And Joe bought all the gas in Johnny's old Ford
   G                        D            G
He always said that's what friends were for.

And tonight in this barroom he's easin' his pain

He's thinkin' of someone, but he won't say the name
D                                 G          C
Folks say he's a hero, but he'll tell you he ain't

He left the hero in the jungle back in 19 - 68.
