Jimmy, please say [A] you'll wait for me [A] I'll grow up [D] someday, you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for you [A] Signed with love [D] forever true
Joanie was the girl [A] who lived next door I've known her, I guess, [D] ten years or more
Joanie wrote me [G] a note one day [A] And this is what she had [D] to say
Jimmy, please say [A] you'll wait for me I'll grow [D] up someday, you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for you [A] Signed with love [D] forever true
Slowly I read [A] her note once more Then I went over [D] to the house next door
Her teardrops fell [G] like rain that day [A] When I told Joanie what I had [D] to say
Joanie, Joanie, [A] please don't cry You'll forget me [D]
by and by
You're just fifteen, [Em] I'm [G] twenty-two [A] And Joanie, I just can't wait [D] for you
Soon I left [A] our little hometown Got me a job [D] and tried to settle down
But these words kept haunting [G] my memory [A] The words that Joanie said [D] to me
Jimmy, please say [A] you'll wait for me I'll grow up [D] someday, you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for you [A] Signed with love [D] forever true
I packed my clothes [A] and I caught a plane I had to see Joanie, [D] I had to explain
How my heart was filled with [G] her memory [A] And asked my Joanie if she'd marry [D] me
I ran all the way to [A] the house next door [A] But things weren't like [D] they were before
My teardrops fell [G] like rain that day When [A] I heard what Joanie had [D] to say
Jimmy, Jimmy, [A] please don't cry You'll forget [D] me by and by
It's been five years [G] since you've been gone And Jimmy, I married [A] your best friend, [D] John
