Hey Joe,
            D
Would you please lend me your ear?
                                    C
I've got to know if everything's alright
                   D
Hey Joe, have you seen my baby here?
                                   C
Oh we used to share a table every night
                   G
Hey Joe, she's the only girl whose ever
      D           G
Meant anything at all
      D              G
If I lose her I lose all all

C               D
Joe, if you've seen her won't you say
                                   C E
Or point in the direction she did go.

Chorus:
Am     E     Am         E           Am E
Every night, under the light of the moon
Am       G            F                         E
Under a table we'd choose, she'd take off her shoes
     Am      G            Am G
And rub her feet against mine

Joe, have you seen my baby here?
Oh we used to share a table every night
Hey Joe, she's the only girl who's ever
Meant anything at all
If I lose her I lose all
Joe, if you've seen her won't you say
Or point in the direction she did go

Chorus

Joe, would you please lend me your ear?
I've got to know if everything's all right
Hey Joe, have you seen my baby here?
Oh we used to share a table every night
