G#m                                F#
Every night, the same old dream, I hate to close my 
D#
eyes.
  G#m                         F#               D#
I can't erase the memory, the sound of Julie's cry.
    G#m                                      F#
She called me up, late that night, she said, Joe, 
           D#
don't come over.
   G#m                            F#
My Dad and I just had a fight and he stormed out the 
D#
door!

I've never seen him act this way, my God, he's goin' 
E
crazy.
   C#m             B                A

Am                                       G
Got in my car, and I drove like mad 'til I reached Julie's 
E
place.
    Am                                   G              E
She ran to me, with tear filled eyes and bruises on her face.
Am                           G                  E
All at once I saw him there, sneaking up behind me..(Watch out!)
     Am                                     G
Then Julie yelled, he's got a gun!..and she stepped in front 
   E
of me.

C           Am                Bb          F
Suddenly, a shot rang out and I saw Julie falling.
  Dm            C                    Bb                A
I ran to her, I held her close..when I looked down, my hands 
              Dm              C     A     Dm
were red, and here's the last words Julie said..

CHORUS:
Dm                      C                    Eb
Daddy, please don't, it wasn't his fault, he means
