(A)
She would (A) meet me in the mornin'
On my (A) way down to the river
Waiting (A) patient by the chantaberry (Bm) tree (E7)
With her (Bm) feet already (E7) dusty
From the (Bm) pathway to the (E7) levee
And her (Bm) little blue jeans (E7) rolled up to her (A) knees
I'd (A) pay her no at- (Amaj7) tention
As she (A6) tagged along be- (A) side me
Trying (Em) hard to copy (A) everything I (D) did
But I (Bm) couldn't keep from (E) smiling
When I (Bm) hear somebody (E) saying
Look (Bm) yonder, there goes (E) Jody and the (A) kid
(A) (Amaj7) (A6) (A)
Even (A) after we grew (Amaj7) older
We can (A6) still be seen to- (A) gether
As we (A) walked along the levee holding (Bm) hands (E)
For as (Bm) surely as the (E) seasons, she was (Bm) changin' to a (E) woman
And I (Bm) lived enough to (E) call myself a (A) man
And she (A) often lay be- (Amaj7) side me
In the (A6) coolness of the (A) evening
Til' the (Em) morning sun was (A) shining on my (D) bed
And in (Bm) times when she was (E) sleeping
I would (Bm) smile and I'd re- (E) member
How they (Bm) used to call us (E) Jody and the (A) kid
(Amaj7) (A6) (F)
Now the (A#) world's are a little older
And the (A#) years have changed the river
Cause there's houses where they didn't used to (Cm) be (F)
And on (Cm) Sundays I go (F) walking
Down the (Cm) pathway to the (F) levee
With a- (Cm) nother little (F) girl who follows (A#) me
And it (A#) makes the old folks (A#maj7) smile
To see her (A#6) tag along (A#) beside me
Doing (Fm) little things the (A#) way her mama (D#) did
But it (Cm) gets a little (F) lonesome
When I (Cm) hear somebody (F) sayin'
Look (Cm) yonder, there goes (F) Jody and the (A#) kid
(A#maj7) (A#6) (A#) (A#) (A#maj7) (A#6)
