Wait A Bit Joe

Lời bài hát kèm hợp âm cùng dòng

[Verse 1]
[C]Whe[E]n I[G][C][F][G][C]
was quite a [Am]tiny lad,
my [Dm]nurse rehearsed [C]me
in [F]a set routine [G]of good and [C]bad.
[F]When I g[Dm]rew up, my par[F]ents would unduly
emphasize [Am]the [Em]gulf between the bad a[B]nd g[Em]ood.
[F]Aware that love could pro[C]ve
a most [G]destructive force,
[F]I try to steer a[Dm] middle
[G]course.
There's [Am]a ri[C]ght way and a wr[Am]ong way.
[D]There's a wea[Dm]k way[G] and a s[Bbdim]trong way[A].
Take it [Am]easy, drive with [D]caution
when the road is greasy.
[C]Wait a [F]bit, wait a [G]bit, [C]Joe.
[Em]There's an [B]old way [C]and a [Am]new way.
[D]There's a fal[Dm]se way[G]
and a true [C]way.[G]
[C]Keep your ears [D]back
and you'll never have to
fight [Dm]the tears back.
[C]Wait a bit, wai[F]t a bit, don[C]'t.
Nev[Em]er trust your consc[F]ience
as a [Em]method of defense
when old Adam [B]bottles up inside.
[Em]On m[B]ature [Em]reflection
[F]you will find
that [Em]common sense
[C]is a [G]far more service[D]able [G]guide.
There's [C]a wrong life and a [Am]right life,
[D]there's a home lif[Dm]e
[G]and a night lif[Em]e,[A]
but whichever [D]direc[G]tion you [Am]go,
[Dm]wait a bit, [G]wait a [C]bit,[G][Dm]
[F]There's [C]a right way and a wro[Am]ng way,
[D]The[Dm]re's a short way
[G]and a [C]long way,
[Am]Let your hair down,
But before [D]the thrill begins to wear down,
Wait a bit, [G]wait a [C]bit, Joe.
[Em]There's a [B]dull [C]way and a [Am]smart way,
[D]There's a h[Dm]ead way
[G]and a [C]heart way,
[A]Love [Am]may fret you,
but before [D]you let the goblins get you,
a bit, [C]wait a bit, Joe.
[B]Try to kee[Em]p your bal[B]ance
and en[Em]deavor to create a design
for living at your [C]ease.
If you're [Em]over [B]-eager
and go [Em]snapping [B]at the [Em]bait,
[G]you may end by giving at the knees.
There's a [C]last love and a [Am]first love
[D]There's a [G]best love and a [A]worst [Bbdim]love
[A]If you [D]don't want to [Dm]lose
[Em]on the t[Am]hrow
[Ebdim]Wait a bi[Dm]t, wait a bi[Em]t,
[F]wait a bit, [Em]wait a bit
[Dm]Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe,
wait just a little bit, Joe
