D        A      G     Bm A D D
Standing on the corner

D        A     G   Bm A D D
Suitcase in my hand

D              A               G             Bm A D D
Jack is in his corset and Jane is in her vest

D   A        G               Bm A D D
Me, I'm in a rock & roll band

D           A         G       Bm A D D
Riding in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim

D      A     G              Bm A D D
Those were...different times

D             A       G             Bm A D D
And the poets studied rules of verse

D           A      G                D
And all the ladies rolled their eyes
[Chorus]
D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G
Sweet Jane
D A A G G Bm A D D [2x] [Verse]
D        A       G     Bm A D D
Now Jack he is a banker

D        A      G      Bm A D D
And Jane she is a clerk

D           A              G              Bm A D D
And they're both saving up all their money

D        A         G             Bm A D D
And when they come home from work

D       A      G   Bm A D D
Sitting by the fire

D      A   G       Bm               A             D
Radios a-playin' a little classical music for you kids

D      A            G              Bm A D D
To The March of the Wooden Soldiers

D       A        G       D
And you can hear Jack say
[Chorus]
D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G
Sweet Jane
D A A G G Bm A D D [2x] [Verse]
D           A       G             Bm A D D
Some people like to go out dancing

D            A         G      Bm A D D
Other people, they got to work

D           A           G           Bm A D D
And there's always some evil mothers

D          A            G           Bm A D D
I tell you life is just full of dirt

D       A           G           Bm A D D
And the women never really faint

D                A            G         Bm A D D
And the villains always blink their eyes

D            A            G             Bm A D D
And children are the only ones who blush

D        A            G     Bm A D D
And that life is just to die

D          A         G    Bm A D D
But anyone who had a heart

D            A           G                  Bm A D D
He wouldn't want to turn around and break it

D          A        G            Bm A D D
And anyone who ever played a part

D            A           G                 D
He wouldn't want to turn around and hate it
[Chorus]
D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G   D
Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

D     G   D
Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

D     G   D
Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

D     G   D
Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

D     G   D
Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

D     G   D
Sweet Jane

D     G
Oh my Sweet Ja-aaaane
[Outro]
D A A G G  Bm A D D
[repeat to fade]
