     "Timothy"

     (Rupert Holmes)

Intro:

Am   G/B     D           [2x]

/  /  /  /   /  /  /  /

Verse 1:

Am           G/B        D

Trapped in a mine that had caved in

   Fmaj7 [x33210]       G6 [x55430]

And everyone knows the only ones left

     Dm7 [x57565]     G       D

Were Joe          and me and Tim

When they broke through to pull us free

The only ones left to tell the tale

Were Joe          and me

Chorus 1:

C        Bm7      Fmaj7                  Am

Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?

C        Bm7      Fmaj7            Am   G/B   D

Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?

Verse 2:

Hungry as hell no food to eat

And Joe said that he would sell his soul

For just   a piece   of meat

Water enough to drink for two

And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig

And then   there's some   for you."

Chorus 2:

Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you

Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?

Verse 3:

I must have blacked out just around then

'Cause the very next thing that I could see

Was the light of the day again

My stomach was full as it could be

And nobody ever got around

To finding   Timothy

[repeat chorus 1]

Coda:

Am     G/B    D

Timothy... [repeat to fade]
