Intro: C G C G Am G F  (2x)  
  
C  G      C      G 
Operator, number please 
     Am      G7   F 
It's been so many years 
    C        G      C      G 
And she'll remember my old voice 
      Am     G        F      C 
While I hold back the tears 
  
  
          A7       Dm       G 
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 
  
  
C         A7    Dm       G 
It's been forty years or more 
    C       A        Dm   G 
Now Martha, please recall 
C       A7      Dm     G 
Meet me out for coffee where 
      Am    G       F 
We'll talk about it all 
  
  
Chorus: 
     C                  F 
And, those were days of roses 
C          F 
Poetry and prose 
            Am    C       F 
And Martha, all I had was you 
            D   G7  C 
And all you had was me 
                   F 
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? 
  
  
    C     A7      Dm        G 
And lucky that ya found someone 
   C        A      Dm    G 
To make you feel secure 
           C       A7     Dm        G 
Oh, 'cause we were all so young and foolish 
Am     G     F 
Now we are mature 
  
  
Chorus: 
     C                  F 
And, those were days of roses 
C          F 
Poetry and prose 
            Am    C       F 
And Martha, all I had was you 
            D   G7  C 
And all you had was me 
                   F 
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    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 
    C     A        Dm    G 
Was never meant to be 
        C      A7  Dm       G 
Oh, but Martha,  Oh Martha 
  Am        G         F 
I love you, can't you see 
  
  
Chorus: 
     C                  F 
And, those were days of roses 
C          F 
Poetry and prose 
            Am    C       F 
And Martha, all I had was you 
            D   G7  C 
And all you had was me 
                   F 
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 
  
  
OUTRO:     (## slow to end ##) 
    C   G      C     G6 
And I remember quiet evenings 
Am        G        F 
Trembling close to you
