I happened across your postings for this song and thought I'd send
a correct version because nothing you've posted so far is "fully"
correct.
The beginning section, and it gets repeated many times during the
song, is played like:
E-----0--0--0------0-----|
B----5--5--5------4-4----|
G---6--7--6------4---4---| Just repeat this whole section over
D------------------------| and over. Remember to let the notes
A------------------------| ring out.
E------------------------|
The verses/chorus simply repeat the following chords over and over:
F#min D A B
Bridge #1:
E D A B
Jenny, I got your number
E A D
I need to make you mine
E D A B
Jenny, don't change your number
Bridge #2:
C#min E F#min
I got it, I got it
A B
I got your number on the wall
C#min E
I got it, I got it
F#min A B
For a good time, for a good time call
It's a great tune and comes off well in a live situation.
Cheers,
Jeff Leveroni (jel@walker.com)

| I think this song is hilarious. Some guy finds a girl's phone number written on the wall saying "For a good time call 867-5309" and is convinced that she's his soulmate. It's great. | |

| I'm in love with a Jenny so I like the Less Than Jake version of this a lot. I don't know where I stand with her, are we even friends?! She is so beautiful, and I hate it when she ignores me. Yup, love is really confusing. | |
