[JODY AND THE KID by Kris Kristofferson
[Intro]
D Dmaj7 D6 D
[Verse 1]
D
She would meet me in the morning on my way down to the river
Em A7
Waiting patient by the chinaberry tree
Em A7 Em A7
With her feet already dusty from the pathway to the levee
Em A7 D
And her little blue jeans rolled up to her knees
[Chorus]
D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
And I'd pay her no attention as she tagged along beside me
D Dmaj7 G
Trying hard to copy everything I did
Em A7 Em A7
But I couldn't keep from smiling when I'd hear somebody saying
Em A7 D Dmaj7 D6 D
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
[Verse 2]
D
Even after we grew older we could still be seen together
Em A7
As we walked along the levee holding hands
Em A7 Em A7
For as surely as the seasons she was changing to a woman
Em A7 D
And I lived enough to call myself a man
[Chorus 2]
Dmaj7 D Dmaj7 D
And she often lay beside me in the coolness of the evening
Dmaj7 D G
Till the morning sun was shining on my bed
Em A7 Em A7
And at times when she was sleeping I would smile when I'd remember
Em A7 D Dmaj7 D6 D
How they used to call us Jody and the kid
[Verse 3]
D
Now the world's a little older and the years have changed the river
D Em A7
Cause there are houses where they didn't used to be
Em A7 Em A7
And on Sundays I go walking down the pathway to the levee
Em A7 D
With another little girl who follows me
[Chorus 3]
D Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
And it makes the old folks smile to see her tag along beside me
D Dmaj7 Em A7
Doing little things the way her mamma did
[Outro Slowly]
Em A7 Em A7
But it gets a little lonesome when I hear somebody saying
Em A7 D Dmaj7 D6 D
Looky yonder there goes Jody and the kid
