Verse 1
 
I'm  calling to tell you its  over
 
Yes darling, you're now free to  go.
 
You're saying you're sorry you  hurt me
 
But you hurt me much more than you  know.

Bridge
 
You're  asking me where this call  comes from
  B7 
Oh, I  hope you won't  end up  here.
 
If your  new romance turns out a  failure,
 
Here's where you'll find me my  dear.
Chorus
 
I'm  just on the blue side of  lonesome
 
Right next to the Heartbreak  Hotel
 
In a tavern that's known as Three  Teardrops
 
On a bar stool, not doing so  well.

Verse 2
 
The  floor has a carpet of  sorrows,
 
Yet no one can weep in the  aisle.
 
And they say someone broke the bar  mirror,
 
With only the ghost of a  smile.

Bridge
 
The  hands on the clock never  alter,
  B7 
For  things never  change in this  place.
 
There's no  present, no past, no  future,
 
We're the ones who have lost in loves  race.
chorus
