Chords

[Verse 1]
G
Not too many miles from here

     C                 G
In a town that I love dear

                                 D
There's a lady that's got me on a string

          G
She's the worst you ever saw

    C               G
She nearly broke my jaw

                     D             G
She made me carry my left arm in a sling
[PreChorus]
         C
She's my darlin, my daisy

      G
She's knock-kneed, she's lazy

                                D
Humpbacked, box-ankled and she's lame

        G
Oh, her nose is like a cork

         D          G
She's the terror of New York

                 D          G
My long, skinny, lanky Sarah Jane
[Chorus]
    C                G
Oh Jane, my good old Jane

         Am                               D
Won't you come back to yer bonehead once again

         G
Oh, they say she's mighty nice

        C                  G
But her armpits smell like spice

                       C           G
She's my long, skinny, lanky Sarah Jane
[Verse 2]
        G                     C         G
Oh she promised to meet me in stockyard 17

                                               D
Down at the stockyards, just three miles out of town

      G                          C              G
Our pigsfeet, and pigs ear, and tough old Texas steer

                D                     G
And sell all the steaks for 14 cents a pound
[PreChorus]
        C                          G
She's my darlin, my daisy, she's my peaches ----

                               D
Humpbacked, bowlegged and she's lame

        G                                  D               G
For they say her teeth are false, for they rattle when she walks

                      D           G
She's my long, skinny, lanky Sarah Jane
[Chorus]
    C               G
Oh Jane, my good old Jane

         Am                                D
Won't you come back to yer bonehead once again

          G
Oh, they say her breath is sweet

        C                G
But I'd rather smell her feet

                       C           G
She's my long, skinny, lanky Sarah Jane
