Cm / Cm / A# / Gm

Cm                     A#

D                  G
Just you wait and see

G#m                                   F#            D#
Every night the same old dream I hate to close my eyes
G#m                                   F#       D#
I can't erase the memory the sound of Julie's cries
G#m
She called me up late that night she said :
F#                 D#
Joe, don't come over
G#m
My Dad and I just had a fight
F#                       D#
And he stormed out the door
       B
I've never seen him act this way,
    A                 E
My God, he's goin' crazy
C#m                  B
He said he's gonna make you pay
A                     G#
For what we've done, he's got a gun!
C#m           B        C#m
So run, Joey run, Joey run

C#m                    B
Daddy please don't it wasn't his fault
D                     A
He means so much to me
F#m                   C#m
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get married
D#7                G#
Just you wait and see

Am
Got in my car and I drove like mad
G                   E
Til I reached Julie's place
Am                                          G             E
She ran to me, with tear-filled eyes and bruises on her face
Am                             G            E
All at once I saw him there sneaking up behind me (watch-out!)
Am
Then Julie yelled, "He's got a gun!"
            G                 E
And she stepped in front of me
  C          Am                A#              F
Suddenly, a shot rang out and I saw Julie falling
  Dm               C
I ran to her, I held her close
A#                             A
When I looked down, my hands were red
Dm                    C            Dm
And here's the last words Julie said

Dm                    C
Daddy please don't it wasn't his fault
D#                  A#
He means so much to me
Gm                   F
Daddy please don't, we're gonna get mar-ried...

Am         G         Am
Run, Joey run, Joey run
      G        Am
Joey run, Joey run
      G        Am
Joey run, Joey run
