C G Am
Sitting here just watching you sleep
F C
Wish I could slip inside and be
F C G
In some Technicolor dream
C G Am
But the air's too thick for one of us to breathe
F C
I'm not fool enough to think
F C
You couldn't live life without me
F G C
I didn't come this far to throw the towel in
F G C
I didn't fight this hard to walk away
Am Em F
If I ain't smart enough to say I'm sorry
F G C
It's just because the words got in the way
C G Am
I remember how it used to be
F C
I was you and you were me
F C G
We were more than just the same
C G
Now these shoes don't fit, my skin's too tight
Am F
When you want a kiss, I take a bite
C F C
Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
F G C
Last night I drank enough to drown
F G C
Raise a toast to you good looks and to my health
Am Em F
Look, we both know how much I've let you down
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
Chorus:
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
Am Em F
If i've gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
C G Am
You deserve sure a saint
F C
Someone to give it to you straight
F C G
To find the soul through flesh and bone
C G
My live's a treasure, full of sunny weather
Am F
But it's left me feeling cold
C F C
Now all you want to do is take me home
F G C
I hated you, the night you said you loved me
F G C
I hated you, 'cause I couldn't love myself
Am Em F
I'm beggining you now, baby please just hold me
F G C
I got one foot in and one foot off the ground
Chorus:
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
Am Em F
If i've gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
F
Janie don't you take your love
SOLO
C G Am
Sitting here while you're fast asleep
F C
In the bathroom by the sink
F C G
Trying to write the right words down
C G
I turn off the lights, close my eyes
Am F
There ain't no prayers or kiss goodnight
C F C
What I'll forget to say tomorrow, I'll say now
F
Janie don't you take your love to town
Chorus:
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
Am Em F
If i've gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
F G C
Janie don't you take your love to town
