Vers 1: D A E
We hear you're leaving, that's OK,

but if you have a change of heart,

Chorus:
E7 G
Rikki don't lose that number, you don't wanna call nobody else,
A G D
send it off in a letter, to yourself,

Rikki don't lose that number, it's the only one you own,

you might use it if you feel better, when you get home.

Vers 2: D A E
I have a friend in town, he's heard your name,
