While I hold back the tears

Hello, hello there, is this Martha?
C A Dm G
This is old Tom Frost
C A7 Dm G
And I am calling long distance
Am G F
Don''t worry about the cost

We''ll talk about it all

And, those were days of roses

D G7 C
And all you had was me

And there was no tomorrows
C F
As we packed away our sorrows
G7 Dm C G C G Am G F
And we saved it for a rainy day
C G C G6
And I feel so much older now
Am G7 F
And you''re much older too
C G C G6
Oh, how''s the husband and how''s the kids?
Am G F
You know that I got married too?

And we saved it for a rainy day
C G C G
And I was always so impulsive
Am G7 F
I guess that I still am
C G C G6
But all that really mattered then
Am G F
Was that I was a man
C A7 Dm G
I guess that our being together

Was never meant to be

Oh, but Martha, Oh Martha
Am G F
I love you, can''t you see

And, those were days of roses

And we saved it for a rainy day
OUTRO: (## slow to end ##)

And I remember quiet evenings
Am G F
Trembling close to you
