     D        A             D    
On a Saturday night all the girls
     A2
 run free
         Bm      F#m        Bm   
Singing "bury me not on the lone 
     F#m
prairie"
    D            A           D   
But where do you go when you 
          Esus
finish broken-hearted?

[Verse 1]
D             G          A       
Jenny cut her teeth in a mid-west 
 F#
shack
     Bm         G           A    
As a shantytown girl on the wrong
            F#
 end of the tracks
     Bm             G             
Her mama taught her everything 
   A            F#
she'd need to get along
        Bm            G           
And her Sunday School teacher 
       F#sus           F#
taught her right and wrong
 A                           G
Raised to be respectable but born to
 be poor
       Bm             Bm/D        
It was all she'd ever known but 
  Em                F#     F#
she figured there was more
Bm               G         A    
When she came of age Jenny made 
          F#
herself a vow
     Bm        G         F#sus   
"I'm gonna get out and I don't 
   F#     F#  F#
care how"

      Bm       G         A2

[Verse 2]
     D            G           
It appeared every Autumn on the 
  A          F#
courthouse lawn
        Bm           G             
And the leaves never fell till the 
A            F#
carnival was gone
Bm            G             A    
Michael was a barker for an 
  F#
arcade ride
       Bm          G            
With a smooth-talk tongue and a 
F#sus     F#
wandering eye
 A                             G
"Get your tickets here for the Halls
 O'Mirrors maze
       Bm        Bm/D  Em        
If you can't get out I know a 
    F#     F#
couple ways"
   Bm             G         
He caught Jenny's eye but her 
  A               F#
thoughts looked down
        Bm           G            
All she wanted was a ticket going 
F#sus       F#
out of that town


[Chorus]
Continúa después del anuncio
F#        F#
She cried, she cried,
Bm    Bm       G         G
Oh how I wanna bury you
Bm  Bm          G         A
Oh bury you and run away--done away
Bm    Bm       G         A       Bm
Oh how I wanna bury your memory
Em   F#                 F#
          Why don't you let me be?

[Verse 3]
        D            G             
Michael stole a kiss first then he 
A            F#
whispered at last
          Bm         G            
"you're a little old-fashioned so 
   A              F#
forget about your past
      Bm         G           A   
These Bible belt folks think 
        F#
living is a sin
        Bm        G              
So they all start dying from the 
F#sus             F#
day they're born again"
    A              A              
And there atop the Ferris wheel 
  G              G
the colours were a blur
    Bm              Bm/D          
The morning said he loved her but 
    Em            F#
she wasn't really sure
   Bm               G          
He made her promise not to leave 
    A              F#
until he came to get her
    Bm           G                
She promised him but she should 
   F#sus         F#
have known better

[Chorus]
F#        F#
She cried, she cried,
Bm  Bm         G         G
Oh how I wanna bury you
Bm  Bm          G         A
Oh bury you and run away--done away
Bm    Bm       G         A       Bm
Oh how I wanna bury your memory
Em   F#                 F#
          Why don't you let me be?
Bm    G    A2    F#7

[Bridge]
Bm        G        A2         
                               Oh,

But oh    bridges burn

[Verse 4]
          C#m               A     
When they finally found her body 
    B        G#m
on a cold dog day
       C#m         A   B         
It was in a cattle car buried in 
    G#
the hay
  C#m         A             B     
A note in the pocket of her calico
 G#m
 dress
          C#m       A         G#m
Said "I'm guilty as sin but I 
      G#m
can't confess"
B2                B2            
Once you know the truth you can 
A2           A2
hide it on a shelf
      C#m               C#m/E  
But unless you bring it down you 
        F#            G#m   G#m  
can't live with yourself
G#m  G#m

       C#m        A              
In her right hand Jenny held the 
B2           G#m    G#m   G#m
Bible of her mother
C#m         F#m           G#     
Jenny had a pistol in the other
