Jo-el Sonnier - Come On Joe guitar chord

Come On Joe

By Jo-el Sonnier

D A

It’s a long hot night and the stars are shinin’ kinda extra bright

D A

Sittin’ on the back porch glider, whettin’ my appetite

D A

Well, I’m a six pack high, I start missin’ the light of my baby’s eyes

D (walk up to G)

Wasn’t it beautiful, the kind of soul they said would never die

G

It’s a-muggy in the shack and the backwoods are black

D A D

Cause the clouds hid the moon away

A

The light from my cigarette flickerin’ in the dark

D

Is the only way she knows I’m here

G

And suddenly the sounds of a fiddle and accordion

D A D G D A D

Sweetly begin to play and I can almost hear her sweet voice say

Chorus:

A

Come on Joe, let’s count to ten

D

Pull yourself together again

A D G D A D

Come on Joe, you gotta get over this mood you’re in

A

Come on Joe, you gotta be strong

D

You’re still young and life goes on

A D

So carry on till we’re together again

Hey, I know she’s right but it’s hard to fight when you’re hurtin’ so

I tried to walk out that door but I just can’t go

With the tears and the laughter in every rafter of every room

Wasn’t it beautiful, wasn’t it the kind of happiness in bloom

It’s a-muggy in the shack and the backwoods are black

Cause the clouds hid the moon away

The light from my cigarette flckerin’ in the dark

Is the only way she knows I’m here

And suddenly the sounds of a fiddle and accordian

Sweetly begin to play and I can almost hear her sweet voice say

Chorus
