[Intro] Bb Eb9 | Bb Eb9 | Bb Eb9 | Bb Eb9
G7                          D7                            G7
Julie and little John Tyler lived in the house next door

D7              G7      D7     E7            Eb7
We would be the great triangle and to this we swore

D7            Eb7        Bb     D/A         G
Julie was my sweetheart, little John was my cohort

C  / Bb           /A          /G     F
And all the wild horses in the world couldn't keep us apart

Gb                                     Bb Eb | Bb Eb
Once we went for a swim in the noonday sun

Gb                                            Bb Eb | Bb Eb
And promised to return before the moon struck one
[Interlude] Bb Eb (x2) | Gb | Gb | Eb7 | Eb7
G7                                      D7                           G7
Julie came running through the pasture, she was screaming at the sky

D7             G7    D7     E7           Eb7
She fell down to her knees and the tears did fly

  D7             Eb7            Bb   D/A     G
Little John was stung by a snake over by the lake

 C / Bb          /A              /G          F
And it looked like he's really, really hurt, he was lying in the dirt

Gb                                  Bb Eb | Bb Eb
Ooh, we went it as fast as we could run

 Gb                                       Bb Eb | Bb Eb
But we lost little John as the moon struck one
[Interlude] Bb Eb (x2) | Gb | Gb | Eb7 | Eb7
G7                        D7                     G7
I was vacant, Julie was a bird with a broken wing

D7             G7     D7     E7          Eb7
We were always afraid of what tomorrow might bring

D7            Eb7            Bb    D/A     G
We'll drive down to Durango--up and leave this place

 C / Bb        /A             /G         F
And maybe forget the triangle with a change of pace

 Gb                                   Bb Eb | Bb Eb
The car broke down when we had just begun

 Gb                                                  Bb Eb | Bb Eb (x7)
And we walked back to the house while the moon struck one
