D He was driving home one evening in his beat up Poniac
when an old lady flagged him down her Mercedes had a
flat. A He could tell that she was frightened standing
out there in the snow till he said I'm here to help
you ma'am, A7 by the way my names D Joe. She said I'm from
St. Louis and I'm only passing threw I must of seen a
hundred cars go by this is awfull nice of you A and as
he changed her tire and closed her trunk and was about
to drive away she said how much do I owe you A7 here's
what he had to D say:
(chorus)
You don't owe me a thing, I been there too. Someone
A once helped me out just the D way I'm helping you. If
you G really want to pay me back, D here's what you G do:
Don't let the chain of love end with you.
D A few miles down the road the lady saw a small cafe,
she went in to grab a bite to eat and then be on her
way, A but she couldn't help but notice how the waitress
smiled so sweet. And how she must of been eight months
along and A7 dead on her D feet. Though she didn't know her
story and she probably never will, when the waitress
went to get her change from a hundred dollar bill. A The
lady slipped right out ther door and on a napkin left
a note there were tears in the waitress eyes when she
A7 read what she D wrote.
(Chorus)
D That night when she got home from work the waitress
climbed into bed she was thinking about the money and
what the lady's note had said. A And as her husband lie
there sleeping she whispered soft and low.
Everything's gonna be alright. I love you, Joe.
*Tip* The song CAN be played by using the A7 chord at
the " I love you" part but I don't play it that way.
