[Verse 1]
A                       A7                D                      D7
    Jimmy wasn't really popular, he had a couple of friends back home

        F                        G                     C
    And sooner or later they're all getting out so he had to join up alone

A                          A7                      D                D7
    He was dreaming of the Ivy league since he was only three feet tall

F                           G                        C                 C7
    And get the hell out of Jersey and then he would never look back at all
[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
A                     A7                            D               D7
    Jimmy never had a reason to stay ‘cause all the factories shut down

F                    G                             C
    All he had was a line for his name so he could sign away his right to be proud

A                               A7                             D                            D7
    He tried to kiss her on the way out the door, but she just put her little hand on his face

       F                           G                          C                           C7
    “I don't understand why you're leaving”, she said, “but I hope you’re gonna ask me to wait”
[Chorus]
