2. Joey, honey, I've got the money.
All is forgiven. Listen, listen.
And if I seem to be confused,
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you said I scared you, well,
I guess you scared me too.
But we got lucky once before,
and I don't wanna close the door.
And if you're somewhere out there
passed out on the floor, oh Joey,
I'm not angry any more
3. And if I seem to be confused,
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you said I scared you, well,
I guess you scared me too.
But if it's love you're looking for,
then I can give a little more.
And if you're somewhere broken,
passed out on the floor, oh Joey,
I'm not angry any more,
angry any more,
angry any more.chords:

This is what I have figured out watching this song on MTV. I
don't think this is totally right, but sounds pretty good to me. As
usual, any comments, suggestions and corrections are welcome. Send them
to bsiu@ing.puc.cl.
The C chord sounds better as C/G (332010).
C Am C G
Joey, baby - don't get crazy
C Am C Em
Detours, fences...I get defensive
G Em
I know you've heard it all before
G Em
So I don't say it anymore
C
I just stand by and let you
Am (or G?)
Fight your secret war
G Em
And though I used to wonder why
G Em
I used to cry till I was dry
C Am (or G?)
Still sometimes I get a strange pain inside
C D Em
Oh, Joey, if you're hurting so am I
Joey, honey - I got some money
All is forgiven. Listen, listen
But if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you said I scared you
Well I guess you scared me too
But we got lucky once before
And I don't want to close the door
And if you're somewhere out there
Passed out on the floor
Oh Joey, I'm not angry anymore
And if I seem to be confused
I didn't mean to be with you.
And when you said I scared you
Well I guess you scared me too
But if it's love you're looking for
Then I can give a little more
And if you're somewhere drunk and
Passed out on the floor
Oh Joey, I'm not angry anymore
Angry anymore, angry anymore

Band: Concrete Blonde
Song Name: Joey
A really catchy tune.....real easy to play too! This was the
first song that I could play along with. Just the chords so far
though......still practicing my ass off though.
I dont know how to do all this "tab writing" yet....so I can
just spill out the chords along with the lyrics so you dont get lost.
Enjoy.
I would appreciate any feedback that you all might have.
Positive or negative or whatever......and could somebody write to me
and show me how to read those tab things?
I'd appreciate it greatly!
Later,
Michael
you can reach me at evbabe6@hotmail.com
Enjoy the "tab"!
