[Verse 1]
         F          Dm               C
When you call me, I dance on the telephone
         F          Bb                     C
When I'm waiting, I gnaw my fingers to the bone
          F             Dm                   C
When it's raining, it's always raining in my heart
             F           C
But when you call me, it don't seem to matter that
    Bb                      C
The car won't start and the roof's started leaking
Bb            C
Some business talks down the wire
Bb           C
Our business sets it on fire
Am            Dm
When we're in touch with each other
          Bb             C
There's a cool exchange, touch me and believe it


[Chorus]
D         Bm
Operator, high anticipation
D                   Bm
Cool exchange, in a boy's imagination
D             Bm                 D       Bm
Ooh, ooh, I'm dancing on the telephone

Cool exchange, in a boy's imagination

Dancing on the telephone

[Verse 2]
         F          Dm                 C
When you call me, I fall for the party line
            F             C                  Bb
Could be in mensa with an IQ of under thirty-nine
              C
Ah, now we're talking
Bb             C
Some girls are fond of deceiving
Bb         C
You got my whole heart believing
Am            Dm
When we're in touch with each other
          Bb             C
There's a cool exchange, touch me and believe it
