Walkaway Joe by Trisha Yearwood Lyrics Chords

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[C] Mama told her, baby girl, take it real slow
Girl told her mama, hey, I really gotta go
[Em] He's waiting in the car
_ [C] [Em] Mama said, girl, [F] you won't get far
[C] _ _ [F] _
_ [C] Thus are the dreams of an average Jane
Ninety miles an hour down a lover's lane
[G] [Am] On a tank of [B] dreams
[Am] Oh, [Em] if she [F] could have [C] only seen _
That [G] fate's got cards and [Dm] it don't [C] want to [F] show
[C] Then _ [G] _
that boy's just [C] a walk away joke
Born to be a [G] leaver, tell [Am] you from the word go
_ [C] Destined to deceive her, [F] he's the wrong kind of [Bb] paradise _
[F] She's gonna know it in a [C] matter [G] of time
That boy's [C] just a walk away joke _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [C] Now just a little while into _ Abilene
Pulls into a station and he robs it clean
[Am] She's waiting in the car _ _
Oh, underneath the [F] Texaco star _
She [C] only wanted love, didn't bargain for this
She can't help but love him for the way he is
[Am] She's only seventeen _
And there [F] ain't no _ _ reasoning
So [G] she'll ride this ride [Dm] as far [C] as it [F] can go
_ [G] _
Cause that [C] boy's just a walk away joke
Born to be a leaver, tell you from the word go _
Destined to deceive her, he's [F] the wrong kind of [Bb] paradise
_ [F] She's gonna know it in [C] a [G] matter of time
That [C] boy's just a walk away joke _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [B] _ [Am] _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] Somewhere in a roadside motel room
Alone in the silence, she wakes up too soon
And reaches for his arm
_ But she'll [F] just keep [C] reaching [F] on
_ [C] For [G] the cold hard truth [Dm] revealed what [Em] it [F] had known
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
That boy's [C] just a walk away joke
Born to be [G] a leaver, tell you from the [C] word go
[Am] Destined to deceive her, [F] he's the wrong kind of _ [Bb] paradise
But [F] it was just another [G] listening lie
That boy [C] was a walk away joke _
_ Mmm, [Am] yeah
All he [Em] was [C] was a walk away _ joke
_ Ooh, _ _ [Em] _ [Am] _ _
[Em] _ _ [G] _ [C] _ [F] a joke
[C] _
He [Am] was a walk away joke _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Em] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
