Jody Like a Melody

Capo 1 ; Carter Style

D           G           D              A
Jody like a melody, you play inside my head
         G                 A               D         A  
Till the thought of you is more than I can stand
D                G             D           A
Just to think of having you is music to my soul
            G                  A              D
You make me feel as though the world is in my hands
G           A           D                Bm              A
Jody like a melody, you warm me and then leave me with a chill


  D                 G
I can’t believe the sun will rise
    D              A
Without me looking in your eyes
    G                 A                D           A
And knowing that your love has made me strong
D                 G
Why you left I’ll never know 
    D                   A
The fire you built will always glow
  G           A                D
I only know I woke to find you gone
G           A           D                Bm              E
Jody like a melody, you warm me and then leave me with a chill


E            A                E               B7
Jody I can’t keep my thoughts about me in the daytime
          A          B&              E             B7 
When your memories enough to make me blind
    E                A             E               B7
And late at night I lie awake, And wait for you to come 
    A                           B7             E
And when you don’t, you know, I almost lose my mind
A           B7          E                A               F#m
Jody like a melody, you warm me and then leave me with a chill …
A           B7
