Hel (C)lo a (G7sus)gain, hel (C)lo.

I (F)could n’t (Dm7)sleep at (Em7)all to (Am7)night.

And I (G7sus)know it’s late,

but I (Fmaj7)could n’t wait.

Hel (C)lo, my (G7sus)friend, hel (C)lo.

Just (C)called to (G7sus)let you (C)know

I (F)think a (Dm7)bout you (Em7)ev ’ry (Am7)night when I’m (G7sus)here a lone

and you’re (Fmaj7)there at home.

Hel (C)lo.

May be (Em7)it’s been cra zy, and may be I’m to blame,

but I put my (Em7)heart a bove my (Dm7)head.

We’ve been (Am)through it all, and you (Em7)loved me just the same.

And when you’re not there,

I (Dm7)just need to (G7)hear: Hel (C)lo, my (G7sus)friend, hel (C)lo.

It’s (C)good to (G7sus)need you (C)so.

It’s (F)good to (Dm7)love you (Em7)like I (Am7)do and to (G7sus)feel this way

when I hear you say

And I (Ab9sus)know it’s late,

but I could n’t wait.

Hel (Db)lo.
