Standing In For Joe
I'm standing...[Dsus4]
[A]Stan[Asus4]ding i[A]n [Asus4]for Jo[A]e
Jo[D]e called round to ask me
[F#m]Would I do a favor
[G]While he's g[D]onna be o[A]ut of town[Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[A]Said his girl needs [D]company
She g[F#m]ets so restless
[G]Would I [D]keep her s[A]afe and sound[Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[D]Softly softly [E]in the night

Well you can guess the rest
[A]Now these shoes fit a[D]ll too well

I'm standing in for Joe
[A]Joe said we've been friends so long[D]
[F#m]That I would be the one[G]
He would[D] trust with his li[A]fe[Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[A]Now those words run round my brain[D]
As darkn[F#m]ess falls
As I tur[G]n out his [D]bedroom light[A] [Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[D]Who could resist her tender charms[E]

[F#m]Would I do a favor
[G]While he's g[D]onna be o[A]ut of town[Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[A]He says his girl nee[D]ds company
She g[F#m]ets so restless
[G]Would I [D]check that[A] she?s safe and sound[Asus4] [A] [Asus4] [A]
[D]Softly softly [E]in the night
F#m F (bass notes EDCBAGF)
Well you can guess the rest
