_ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Jimmy please say [A] you'll wait for me _ I'll grow up [D] someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for you [A] Signed with love forever _ true
_ _ _ _ [G] [D] Joni was the [A] girl who lived next door I've known her I guess [D] ten years or more
Joni wrote me [G] a note one day And this is what she had [D] to say _
_ _ _ _ Jimmy please say [A] you'll wait for me I'll grow up [D] someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for you Signed with love forever [D] true _
_ _ _ _ Slowly I [A] read her note once more Then I went over [D] to the house next door
Her teardrops fell [G] like rain that day When [A] I told Joni what I had [D] to say _
_ _ _ _ _
Joni [A] Joni please don't cry _ You forget [D] me by and by
You're just fifteen [G] I'm twenty-two [A] Joni I just can't wait [D] for you _
_ _ _ _ Soon I left [A] our little hometown Got me a job and [D] tried to settle down
But her words kept haunting my [G] _ memory [A] The words that Joni said [D] to me
_ _ _ _ _
Jimmy please say [A] you'll wait for _ me I'll grow up [D] someday you'll see
Saving all my kisses [G] just for _ [A] you Signed with love [D] forever true _
_ _ _ _ I packed my clothes and [A] I caught a plane I had to see Joni [D] I had to explain
How my heart was filled with [G] her memory [A] And asked my Joni if she'd [D] marry me _
_ _ _ _ I ran all the way [A] to the house next door But things went like [D] they were before
My teardrops fell [G] like rain that day [A] When I heard what Joni had [D] to say
_ _ _ _ _
Jimmy Jimmy [A] please don't cry You'll forget [D] me by and by
It's been five years [G] since you've been gone [A] Jimmy I married your best [D] friend Jon
