[C] No New Year’s [C]day, to celebrate, No [C]chocolate covered candy hearts to give [Dm]away. [Dm]No first of spring, no song to sing, [Dm]In fact here’s just another [G]ordinary [C]day.

No April [C]rain, no flowers bloom, No [C]wedding Saturday within the month of [Dm]June. [Dm]But what it is, is something true, [Dm]Made up of these three words that [G]I must say to [C]you.

I just [Dm]called to [G]say I [C]love you, I just [Dm]called to [G]say how much I [Am]care. I just [Dm]called to [G]say I [Am]love you, And I [Dm]mean it from the [G]bottom of my [C]heart.

No summer’s [C]high, no warm July, No [C]harvest moon to light one tender August [Dm]night. [Dm]No autumn breeze, no falling leaves, [Dm]Not even time for birds to [G]fly to southern [C]skies.

No Libra [C]Sun, no Halloween, No [C]giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you [Dm]bring. [Dm]But what it is, though old, so new. [Dm]To fill your heart like no three [G]words could ever [C]do.

I just [D#m]called to [G#]say I [C#]love you. I just [D#m]called to [G#]say how much I [A#m]care, I do. I just [D#m]called to [G#]say I [A#m]love you. And I [D#m]mean it from the [G#]bottom of my [C#]heart.

I just [Em]called to [A]say I [D]love you. I just [Em]called to [A]say how much I [Bm]care. I just [Em]called to [A]say I [Bm]love you. And I [Em]mean it from the [A]bottom of my [D]heart.

[A#]Of my [C]heart, of my [D]heart.
