Misc Originals – Aj Ward - Jojo (Guitar)

         A
she said he doesn't love me anymore,

      C#m
I can see it deep in his eyes

        D
She was out of breath, on the mattress,

      E
I was enchanted with her sighs

 A
two cigarettes and a red sunset,

     C#m
in a cornfield by ourselves

       D
On the hood of my car parked out real far,

            E
We left our rings at home on shelves

A
Chained to another, we loved each other

C#m
Better than they ever could

       D
We got Denny's and smoked before we got home

          E
we were together but we were alone

A
Jojo, don't go runnin' around,

         F#m
You gotta set yourself on fire

Bm
Give yourself away to love

             D
Fill up your heart with warm desire

A
Jojo, don't you leave me alone

           F#m
cuz it's a cold and bitter fight

Bm
Spark up another, cigarette

        D
And dance late into the night

         A
She said I'm upset with the state of things,

      C#m
But I can't afford to kill myself

   D
My daughter needs more than I can afford

     E
We'd still be better off by ourselves

        A
Was she looking for love or a new escape?

           C#m
Someone to take her heart and soul on the run?

       D
Was it passion or spite that lit up our nights,

    E
Was I the only one?

  A
A messy divorce was nature's course

           C#m
I took the easiest way out

          D
And in my heart of hearts, I did my part

         E
but that ship still ran aground

A
Jojo, don't go runnin' around,

          F#m
You gotta set yourself on fire

Give yourself away to love

Bm
Spark up another, cigarette

    D
And dance late into the night

      A
Was I trying to fill, a void in my soul

          C#m
Trying to medicate away the pain

   D
My part in this play was a fitting role

          E
I was the fool out in the rain

        A
She was desperate for love, needed to shove

    C#m
Her feelings deep down inside

        D
She was looking for life, on the edge of a knife

    E
The spark was snuffed out and she cried

A
Jojo, don't go runnin' around,

          F#m
You gotta set yourself on fire

Bm
Give yourself away to love

             D

Bm
Spark up another, cigarette

    D
And dance late into the night

C#m                       F#
She's falling out for the last time

           D             A               E
She's been running after something left behind

C#m                    F#m
And after all of those promises

       D               A             E
She is deeply wounded, disenchanted, scared out

         D                  A                  E
What I'd give to to let her know she'll be all right

A

You gotta set yourself on fire
