Am Am/G Am/F# Am/E
Joe Bridge sits in the same place every day
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/E
Watching life drive by in another nameless face
Am Am/G Am/F# Am/E
Been there as long as he can remember
F
Does anyone remember a man named Joe Bridge?
(Chorus)

Chorus
Am G F Em
Who's gonna take care of Joe Bridge
Am G F G
Who's gonna be- a shoulder to lean on
Am G F Em
Who's gonna take care of Joe Bridge
Am G F G
Who's gonna - help him to his feet
Am G F Em
Who's gonna sing a song - to bring his heart some pleasure
F
Who's gonna help my brother, who lives out on the bridge?

Ramshackle shantys make all the good people stare
Wondering who the hell can stand to live in there
Been there as long as they can remember
Does anyone remember a man named Joe Bridge?
(Chorus)

The sun felt good this morning, but nothing special, nothing new
Good as any other day, that starts with tasteless stew
Times were better, he can just recall
Sometimes its a wonder he remembers anything at all
(Chorus)

The rain came pounding down, just before the dawn
Washing out the streets, even old Joe Bridge was gone
Been there as long as I can remember
Does anybody remember a man named Joe Bridge?
(Chorus)
