Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][E][G][F]
[Dm][E]

[Verse 1]
Sitting [C]here just [G]watching you [Am]sleep
Wish I could [F]slip inside and [C]be
In some [F]technicolor [C]dream[G]
But the [C]air's too thick for [G]one of us to [Am]breathe
I'm not [F]fool enough to [C]think
You couldn't [F]live life [C]without me
[F]I didn't come this far[G] to throw the tow[C]el in
I [F]didn't fight this [G]hard to walk a[C]way
If [Am]I ain't smart eno[E]ugh to say[F] I'm sorry
It's just because the [G]words got in the [C]way

[Verse 2]
[C]I remember how it [G]used to be[Am]
I was [F]you and you were [C]me
We were [F]more than just the [C]same[G]
Now these [C]shoes don't fit, my [G]skin's too tight
When you [Am]want a kiss, I [F]take a bite
Let your [C]heart call up the [F]cops,
read me [C]my rights
[F]Last night I dra[G]nk enough to dro[C]wn
Raise a [F]toast to your good [G]looks
and to [C]my health
Look, [Am]we both know how m[E]uch
I've let [F]you down
Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town

[Chorus 1]
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
If I've got to [Am]beg, I'll [E]beg,
[F]just don't walk a[Ab]way
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town

[Verse 3]
[C]You deserve a sho[G]oter, a sai[Am]nt
Someone to [F]give it to you [C]straight
To find the [F]soul thought flesh [C]and [G]bone
My [C]life's a treasure, full of [G]sunny weather
But it's [Am]left me feeling [F]cold
Now [C]all you want to [F]do is take [C]me home
I [F]hated you, the [G]night you said you [C]loved me
I [F]hated you, 'cause I [G]couldn't love [C]my self
I'm [Am]begging you now,
[E]baby please just [F]hold me
I got one foot in, [G]one foot off the [C]ground

[Chorus 2]
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
If I've got to [Am]beg, I'll [E]beg,
[F]just don't walk a[Ab]way
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town
[Fm]Janie don't you take your love

[Solo 1]
[C][G][Am][F]
[C][F][C]
[G][Am][E][F]
[F][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[C]Sitting here while [G]you're fast a[Am]sleep
In the [F]bathroom by the [C]sink
Trying to [F]write the right [C]words [G]down
I turn [C]out the lights, [G]close my eyes
There [Am]ain't no prayers or [F]kiss goodnight
What I'll for[C]get to say to[F]morrow, I'll [C]say now
[Fm]Janie don't you take your love to town

[Chorus 3]
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
If I've got to [Am]beg, I'll [E]beg,
[F]just don't walk a[Ab]way
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town

[Chorus 4]
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
If I've got to [Am]beg, I'll [E]beg,
[F]just don't walk a[Ab]way
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town

[Chorus 5]
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
Janie don't you [F]take your [G]love to [C]town
If I've got to [Am]beg, I'll [E]beg,
[F]just don't walk a[Ab]way
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your love to [C]town
[F]Janie don't you [G]take your [C]love
[F][G][C]
