Joey Keys was from my neighborhood

Some would say that he was bad and

Joe thought that was good
A#                                                    F  A# F
Joey got the name "Keys" picking locks

         Gm            Am
He never really robbed no one
      A#
it sure amused the cops
 F
Joey's parents owned a restaurant
             C                                                Dm
After closing time they'd give us almost anything we'd want
     A#                                                F A# F
I never cared that Joey Keys was slow

                    Gm                     Am
Though he couldn't read or write too well
        A#
but we'd talk all night long

Come on, come on, come on
                            A#
What you gonna do with your life?

Chasing sparks in the nights
        F
His old man said tomorrow
        A#
is a ride that goes nowhere
           Gm                                Am

           A#
And break us out of there

Hey Joey

Sometimes you got to stand and fight
     Am       A#
It'll be alright

We're gonna find
               F Dsus2 C
a better life

See Joe was 3 years younger to the day
Acting like a little brother
but became my ball and chain
I met this girl named Rhonda
she fell for me
She said, "I might learn to like him
but love ain't built for three"

Chorus

         C Dm A# Gm C Dm Gm Am A#
Hey Joe

           D#                                                 A#
News gets around in this fading neighborhood
        F
The old man lost the restaurant
He drinks more than he should
          D#                                        A#
It's time for Joey keys to do some good

It'll be alright

a better life

Chasing sparks in the nights
