[Intro]
G D C D  x2
 
 
[Verse]
G              D     C         D
She rises for work early each day
 G                   D                  C             D
She's tough and she's straight and her words never ricochet
 G                    D          C             D
The wounds that you gave her she wears like a bouquet
  G           D              C                 D
It's crazy, joey, how she loves you come what may
     G                D        C           D
And though you have gone she defends you like a lion
      G          D                  C            D
She says you're just going through some kind of phase
   G            D             C          D
Strange talk of deserts, hong kong and red wine
       G             D        C          D
Of kissing the moon in some beat up old plane
 
 
[Chorus]
  G       D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
 C              D
Don't walk out into the night
 G      D         C        D
Mus' ukuthatha ngamawala awuthula-nje
 
G         D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
 C          D
Love can give you wings to fly
 G      D         C         D
Mus' ukuthatha ngamawala awuthula-nje
 
  G      D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
  C     D
Awuthulanje
 
 
[Verse]
 G               D            C          D
She loves the dreamers, but not the schemers
  G                D            C          D
She loves the contradictions, but not the lies
 G              D          C                 D
She says every home ever built was built on tears
     G           D                  C           D
And she's not scared of crying but she is of wasted years
    G                 D       C                  D
So she'll wait like a ship anchored beyond the harbour
      G             D               C                  D
And if there is no place to dock she'll head for the sea
      G               D                    C              D
And I don't know if you know but there's nothing much harder
      G               D                 C                 D
Than facing a part of yourself which you know might have been
 
 
[Chorus]
  G       D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
 C              D
Don't walk out into the night
 G      D         C        D
Mus' ukuthatha ngamawala awuthula-nje
 
G         D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
 C          D
Love can give you wings to fly
 G      D         C         D
Mus' ukuthatha ngamawala awuthula-nje
 
  G      D
Joe-joe-joey don't do it
  C     D
Awuthulanje
 
 
[Outro]
G D C D
