Singing Joy to the World Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]He got lonely every time the cantina lights
[Am]came up on the [C]Indian Casino [G]Queen[C]
Cause he'd loved [G]her from the time she'd been the [Am]waitress
at the Mexic[C]an place where he'd left his [D]keys

[Verse 2]
[D]
She'd been there [G]smil[Am]ing
at the lost and [G]found
Then he [C]took her to [Em]see
Three [Bm]Dog Night
They [Am]were playing at the fair grounds
Holding hands singing "Joy
to [G]the World"[C]
[G]

[Verse 3]
She was way [D]too [C]young but
he did [G]not [D]care[G][Em]
[A]He was all right with cashing in[C][Am]
[Asus4]a few fin[A]e moments before his[Am]
[C]broken heart kicked in

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]He died a little bit each time
[Am]the night came in
And [C]the stars fell over Michigan
[G][C]
[G]'Cause he'd loved her at the bar
when he saw her dan[Am]cing to
"I Could Never [C]Take the Place
of Your Man"
[D]

[Verse 5]
Then he'd come [Am]over to his usual [G]spot
Soon they were [C]making out [Em]at[Bm]
3AM in [A]the empty [Am]parking lot
They lay together under
the burnt out [G]stars
[Em][G]

[Verse 6]
She never loved him [D]back
[C]It wasn't eve[G]n clo[D]se[Em][Asus4]
[A]But he was fine to just [C]pretend
[A]That it was never gonna end[Asus4][C]
[A]And it was worth it just to [C]know
[A]A little warmth before the[C] snow
