B.J. The D.J. chords and lyrics - HUGH X. LEWIS

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Dm]A st[G]ory ab[C]out a pal of mine,
who worked down near that Georgia line,
as DJ in a little country sta[Dm]tion.
[G]Everybody loved him dear,
cause he played what they liked to hear.
He built himself up quite a reputation.
[C]At cowboy clubs he stayed out late
And his mom would always wait
To see if he had made it home alive
[Dm]She warn[G]ed against his loss of sleep
And driving fast in that old heap
That he had to be at work by [C]five
DJ, the DJ, you're living much too fast
[G]Son, if you don't change your ways,
don't see how you can [C]last[D][A]
[D]Every morning just past four,
from the driveway he would roar
Overslept and he was late [Em]again
[A]Then at breakneck speed
he'd drive to sign that station on at five
He had lots of records he [D]must spend
His mom sat by the radio
till his voice told her hello
She knew then that he'd
made it there all [Em]right
[A]Then she'd say a little prayer
he'd be safe while he was there
And she'd wait up for him again tonight
[D]Then one cold and rainy morn
All four tires were badly worn
Still he scratched off just as fast this [Em]time
B [A].J. had a lot of nerves
But he completely missed the curve
And he signed off down
near that Georgia [D]line
His mom said by the radio
The voice she heard she didn't know
B .J.'d never been this late before
[Em]But with[A] the road so bad and all
She'll wait a while before she calls
Then she heard the knock on [D]the door
B .J., the D .J., only twenty -four
[A]A wreck at 90 miles an hour,
you'll spend those hits no [D]more
A [A]wreck at 90 miles an hour,

[Outro 1]
you'll spend those hits no more
[D]
