    Joey, baby, don‘t get crazy,

      G         Em       C           D

    detours, fences, I get defensive.

 

                               G                                       Em

1. I know you‘ve heard it all before, so I don‘t say it anymore,

                       C                                                  D

    I just stand by and let you fight your secret war.

                          G                                             Em

    And though I used to wonder why, I used to cry till I was dry,

                    C                     D                 Em

    still sometimes I get a strange pain inside.

              C                   D                  G

    Oh, Joey, if you‘re hurting, so am I.

     G         Em     C       D

    all is forgiven, listen listen !

 

                   G                                            Em

2. And if I seem to be confused, I didn‘t mean to be with you,

                             C                                                                         D

    and when you said I scared you, well, I guess you scared me, too.

                       G                                              Em

    But we got lucky once before, and I don‘t wanna close the door,

                           C                                 D                          Em

    and if you‘re somewhere out there, passed out on the floor,

            C                  D               G

    oh, Joey, I‘m not angry anymore !
