Biography:
Joelistics grew up in Sydney, the offspring of a Chinese Australian father and an Anglo Australian mother, playing drums in punk and funk groups, but drawn to hip hop with its outspoken politics and ad hoc sonic cannibalism.
At the beginning of the new millennium, Joelistics took the first of a series of 'voyages' around Australia, working as a fruit picker, visiting hippie festivals and hitch hiking across the country, eventually settling in Melbourne where he discovered a city going through a creative boom.

[Verse 1]
Abm B
Out of the blue it all changed in an instant
Abm
He was nineteen when she told him she was pregnant
B
Barely out of high school, living in a small town
Neither of 'em had a job or money in the bank
B
He got work on the factory floor
Abm
Struggling to make ends meet but she adored him
B
Always in his corner when her parents started on her, like
E Abm
"He won't ever amount to that much"
B
The baby arrived, really they tried
E Abm
She said , "Let's do the best we can, a day at a time"
B
He started staying out all night getting drunk
E
Convinced he couldn't deal with what he had and what he'd done
B
He lost his job and that was no surprise
E Abm
She said, "I can't go on watching you destroy your life
B
You need to get it together or I'm leaving with our kid"
B
He said, "It's probably best if you left," so she did.

Abm B
So when you gonna learn? (Oh ohhh ohhhhhh)
E Abm
It'll hit you hard
Abm B
Even if it hurts (Oh ohhh ohhhhhh)
E
And it always does
B B
So when you gonna learn? (Oh ohhh ohhhhhh)
E
Let it in your heart
B
We come together and fall apart
E B
Out of the blue, my love
[Verse 2]
B
Five years later and she's living in the city
Abm
And she'd severed all contact to her old life
Abm B
Her little girl's at school, she was working days
B
Staying up late and studying through the night
B E
Out of the blue, he called up and they talked
E Abm
He said he'd got a job up north on fishing trawlers
Abm B
He hadn't touched a drink for two years, he'd been clean
B
Plus he saved some money on the side in between
B
He cleared his throat, made an awkward joke
Abm
And asked "Maybe I could come and visit you both?
B B
But only if you think it's alright, I mean"
E
She said she'd think about it, the next day she agreed
[Hook]
Abm B
(oh ohh ohhhhhh)
B Abm
It'll hit you hard
Abm B
Even if it hurts (Oh ohh ohhh)
E
Like it always does
B
So when you gonna learn? (Oh ohh ohhhh)
E
Let it in your heart
Abm B
We come together and fall apart
E
Out of the blue, my love
B
Out of the blue
E Abm
Out of the blue (mmm mmmmm)
Abm
Out of the blue
B
Out of the blue, my love
[Verse 3]
Abm
He got on a plane and flew across the desert
B
Watching as the world flew by
E
It felt like he held his breath from the airport
B
All the way to her front door the whole time
Abm
He knocked soft and she opened up
B
And they looked at each other, both dumbstruck
E
Each waiting for the other one to speak first
B
But neither of 'em could find any words, then
Abm
Out of the blue, as if on cue
B
Trying to hold back the tears in their eyes
E
And with a voice full of cracks and a heart fit to burst
B
She said, "Well, you took your time"
[Bridge]
Abm
These moments make up a lifetime
B
Mistakes we make are not fixed in stone
E
People we love are a lifeline
B
And none of us can do it on our own
Abm
Out of the blue
B
Out of the blue
E
Out of the blue, love saves us
B
Out of the blue, we all learn that lesson
[Hook]
Abm B
So when you gonna learn? (Oh ohhh ohhhhhh)
E Abm
It'll hit you hard
Abm B
Even if it hurts (Oh ohhh ohhhhhh)
E
And it always does
B B

We come together and fall apart
