No New Year`s day, to cele - brate,
Cmaj7/G C Dm
No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away.
DmM7 Dm DmM7 Dm7
No first of spri-ing, no song to sing,
DmM7 Dm Dm7 G4 G C C
In fact here`s just another ordi- nary day.
C Cmaj7/G C
No April rain, no flowers bloom,
Cmaj7/G C Dm
No wedding Saturday within the month of June.
DmM7 Dm DmM7 Dm7
But what it i- is, is something true,
DmM7 Dm Dm7 G4 G C C
Made up of these three words that I must say to you.
Dm G C C
I just called to say I love you,
Dm G Am Am
I just called to say how much I care.
Dm G Am Am
I just called to say I love you,
Dm7 G4 G C C
And I mean it from the bottom of my heart.
C Cmaj7/G C
No summer`s high, no warm July,
Cmaj7/G C Dm
No harvest moon to light one tender August night.
DmM7 Dm DmM7 Dm7
No autumn breeze, no falling leaves,
DmM7 Dm G4 G C C
Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies.
C Cmaj7/G C
No Libra Sun, no Hallo - ween,
Cmaj7/G C Dm
No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring.
DmM7 Dm DmM7 Dm7
But what it i-i-i-is, though old, so new.
DmM7 Dm Dm7 G4 G C C
To fill your heart like no three words could ever do.
