Intro 1
(D major) (D major) (D major) (D major)
Verse 1
Do you remem (D major) ber, Jody Baxter
When the (F sharp minor) whippoorwill sings
How you (G major) stole across the pasture
To the (D major) little hidden (A major) spring?
Where you (D major) laid down by the (B minor) water
(D major) On a bed (G major) of Spanish (E minor) moss (A major)
And (D major) dreamed
When wind was on the prairie
And the (F sharp minor) fire was in the stove
With the (G major) wood you had to carry
From the (D major) corner of the (A major) grove
And your (D major) daddy let you (B minor) dis appear (D major)
With all (G major) your fishing (E minor) gear (A major)
In (D major) to the cove
Chorus 1
And it was (B minor) good, good, (A major) good
But now it's (D major) gone, gone, gone (G major)
And there's a (B minor) little boy
Who's (A major) lost out in the (G major) woods
Always (E minor) looking for (D major) the fawn
Verse 2
Cause I re (D major) member, Jody Baxter
When I (F sharp minor) hid out in the corn
How the (G major) clouds were moving faster
With the (D major) coming of the storm (A major)
And I (D major) knew that I had (B minor) broken
(D major) Something (G major) I could not repair (E minor) (A major)
And I (D major) mourned
Because the field was green as Eden
Then it (F sharp minor) withered into brown
In the (G major) middle of my grieving
They (D major) came and cut it (A major) down
And I was (D major) sure that it was all (B minor) my (D major) fault
(G major) The day they mowed the (E minor) garden
(A major) To (D major) the ground
Chorus 2
What was (B minor) good, good, good (A major)
Is (D major) gone, gone, gone (G major)
And there's a (B minor) little boy
Who's (A major) lost out in the (G major) woods
Always (E minor) looking for (D major) the fawn
Bridge 1
So come (G major) back to me
Please, come (D major) back to me
Is there (B minor) any way that we can
Change (D major) the ending of this (G major) tragedy?
Or does it (A major) have to be this way?
Interlude 1
(D major) (F sharp minor) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) (F sharp minor) (G major) (D major) (A major)
Verse 3
Now I can see (D major) you, Jody Baxter
Now you're (F sharp minor) broken by the years
As you (G major) lay down in the aster
And (D major) listen for (A major) the deer
And I'm a mil (D major) lion miles a (B minor) way
But (D major) I still (G major) pray the fawn can (E minor) find (A major) me
(D major) Here
Chorus 3
Because It was (B minor) good, good, good (A major)
But now it's (D major) gone (G major)
And there's a (B minor) little boy
Who's (A major) lost out in the (G major) woods
Always (A major) looking for (D major) the fawn
Yes, I'm a (B minor) little boy
Who's (A major) lost out in the (G major) woods
Always (E minor) looking for (D major) the fawn
Outro 1
(D major) (F sharp minor) (G major) (D major) (A major)
