---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello in There - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Dave S. Email: prime-prine@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard (CAPO 5th Fret) G Am D7 We had an apartment in the city, G Am D7 Me and Loretta liked living there. Bm C Well its been years since the kids had grown, G D A life of their own left us alone. G Am D7 John and Linda live in Omaha, G Am D7 And Joe is somewhere on the road. Bm C We lost Davy in the Korean war, G D And I still don't know what for don't matter anymore. Chorus: F G Ya know that old trees just grow stronger, F G And old rivers grow wilder every day. Bm C Old people just grow lonesome G D G Waiting for someone to say Hello in there, hello. G Am D7 Me and Loretta we don't talk much more, G Am D7 She sits and stares through the back door screen. Bm C And all the news just repeats itself G D Like some forgotten dream that we've both seen. G Am D7 Someday I'll go and call up Rudy, G Am D7 We worked together at the factory. Bm C But what could I say if asks What's new G D Nothing, what's with you? Nothing much to do. (Repeat Chorus) G Am D7 So if you're walking down the street sometime G Am D7 And spot some hollow ancient eyes, Bm C Please don't just pass them by and stare G D G As if you didn't care, say Hello in there, hello Chords: GADBCDF e|---3---|---0---|---2---|---2---|---0---|---2---|---1---| B|---0---|---1---|---1---|---3---|---1---|---3---|---1---| G|---0---|---2---|---2---|---4---|---0---|---2---|---2---| D|---0---|---2---|---0---|---0---|---2---|---0---|---3---| A|---2---|---0---|-------|-------|---3---|-------|---3---| E|---3---|-------|-------|-------|-------|-------|---1---|
