[cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B [cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B
The girl works at the store, sweet Jane Saint Clair
[cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B [cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B
Was dazzled by her smile while I shopped there
[cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B [cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B
It wasn't long before I lived with her
[cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B [cb]Cadd2[/cb] G6/B A7sus G6/B Am
I sang her songs ah while she dyed my hair
[Cborus]
[Am] Ja[D]ne, divided, b[G]ut I [Dsus/F#]can't deci[Em7]de which [D]side I'm o[Am]n
[Am] Ja[D]ne decided o[G]nly [Dsus/F#]cowards st[Em7]ay, while tr[D]aitors ru[Am]n
[Am] Ja[D]ne, Jane
[Instrumental]
[cb]Cadd2[/cb], G6/B, A7sus, G6/B (x2)
[Verse 2]
I'd bring her gold and frankincense and myrrh
She thought that I was making fun of her
She made me feel I was fourteen again
That's why she thinks it's cooler if we'd just stay friends
[Cborus]
Jane doesn't think a man could ever be faithful
Jane isn't giving me a chance to be shameful
Jane, Jane
[Bridge]
[Bm]I wrote a [G]letter, she should have [C]got it yesterd[Dadd94]ay[Dadd94/D#] [Em]
[Em]That life could be b[F#m]etter by being tog[Bm]ether
C Dadd94 [cb]Cadd2[/cb]
Is what I cannot explain to Jane
[Instrumental]
[cb]Cadd2[/cb], G6/B, A7sus, G6/B (x2)
[Verse 3]
The girl works at the store, sweet Jane St. Clair
Still dazzled by her smile while I shoplift there
No promises as vague as Heaven
No Juliana next to my Evan
[Cborus]
Jane, desired by the people at her school and work
Jane is tired, 'cause every man becomes a lovesick jerk
Jane, Jane, Come on
[Coda]
[cb]Cadd2[/cb], G6/B, A7sus, G6/B (x8)
[End on Cadd2]
