Kristofferson Kris — Hello In There

    	    	Вступление

[Verse 1]
G           C               D
We had an apartment in the city.
G        C                    D
Me and Loretta liked living there.
Bm                         C
It's been years since the kids have grown,
        G             D
a life of their own, left us alone.

[Verse 2]
G         C             D
John and Linda live in Omaha.
G         C              D
Joe is somewhere on the road.
Bm                   C
We lost Davy in the Korean war.
               G                          D
I still don't know what for, don't matter anymore.

[Chorus]
F                         G
You know old trees just grow stronger,
 F                        G  
old rivers grow wilder every day,
Bm                   C
old people, ust grow lonesome
            G
waiting for someone to say,
  D              G - C - G - C
"Hello in there. Hello"

[Verse 3]
G           C               D
Me and Loretta, we don't talk much now.
G             C               D          
She sits and stares through the backdoor screen.
Bm                         C
And all the news just repeats itself
G                        D
Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen.

[Verse 4]
G         C           D
Someday I'll go and call up Rudy.
G       C             D    
We worked together at the factory.
Bm                         C
Ah, but what would I say when she asks what's new?
G                           D
"Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do."

[Chorus]
F                              G
You know  old trees just grow stronger,
         F                     G  
and old rivers grow wilder every day,
Bm                          C
but old people,  just grow lonesome
            G
waiting for someone to say,
  D                G - C - G - C
"Hello in there. Hello"

[Verse 5]
G             C                D
So if you're walking down the street sometime
 G        C      D
spot some hollow vacant eyes,
Bm               C
please don't just pass them by and stare
           G
as if you didn't care.
        D               G
Say, "Hello in there. Hello."
