[Ab] [Bbm] Hello?
Hi, it's me, what's up baby?
I'm sorry, [F] listen, I'm gonna be late tonight, but don't be up and [Bb] wait for me, okay?
Where are you?
Uh, say that again?
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Hello?
Listen, if you can hear me, please say goodbye, alright?
I gotta [Eb] go!
[Db] [Bb] [Bb] Let me tell you a story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went [F] out, just the two of us, and nothing [Bbm] is in it
But can't you go [Bb] home and miss she was standing [F] in front of [Gb] me
I said, I, [Bbm] I gotta let her place me, I'm blind, I wanna go
I should've [F] said no, [Gb] someone's waiting for [F] me
So now you want my girl?
[Eb] [Bbm] I'm sorry!
I'm sorry, [F] just wanna tell you don't [Db] worry
I will be late, [Ebm] don't stay up and [Bbm] wait for me
I said, can you [F] go and drive me [Gb] now, my [Db] battery is low
Just so you know, we're [Eb] going to a [Bb] place nearby, gotta go
You just run up and spin one clock and [F] take it back when stunting is [Bb] done
And all of my friends found [Eb] out that [F] she wasn't the [Bbm] only one
And it eats me from [F] inside, she's not by [Gb] my [C] side
[F] And I'm [E] in [Bbm] that golden light
I'm sorry, [F] just wanna tell you don't worry
[Db] I will be late, don't [Ebm] stay up [Bbm] and wait for me
I said, can you [F] go and drive me [Gb] now, my [Ab] battery [Db] is low
Just so you know, [Gb] we're going [Eb] to a [Bb] place nearby, gotta go
[Bbm] [F]
[Db] [Ebm]
[Gb] [F]
[Ebm] [Db] [Gb] [Fm]
[Db] [Gbm] [F] [C] [A] [D]
[C] [Cm] Let me tell you a story about [G] the call that changed my destiny
[Eb] We got my boy with no [Fm] trust to [G] end up in [Cm] misery
I said, go home when that she [G] was in, didn't [Ab] make fun [Bb] of me
[Eb] I said, hi, I [Gm] got [Eb] a little place nearby, [C] gotta go
Listen baby, I'm [G] sorry, just wanna tell you don't worry
[Eb] I will be late, don't [Fm] stay up [Cm] and wait for me
I said, can you go [G] and drive me now, [Ab] my [Bb] battery [Eb] is low

I said, can you go [G] and drive me now, [Bb] my battery [Eb] is low
Just so you know, [G] we're going to [Eb] a place [Ab] nearby
We're going to [F] a place [C] nearby, gotta go
