Verse 1:

	B                         C   B
	I just got out my little red book

	                                 C  B    C  B
	The minute that you said goodbye

	                                   C   B
	I thumbed right through my little red book

	                             C   B
	I wasn't gonna sit and cry

	                E    F
	And I went from A to Z

	                        E
	I took out every pretty girl in town

	       F         G
	They danced with me  and as I held them

Chorus:

	C              F
	All I did was talk about you

	C                  F
	Hear your name and I'd start to cry

	C                F           B          Am
	There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

Verse 2:

	There ain't no girl in my little red book
	Who could ever replace your charms
	And each girl in my little red book
	Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
	Oh won't you please come back
	Without your precious love I can't go on
	Where can love be   I need you so much

repeat chorus

Verse 3:

	(lead guitar (as per intro, doubled w/scat vocal, 2X) replaces first
	 four lines)

	Oh won't you please come back
	Without your precious love I can't go on
	It's haunting me   I need you so much

Chorus 3:

	C              F
	All I did was talk and talk about you

	C                  F
	Hear your name and I'd start to cry

	C               F             B
	There's just no getting over you

	C              F
	All I did was talk and talk about you

	C                  F
	Hear your name and I'd start to cry

	C               F             B        Am
	There's just no getting over you... oh no
