Jos Lament

G                     Em
I stayed away so long Jo
    G                          Em
Don't think that I could come back
     G                          Em
You're doin' so well without me girl
    G                 D                G
You'd laugh if you'd know'd where I'm at

G                                Em
You knew me when it was all my world
  G                         Em
Somehow it's all passed me by
   G                               Em
But don't let on to my friends Jo dear
     G              D               G
That things ain't turned out as planned
      C                   G
You bore my child then I left you aside
      G                  Em
I don't expect you to forgive
     G                           Em
But Jo I can say in a funny old way
    G             D         G
I was sure that I had it made


G                         Em
I still possess a photograph
 G               Em
My memory to refresh
    G                    Em
But fade it may Jo I can say
     G            D         G
I was sure that I had it made

      C                   G
You bore my child then I left you aside
       G                 Em
I don't expect you to forgive
      G                               C6
But now I'm not so young and I'm so afraid
    G                   D          G
To sleep alone for the rest of my days
