 Intro:  |bb eb9 |bb eb9 |bb eb9 |bb eb9 |

 |g-7      |g-7	       |d-7	      |d-7		 |

 Julie and little john tyler	lived in the   house next door

 G-7 d-7		 |g-7	   d-7	|e-7b5	       |eb-j7  |

 We would be the great triangle and to this we swore

 D-		  |ebj7      |bb      d-/a	 |g-	 |

 Julie was my sweetheart, little john was my cohort

 C	  /bb	      |/a	     /g   |f		    |f	   |

 And all the wild horses in the world couldn't keep us apart

 Gb		     |gb		 |bb  ebadd2 |bb  ebadd2

 Once we went for a swim in the noonday sun

 |gb 	       |gb		      |bb  ebadd2 |bb  ebadd2 |

 And promised to return before the moon struck one

 Bb  ebadd2 |bb  ebadd2 ||gb |gb |eb-7 |eb-7 ||

 

 Julie came running through the pasture--she was screaming at the sky

 She fell down to her knees and the tears did fly

 Little john was stung by a snake over by the lake

 And it looked like he s really, really hurt--he was lying in the dirt

 Who, we went it as fast as we could run

 |bb  ebadd2 |bb  ebadd2 |

 But we lost little john as the moon struck one

 Bb  ebadd2 |bb  ebadd2 ||gb |gb |eb-7 |eb-7

 

 I was vacant, julie was a bird with a broken wing

 We were always afraid of what tomorrow might bring

 We'll drive down to durango--up and leave this place

 And maybe forget the triangle with a change of pace

 The car broke down when we had just begun

 |bb ebadd2 |

 And we walked back to the house while the moon struck one

 Bb ebadd2 |[7x] then g-7
