Kristofferson Kris - Jody and the Kid guitar tab

A/ A/ E/

She would meet me in the morning

A/ E7/

On my way down to the river

A7/ A7/ E7/ E/

Waiting patient by the chant of every tree

A7/ E7/

With her feet already dusty

A7/ E7/

From the pathway to the levi

A7/ E7/ A/

And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees

Verse 2:

A

I'd pay her no attention

As she tagged along beside me

D

Trying hard to copy everything i did

E7

But i couldn't keep from smiling

E

When i hear somebody saying

A

Lucky under there goes Jody and the kid

Verse 3:

A

Even after we grew older

We can still be seen together

E7

As we walked along the levi holding hands

For as surely as the season she was changin' to a woman

A

And i lived enough to call myself a man

Verse 4:

A

And she often lay beside me

In the coolness of the evening

A7 D

Til' the morning sun was shining on my bed

E7

And on times when she was sleeping

E

I would smile and i'd remember

A

How they use to call us Jody and the kid

Verse 5:(half a tone higher)

Bb

Now the words are a little older

And the years have changed the river

Bb7 Eb

Cause now they're houses where they didn't used to be

F7

And on Sundays i go walking

F

Down the pathway to the levi

Bb

With another little girl who follows me

Verse 6:

Bb

And it makes the ole folks smile

To see her tag along beside me

F7

Doing little things the way her mama did

F7/

But it gets a little lonesome

F7/

When i hear somebody sayin'

Bb

Lucky under there goes Jody and the kid
