Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Will [D]You [G]Be There In
The Courtyard,
Barbara [C]Joy
Will Your [D]Honor Be Avenged
With Justice [G]Done
When they cover my head
over Barbara [C]Joy
Will you [D]hide your face in shame
for what you've [G]done?
You were always wild and reckless,
Barbara [C]dear
But I wor[D]shipped you,
my love was like a [G]fire
And your wedding was the high spot
of the so[C]cial year
But your [D]marriage left so
much to be de[G]sired
[C]Say that you weren't willing,
Barbara [D]Jo
The face you're saving
gives away your [G]sin
[C]All your husband's money
can't re[D]store his pride
Say that you were willing,
don't [G]let me [C]die[D][G]
When the phone rang
in the middle of the [C]night
Your [D]tender voice was
shaking with [G]alarm
So without a thought I
hurried to your [C]side
Only [D]thinking to protect
you from all [G]harm
You threw your arms around me,
it was [C]like a dream
And [D]what we knew was bound to happen,
[G]dear
And the doorway framed
your husband and I
[C]I heard you scream I'm un
[D]less you speak
Tomorrow I'll be [G]dead
So [C]say that you were willing
Barbara [D]Joy
The face you're saving
Gives away your [G]sin
[C]All your husband's money
Can't re[D]store his pride
Say that you were willing
Don't [G]let me die
[D]Say that you were willing
Don't [G]let me die
