Verse -

|D   (m) U    U    U| 


Chorus - "Straight 8s":

|D U D U D U D U |


Tempo: 104 bpm

Key: D


Verse 1 -

||D -D-A-G|G -Bm-A-D|| x8


Standing on a corner 

Suitcase in my hand
Jack's is in his corset Jane is in her vest
And me I'm in a rock n' roll band
Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat Jim
You know those were different times
All the poets they studied rules of verse
And those ladies they rolled their eyes



Chorus -

||D - - - |G - - - || x3


(D) Sweet (G)Jane, (D) Sweet (G)Jane, (D) Sweet (G)Jane


Verse 2 -

||D -D-A-G|G -Bm-A-D|| x8


I'll tell you something Jack he is a banker
And Jane she is a clerk
And both of them save their monies
And when they come home from work
Sittin' down by the fire
The radio does play the classical music there Jim
The march of the wooden soldiers all you protest kids
You can hear Jack say get ready


Chorus -

||D - - - |G - - - || x3


(D) Sweet (G)Jane, (D) Sweet (G)Jane, (D) Sweet (G)Jane

 

Verse 3 -

||D -D-A-G|G -Bm-A-D|| x12


Some people they like to go out dancing
And other people they have to work, just watch me now
And there's even some evil mothers
Well, they'll gonna tell you that everything is just dirt
You know that women never really faint
And that villains always blink their eyes
And that you know children are the only ones who blush

And that life is just to die


But anyone who ever had a heart
They wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who ever played a part
They wouldn't turn around and hate it


Chorus -

||D - - - |G - - - || x4 (Fade Out)


(D) Sweet (G)Jane, (D) Sweet (G)Jane, 

(D) Sweet Jane  (G)Sweet Jane, (D) Sweet Jane  (G)Sweet Jane
