Walkaway Joe Trisha Yearwood
[C]Momma told her baby, girl take it real slow
Girl told her momma hey I really gotta go
He's w[Dm]aitin' in the c[F]ar
Momma said g[Dm]irl you won't get f[F]ar[G]
T[C]hus are the dreams of an average Jane
Ninety miles an hour down a lovers lane
On a t[Dm]ank of dre[F]ams Oh if she could've [Dm]only s[F]een
But fa[G]te's got cards that [F]it don't want to show A[G]nd that boy's just
CHORUS:
A w[F]alkaway J[C]oe Born to be a leaver
Tell you from the word go, destined to deceive her
He's a wr[F]ong kinda parad-[Bb]ise
1.& 2.)She's gonna k[C]now it in a matter of t[G]ime
3.) But it was just another lesson in life
That b[F]oy's just a wa[G]lkway J[C]oe
[C]Now just a little while into Abilene
[C]Pulls into a station and he robs it clean
She's w[Dm]aitin' in the c[F]ar Underneath the T[Dm]exaco s[F]tar[G]
[C]She only wanted love didn't bargain for this
[C]She can't help but love him for the way he is.
She's o[Dm]nly sevente[F]en And there ain't no [Dm]reasoni[F]ng
[G]So she'll ride this ride as f[F]ar as it can go C[G]ause that boy's just
go to chorus, to lead, to third verse
[C]Somewhere in a roadside motel room
[C]Alone in the silence she wakes up too soon
And re[Dm]aches for his a[F]rm But she'll just keep re[Dm]achin' [F]on
[G]For the cold hard truth rev[F]ealed what it had known T[G]hat boy's just
go to chorus.
