Dont Cry Joni
Conway Twitty
D
Chorus
C Em Jimmy please say you'll wait for me G C I'll grow up someday you'll see C (G) F Saving all my kisses just for you G C Signed with love forever true (Just repeat the chord sequence again, again, again...) (Actually, the song was originally in D major...I transposed it down my a whole tone to C major 'cos it's to recognise the chords in C maj...so if you want the original pitch, I'll show the D major chords for the stanza. Edit intro accordingly.)
Verse
D F#m Joni was the girl who lived next door A D I've known her I guess ten years or more D (A) G Joni wrote me a note one day A D And this is what she had to say (Choose which major you'll like to play in! The rest of the lyrics:)
Chorus
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up some day you'll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
Verse
Slowly I read her note once more Then I went over to the house next door Her teardrops fell like rain that day When I told Joni what I had to say
Chorus
Joni Joni please don't cry You'll forget me by and by You're just 15 I'm 22 And Joni I just can't wait for you
Verse
Soon I left our little hometown Got me a job and try to settle down But these words kept pounding my memory The words that Joni said to me
Chorus
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up some day you'll see Saving all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true
Verse
I packed my clothes and I caught a plane I had to see Joni I had to explain How my heart was filled with her memories And ask my Joni if she'd marry me I ran all the way to the house next door But things weren't like they were before My teardrops fell like rain that day When I heard what Joni had to say
Chorus
Jimmy Jimmy please don't cry You'll forget me by and by It's been five years since you've been gone Jimmy I've married your best friend John
