Martha - guitar chords and comments
Lyrics without distraction HERE
From 1973 Elektra album "Closing Time". His first album, and his most busker-friendly one: material and performance not so very nightclub-like, music not too much inspired by jazz, blues and ridiculous rythms - and his vocals still sound like coming from THIS side of hell :-DG D7 G D7 Em D7 C operator number please it's been so many years G D7 G D7 Em D C she'll remember my old voice while I fight the tears G E7 Am D7 G E7 Am ...D7 hello hello there is this Martha ? this is ol' Tom Frost G E7 Am D7 Em D C I am calling long distance don't worry about the cost G E7 Am D7 G E7 Am ...D7 it's been fourteen years or more now Martha please recall G E7 Am D Em D C and meet me out for coffee where we'll talk about it all G C G C and those were days of roses of poetry and prose Am C Am D G ...D7 and Martha all I had was you and all you had was me G C G C there was no tomorrow we packed away our sorrows Am C D G and we saved them for a rainy day
