Jaywalkers Of The World

Biography:

Josh Joplin Group was an American Georgia-based pop music band led by singer-songwriter Josh Joplin. Joplin, a self-proclaimed "dork" who nonetheless dropped out of school in tenth grade to become a folk singer like his hero Phil Ochs, brought the group its trademark combination of introspective lyrics, folk-rock melodies, and lead vocals that, to many, sound identical to those of R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe (to the point that one Joplin song, "Happy at Last," begins, "I sound like Michael Stipe and I dream like Carl Jung").

Josh Joplin - Jaywalkers Of The World

CAPO: 2nd Fret

[Intro]
Am

[Verse 1]
G D7/F# F
Department store windows dress in their best clothes
Am C/G D Am
And the streets are snowy and wet
G D7/F# F
She holds out her handbag and bullfights with cabs
Am C/G D
But no one has picked her up yet
C G
And so she leaves
F
And she leaves
C G F
And hope springs eternally brief

[Chorus]
C G Am
Jaywalkers of the world united
C G Am F
Cross the traffic of life divided
C G
By those who go
E F
And those who've gone
C G F N.C. F Am
Jaywalkers of the world walk on

[Verse 2]
G D7/F# F
Crowds in the crosswalk, push on to the next block
Am C/G D Am
The holes they leave behind are filled fast
G D7/F# F
Step to the curb and say a parting word
Am C/G D
And lead your people past
C G
You're not alone
F
You're not alone
C G F
We all wanna get back home

[Chorus]
C G Am
Jaywalkers of the world united
C G Am F
Cross the traffic of life divided
C G
By those who go
E F
And those who've gone
C G F N.C. F
Jaywalkers of the world walk on

[Bridge]
C G Am G Am G F
I look both ways before I cross my fingers and pray
C G Am G Am G F
Love is never lost against the light, we join the cause

[Chorus]
C G Am
Jaywalkers of the world united
C G Am F
Cross the traffic of life divided
C G
By those who go
E F
And those who've gone
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world (or those who've gone)
C G F
Jaywalkers of the world
