Standing In For Joe

by XTC
XTC

Biography:

XTC were a rock band from Swindon, England led by Andy Partridge (guitars, vocals) and Colin Moulding (bass, vocals). Active between the late 1970s and the mid 2000s, XTC's music ranged from jerky new wave/punk riffs to lushly-arranged progressive pop. They also drew heavily from vintage pop rock and psychedelia from the 1960s, genres which they began to explore more deeply after creating The Dukes of Stratosphear side-project. While XTC failed to maintain significant commercial success after the 1980s

Standing In For Joe


Dsus4
I'm standing...
A Asus4 A Asus4 A
Standing in for Joe
D
Joe called round to ask me
F#m
Would I do a favor
G D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
While he's gonna be out of town
A D
Said his girl needs company
F#m
She gets so restless
G D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
Would I keep her safe and sound
D E
Softly softly in the night
F#m F (bass notes EDCBAGF)
Well you can guess the rest
A D
Now these shoes fit all too well
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe
G (A7sus4 'sitar twiddle') A
I'm standing in for Joe

A D
Joe said we've been friends so long
F#m G
That I would be the one
D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
He would trust with his life
A D
Now those words run round my brain
F#m
As darkness falls
G D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
As I turn out his bedroom light
D E
Who could resist her tender charms
F#m F (bass notes EDCBAGF)
So the story goes
A D
This actor he plays all the parts
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe
G (A7sus4 'sitar twiddle')
Oh, I'm standing in for...
F#m E
Love is like a river
F#m F (A7sus4 'sitar twiddle') A
You cannot stop its flow

A D
Joe called round to ask me
F#m
Would I do a favor
G D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
While he's gonna be out of town
A D
He says his girl needs company
F#m
She gets so restless
G D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
Would I check that she’s safe and sound

D E
Softly softly in the night
F#m F (bass notes EDCBAGF)
Well you can guess the rest
A D
Now these shoes fit all too well
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe
G D A Asus4
Standing in for Joe

(rinse and repeat)
