              Hey Joyce, rock and roll never gave you a voice 
           E                        A 
It's never given you so much as a lament 
     F                       Bb 
So I went to the store and I bought a guitar 
     E                     A         A7 
To bestow this accolade on you, just you 
    D                          E 
Not Sally, Carrie Ann or Peggy Sue 
          A                  F          E7          A 
I'm gonna spend my next half day with a girl called Joyce; 
      F                  E7                     A           D A E A 
Gonna possibly stop at Tebay with a girl called joyce. 
    A                    D                        Bm 
Hey Joyce, I know you're not as far out as Ronnie Boyce 
         E                          A 
And I'm aware that you've got a few quirks 
       F                         Bb 
But it hurts when I hear all the songs to Maria 
         E                        A    A7 
Well, we haven't really done with J or K 
D             E 
Much to my dismay 
         A                F         E7          A 
When the bad gets worse I turn to a girl called Joyce; 
      F                  E7                      A         D A E A (x2) 
Gonna lose myself in the thrall of a girl called Joyce. 
       A                  D                          Bm 
Slower ball........ Paris Fashion Week caught me off guard 
      E                        A 
I was busy with trellising the yard 
     F                    Bb 
In a springless cart on a sunless day 
       E                 A          A7 
As the laudanum shortage dawns, two fauns 
D                   E 
Lead me through the glade 
          A                  F         E7          A 
Where the gods have dumped Diana for a girl called Joyce; 
       F                   E7                   A 
And displayed on high is a banner in support of Joyce. 
        F                  E 
And the brook runs crystal clear 
        A                  E 
And the brook runs crystal clear 
        F                  E 
And the brook runs crystal clear 
(nc)               A          A   E A7 
And the wind cries Joyce.
