"Timothy"
(Rupert Holmes)

Intro:

Am G/B D [2x]
/ / / / / / / /

Verse 1:

Am G/B D
Trapped in a mine that had caved in
Fmaj7 [x33210] G6 [x55430]
And everyone knows the only ones left
Dm7 [x57565] G D
Were Joe and me and Tim

When they broke through to pull us free
The only ones left to tell the tale
Were Joe and me

Chorus 1:

C Bm7 Fmaj7 Am
Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?
C Bm7 Fmaj7 Am G/B D
Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?

Verse 2:

Hungry as hell no food to eat
And Joe said that he would sell his soul
For just a piece of meat
Water enough to drink for two
And Joe said to me, "I'll have a swig
And then there's some for you."

Chorus 2:

Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you
Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?

Verse 3:

I must have blacked out just around then
'Cause the very next thing that I could see
Was the light of the day again
My stomach was full as it could be
And nobody ever got around
To finding Timothy

[repeat chorus 1]

Coda:

Am G/B D
Timothy... [repeat to fade]
