G#m                                
Every night, the same old dream, I 
F#
hate to close my
D#
eyes.
  G#m                         F#  
I can't erase the memory, the 
             D#
sound of Julie's cry.
    G#m                            
She called me up, late that night, 
          F#
she said, Joe,
           D#
don't come over.
   G#m                            
My Dad and I just had a fight and he
F#
 stormed out the
D#
door!

Am                                
Got in my car, and I drove like 
       G
mad 'til I reached Julie's
E
place.
    Am                             
She ran to me, with tear filled 
      G              E
eyes and bruises on her face.
Am                         
All at once I saw him there, 
  G                  E
sneaking up behind me..(Watch out!)
     Am                      
Then Julie yelled, he's got a 
               G
gun!..and she stepped in front
   E
of me.

Suddenly, a shot rang out and I

  Dm            C                 
I ran to her, I held her 
   Bb                A
close..when I looked down, my hands
              Dm              C   
were red, and here's the last 
  A     Dm
words Julie said..
