• Song:

    Gentleman Joes Sidewalk Cafe

  • Artist:

    Status Quo

This song was meant to be released by Pye records as Status Quos' first US single but at 
last minute it was decided to release it as the B-side of 'Pictures of Matchstick Men', 
Double-A record and it went to number 20 in the US billboard ratings.

I searched every where for this but in the end it was quicker to work it out.

Intro - as existing tab on here......then

C (not strummed on the original)
Hey Joe,
            D
Would you please lend me your ear?
D                                   C
I've got to know if everything's alright
C                  D
Hey Joe, have you seen my baby here?
D                                  C
Oh we used to share a table every night
C                   G
Hey Joe, she's the only girl whose ever
        Bb         G
Meant anything at all
      Bb              G        G7
If I lose her I lose all.......all

C               D
Joe, if you've seen her won't you say
D                                 C       E
Or point in the direction she did go......oh

Am      E     Am         E           Am     
Every night, under the light of the moon
Am        G          Am                         E    
Under a table we'd choose, she'd take off her shoes......
    Am       G            Am        E
And rub her feet against mine......ine

C                D
Joe, would you please lend me your ear?
D                                   C
I've got to know if everything's alright
C                   D
Hey Joe, have you seen my baby here?
D                                  C
Oh we used to share a table every night
C
Hey Joe............(to fade)


A lovely bit of  60's that could be covered now and still be great.
