C G7 C G7
Her two little feet would come running into
F C G7
Our bedroom almost every night
C G7 C G7
Her soft little face would be wet from her tears
F C
And her little heart pounding with fright
G7 C G7
She'd hold out her arm then she'd climb in beside us
F C
With a small voice we'd hear her remark
F C
Mommy and daddy can I sleep here with you
G7 C
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
[Verse 2]
G7 C G7
One day in the summer we took some flowers
F C G7
To place on some old family grave
C G7 C G7
Jeannie said mommy ain't it dark in the ground
F C
Oh daddy I'd be so afraid
G7 C G7
Then she looked up at her daddy and me
F C
And said something that broke both our hearts
F C
She said when I die please don't bury me
G7 C
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
[Verse 3]
G7 F
Jeannie was always afraid of the dark
C G7
And we never could understand why
C G7
Cause we looked after Jeannie
C G7
With the very best of care
F C
Cause Jeannie was our only child
G7 C G7
Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of
F C
Cause it took her one dark stormy night
F C
I think we always knew that we'd never see Jeannie grown
G7 C
Cause it seemed that she was destined to die
G7 C G7
But on Jeannie's grave we placed an eternal flame
F C
That glows and never loses its spark
F C
And on the darkest night there's always a light
G7 C
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
[Otro]
G7 C
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
