This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Intro - Riff1 - Riff2
A
Long distance, last good-bye
C#
Can't give it one last try
B D Riff2
It's all over, we didn't cry
D
All I know is the world came between us
A E
and the love got left behind
D
No news flash, funeral, half mast flags
A E
On the day that our love died
F# E
I'd tell you face to face
D
If I could look you in the eye
B D Riff1
So I just called to say good-bye
A
Did you burn my pictures yet?
C#
Anything to try to forget
B D Riff2
It's all over, all I can do to stay on the line
D
All I know is the world came between us
A E
and the love got left behind
D
No news flash, funeral, half mast flags
A E
On the day that our love died
F# E
I'd tell you face to face
D
If I could look you in the eye
B D Riff1
So I just called to say good-bye
E F# D
We both know how hard it is for both of us to try
E F# D
We both know how hot it is in Texas in July
F# E
So what am I supposed to say?
D
(How's the weather anyway?)
B D Riff1
This time I called to say good-bye
A
Who'd have thought it would end like this?
C#
Without even a good-bye kiss
B D Riff1
Noone can say we didn't try
D
The years flew past, we tried to make it last
A E
But the love got left behind
D
No news flash, funeral, half-mast flags
A E
On the day that our love died
F# E
I'd tell you face to face
D
If I could look you in the eye
B D Riff2
So I just called to say good-bye
B D
I just called to say
C# F#
There's really nothing left to say, so...
B D Intro -- Riff1 -- Riff2 -- F#
I just called to say good-bye.
