[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 Dm7
Janie was my first love
Em F
We shared the pains of school
C/E Am Em Dm G
She offered me a balance for awhile
Cmaj7 Dm7
And she gave me innocence
Em F
I seemed like less a fool
Em Am Bb
She always had a line to make me smile
Dm
But we separated early
Em
Not an easy thing to do
F G G7 Cmaj9
Sometime seems tomorrow never comes
Dm
But we couldn't keep together
Em
For all the times we tried
Bb Am
We had a sad reunion tonight
[Chorus 1]
F C/E
Oh how we laughed together
Dm7 C
Trapped in the grapes of wrath together
F C/E
Yes and we loved each other
F C/E D C/E
Me and Baby Jane
F C/E
But now she's gone forever
Dm7 C
Lord help me stay together
Am Em
See her vacant eyes and a needle in a vein
Fmaj7 C
Oh baby, baby, Baby Jane

[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 Dm7
I see the purple mountains
Em F
I'm lost and in between
C/E Am Em Dm G
A place that I know well and in a bad dream
Cmaj7 Dm7 Em F
Others stand beside me too late to try and find
Em Am Bb
Excuses in the face of being blind
Dm
But now she isn't waiting
Em
For the feeling of the cold
F G G7 Cmaj9
To free her from the nightmare hold
Dm Em
She was a part of me silently alone
Bb Am
And too far down to draw the line
[Chorus 2]
F C/E
Oh how we laughed together
Dm7 C
Trapped in the grapes of wrath together
F C/E
Yes and we loved each other
F C/E D C/E
Me and Baby Jane
F C/E
But now she's gone forever
Dm7 C
Lord help me stay together
Am Em
I see her in the sky and early morning rain
Fmaj7 C
Oh baby, baby, Baby Jane
