VERSE 1

A                           G         D     A
Julie catch a rabbit by his tail
Bm        A                G       D
Come back steppin' like to walk on air
D                   A
Get back home where you belong
    E                    A      E  A  E  A
And don't you run off no more.

VERSE 2

A                                      G     D    A
Don't hang your head, let the two time roll
Bm          A           G         D
Grass shack nailed to a pine wood floor
D                 A
Ask the time baby I don't know
E                      D
Come back later, gonna let it show.

CHORUS

      A    E       D
I say row    Jimmy row,
      A         E          D
Gonna get there,   I don't know,
        A      E         D
Seems a common    way to go,
            A         E         A
Get out and row, row, row, row, row.

VERSE 3

A                     G  D     A
Here's a half dollar if you dare
Bm          A           G         D
Double twist when you land on air,
D                 A
Look at Julie down below,
E                      D
The levee doin' the do-pas-o.

Get out and row, row, row, row, row.

VERSE 3
A                     G  D     A
Broken heart don't feel so bad,
Bm          A           G         D
You ain't got much of what you thought you had.
D                 A
Rock your baby to and fro
E                      D
Not too fast and not too slow.

Get out and row, row, row, row, row.

That's the way it's been in town,
A               G        D
Ever since they brought the jukebox down.
A       Bm          A      D
Broken hearts don't buy no more,

Not the way it's done before.
