Betty Called Me In

[INTRO:] C

[VERSE 1:]
              Dm7           F     
Betty Jo, you made it plain, when 
          C
first you held me near
                Dm7             F 
Even though you caused me pain, 
               G
you were all the world to me
C                D             
We made love, we had such fun, 
Dm                  C      Dm7
many fine times went by us
Now it's all so hazy and a little 
           C
bit crazy
             D                
Betty Jo, my heart's on fire, I 
Dm                C       Dm7
don't need this crying
The next time you see me, in the 
                                 C 
back seat of a taxi's where I'll be
    F



[VERSE 2:]
                G             C
Betty called me in to say goodnight
F            G               C
Much to my relief and pure delight
                    C7
I think that was my big love scene
  F              G            C  
I do believe her engine run 
      F
alright

[VERSE 3:]
               G                  
Betty said get ready the time has 
C
come
F                  G          
I was young and my good life had 
     C
begun
                      C7         
And with the dawn the child in me 
     F
was gone
             G                 
Betty made a man out of me that 
 C        F  G  F
night


[VERSE 4:]
              G                    
Betty made my clothes and sewed my 
C
jeans
F              G                  
Listening to my songs and foolish 
C
schemes
                    C7
I think the way she got to me
         F                 G  
It would seem like a laser beam 
               C       F  G
right to the soul


[VERSE 5:]
F                   G            
Betty my true love, do what you 
    C
do tonight
F                G           
Where she goes I hope she knows 
         C
she's right
                           C7
The worst of times and the best of 
times
        F                 G       
She was never the kind to kick and
           C
 bitch and fight

And with the dawn the child in me 
     F
was gone

night

I do believe her engine run alright
