[Intro 1]
[C][Am][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 1]
In the later [C]forties
[Bb]
When Diddy Levine lived with
[C]Eunice [Am]King
He gave her the ring that she [G]wore

[Verse 2]
[C]
Janice the smiling daughter
Who came from a marriage
way [Am]before
But Eunice was the father that she
[G]al ways saw

[Verse 3]
[C]
Though they never never
never never told [Bb]her
She always knew [Am]the score
You see kids were so much wiser
[G]after the wars

[Verse 4]
[C]
But Diddy hadn't have enough
She had [Bb]to get some mo[C]re[Am]
[C]On a rat[Am]ion piece of paper,
she [G]wrote "Eunice, I'm not sure"

[Verse 5]
And with [C]her child in her arms
She went [Bb]looking for a fling
Besides, [Am]she didn't like
the name [G]Mr s. King

[Verse 6]
[G]The [C]first time that she heard
Damper [Bb]Dan
Was on the [Am]radio[A]
[Asus4]Crooning at [Am]a volume that [G]was way,

[Verse 7]
way down low
[C]
Diddy was surprised [Bb]to hear that
Damper's name was Dan
[Am]Soon after he was a calling
And he [G]asked, begged and pleaded

[Verse 8]
for her hand
[C]
Damper's heart was dampened
When Diddy answered "no,
no, [Bb]no, no, [C]no"[Am]
But if she changed her mind,
[C]she said "Da[G]n, I'll let you know"

[Verse 9]
With [C]her child in her arms
She [Bb]went looking for [C]man
Besides, she didn't like the name [Bb]Damper [C]Dan

[Verse 10]
Janice the [C]smiling [Bb]daughter grew up
[C]to be a teenage [Am]queen
Through all of her mother[D]'s lov[Am]ers
[C]She kept t[G]he name Levine

[Verse 11]
[C]
Behind the picture house she
first made her [Am]scene
With a boy called [C]Allister
[G]Who was dating a friend called Cel[C]ine

[Verse 12]
And [C]Celine wasn't mad when
Janice came [Am]in between
But Allister [C]got scared
when [G]he heard
And he joined the USA
[C]Marines

[Verse 13]
Inheritance, [C]you see,
runs through every family
[F]Who is [C]to say what is to be
[G]is any bet[C]ter
Over and over it goes,
[Am]goodness[D] and badne[G]ss winds blow

[Verse 14]
[G][C]
Over and over, over and [Bb]over[Am]
Over and over and [G]over and over
and over and over and [C]over
[Bb]The good and the bad winds
[Am]blow
[G][G]
