
 G           Am                           Dm
She sits and stares through the back door screen
G7                     C
And all the news just repeats itself
                     G                    D
Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen
 G      Am                  Dm
Someday I'll go and call up Rudy
G         Am              Dm
We worked together at the factory
G7                            C
But what could I say if asks "What's new?"
           G                        D
"Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do."
G            Am               Dm
So if you're walking down the street sometime
G              Am            Dm
And spot some hollow ancient eyes
G7                         C
Please don't just pass 'em by and stare
          G                   D              G
As if you didn't care, say, "Hello in there, hello."
