Oh Joe

[Intro] Dm  C  Am  F  C

Dm                  C             Am
Running through the forest on the mossy, dirty ground
F                C          Am
Hearing all the choruses of animal sounds
     F
They sold me
     C
They sold me
       Am
To the natives and the gypsies
     F
They told me
     C
They told me
    Am
That I would not be found

Dm            C            Am
Doing all the duties for a man I hardly know
F                 C             Am
Man, his wife's a beauty with a natural glow
    F
Her flirting
    C
Her flirting
    Am
She held my coat so tightly
    F
She cursed me
    C
She cursed me
    Am
When I told her no

[Estribillo]

F C
Oh Joe
Dm           Am
Watch it all unfold
F C
Oh Joe
      Dm    Am
You're not alone

Dm             C               Am
Locked up in a prison for some wayward woman's lies
F            C              Am
When I met a couple of King Pharaoh's guys
     F
They told me
     C
They told me
    Am
The dreams they had so worried
  F              C
I said one would live
        Am
But the other one would die
F        Am           G
I was forgotten in my chains
F                       Am      G
But there was something greater running through my veins

Dm            C               Am
Master of the nation had some troubling dreams
F            C                 Am
Nobody could tell him what the two of them would mean
     F
They called me
     C
They called me
  Am
I said it was not in me
   F
But only
    C    Am             F C Dm Am
The Holy One would know

( F  C  Dm  Am )

[Estribillo]

F    C
Oh Joe
Dm               Am
Pulled from jail below
F        C
Tell the King my words
Dm      Am
Joe, be bold

[Puente]

     F              Am      G
For seven years, we will be blessed
      F              Am
But seven years will lead to hunger
G
Spreading east to west
    F              Am
And if you want to save the kingdom
G
Find a man to lead it
F
 With wisdom

And the King said

[Estribillo]

F   C
Oh Joe
  Dm        Am
I may be on the throne
     F         C
But you are in command
Dm       Am
Lead our land
   F
For you are that man
