[Verse]
EWay back in the thirties, in the lDittle town of Wilder
Lived an oAld man and his lovely little dEaughter
EThey ran gambling for a living
It was the bDest place around
All the mAen would come and lay their money dEown
EHer daddy was a jealous man,
But DJohanna fell in love
He kept sAaying the man dealt a bad hEand
ESo deep in the night when aDll the world is quiet
ASomeone came and took her lover's lEife
[Chorus]
JoDhanna, JohAanna Ewhere are you now?
Could it bDe you're still hAere someEhow?
JoDhanna, JohAanna Ewhere are you now?
Is it Dtrue, you're still here someAhow?E  
[Verse]
ENow today it's a different place or
All the sDame with a new face
With Astrange mysteries hangin' in the aEir
EPeople in their sane minds sDwear they see you today
Are you lAookin' for the love they took aEway?
EEveryone knows that you cDouldn't bare the pain
So you Atook your life in the pouring rEain
You Atook your life in the pouring rEain
[Chorus]
JoDhanna, JohAanna Eare you really here?
DLooking for your lAover after all these Eyears?
JoDhanna, JohAanna Eare you really here?
Has your lDover rAeturned after all these Eyears?
[Bridge]
ENow some may not believe it
And DI won't say it's true
But Asome of us have smelled your rose pEerfume
[Chorus/Outro]
JoDhanna, JohAanna Eare you really here?
DLooking for your lAover after all these Eyears
JoDhanna, JohAanna Eare you really here?
Has your lDover rAeturned after all these Eyears?
Has your lDover rAeturned after all these Eyears?
