[Verse 1]
[G]The[Dm]re on[D]ce was[G] a girl named Jenny,[Ebaug]
whose virtues [C]were varied
[G]an d many,
accepting [C]that she was inclined
al[Em]ways to [A]make up her [G]mind.
[D]But [G]Jenny points a mor[Ebaug]al
with [E]which you cannot [Em]quarrel,
as you [A]will [Dm]find[Aaug].
[Dm]Jenny made her [B]mind up
when she was [Bb]three,
that [Dm]she herself was going to trim
the Christmas tree.
[Aaug]Christmas [Dm]Eve she lit the [B]candles
through the tapers away.
[Bb]Little Jenny was an orph[Dm]an
on [Aaug]Christmas Day.
Poor [Dm]Jenny, [B]bright as a p[Bb]enny,
her [Dm]equal would be [B]hard to [Dm]find.
She lost one dad and [B]mother,
[A]a sister and a [Dm]brother,
but she [Edim]would make [A]up her
[Dm]mind.[E#][A#][Aaug]
[Ddim]Jenny made her [B]mind up
when she was [Bb]twelve,
that [Dm]into foreign [G]languages
[Em]she would [C#dim]delve.
But [Aaug]at 17, t[B]o Vassa, i[G]t was quite [Bb]a blow,
when in 27 lan[B]guages [A]she
couldn't say no.
[Dm]Poor [D]Jenny, [B]bright as a p[Bb]enny,
her [Dm]equal would be [G]hard [Ebaug]to find .[A]
[C#dim]To Jenny,[Dm] I'm beholden,
[B]her [Bb]heart was big and [Dm]golden,
but she would [A]make up
[Aaug]her mind.[Dm][Bb][Fm][Bb]
Jenny [Ebm]made her m[F#]ind up at 2[Bsus4]2
[B]to get herself a [F#]hus band
[Ebm]was th[Db]e thing to do.
[Ddim]She got hers[Ebm]elf all dolled u[F#]p
in her satins [Db]and [B]furs.
She got herself a [Ebm]husband,
but [Bb]he w[B]asn't he[Ebm]rs.
Poor [F#]Jenny, [B]bright [Bsus4]as a penny,[B]
her equal [Ebm]would be [B]hard [Fm]to find[Ab].
De[Bb]served [Ebm]a bed of roses,[F#]
but [B]history [Ebm]discloses
that she would [Bbsus4]make up her[Bb]
[Ebm]mind.[B][Db][B][F#]
[Ebm]Jenny made her mind u[F#]p at 39.[Bsus4][B]
She would take a [F#]trip to
the [Abm]Argen [Fdim]tine.
[Ddim]She was only[Ebm] on vacation,[B]
[F#]but the [A]Latins agree[B],
Jenny was the one
who started the good neighbor [Ebm]policy.
[Bb]Poor [Ebm]Jenny, [B]bright as a penny,
her equal [F#]would be hard to [Fm]find.
[Bb]Our pass[Ebm]ion doesn't vanish
[F#]in P[B]ortuguese or Spanish,
[Ebm]but she [Bbsus4]would make[Bb] up her mind[Ebm].
[B][Faug][B][F#][Bb]
[Ebm]Jenny made [F#]her mind up [F#m]at 51.[B]
She would write [F#]her memoirs
be[Db]fore she [Ddim]was done.
The [Ebm]very day her book [F#]was published,
[B]history relates,
there were wives who
shot their husband[F#]s
in some [B]33 states.
Poor [F#]Jenny, [A]the right has a penny,
[B]her equal wou[F#]ld be hard to fin[A]d.
[Ebm]She co[Bb]uld [Ebm]give cards a[F#]nd spadings
to [B]many other ladies,
[Ebm]but she [Ab]would make [Bb]up her
[Ebm]mind.[B][F#dim]
[B]Jenny [C]made her mind [G]up [Csus4]at 75.
[C]She would live to be [G]the
oldest [C]woman alive.
[B]But gin[Em] and rum and des[G]tiny
play [Csus4]funny tricks.[C]
And poor [Em]Jenny [G]kicked the
[Bdim]bucket a[Ddim]t 76.[A][B]
[C#m]Jenny [C#dim]points a [F#]moral
with [F#m]which you cannot quar[Bsus4]rel.
[A]Makes a l[B]ot of common sen[Bm]se.[E]
[A]Jenny and her saga
[C#dim]prove tha[G#m]t you are gaga[C#]
[Ddim]if you d[C#m]on't keep [F#]sitting
on the [B]fence.
[C#dim]Jenny and her sto[F#]ry
[Bsus4]point the way to glory
[E]to [B]all man and womankind.
[Bm][E]
[A]Anyone [C#dim]with vision
[G#m]comes to [B]this de[C#]cision.[Ddim]
[F#m]Don't make up,
you [G#m]shouldn't make up,
you [A]mustn't make up,
oh [B]never make up.
[C#m]Anyone with vision
[F#]comes to this decision.
[E]And [F#m]don't [A]make up your [B]mind
[E][A][D][E][Bsus4]
Just sit on the fence
