Lyrics

(A)Stand in’ (G)on the cor ner,

suit (A)case in (G)my hand.

Jack is in his cor set, Jane (A)is in (G)her vest,

and me, I’m in a (A)rock ’n’ roll (G)band.

(A)Rid in’ in a (G)Stutz Bear Cat, Jim.

You know, (A)those were (G)diff ’rent times.

(A)All the po ets, (G)they stud ied rules of (Bm)verse, (A)and those la dies, they rolled (A)their eyes.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

(A)Stand in’ (G)on the cor ner,

suit (A)case in (G)my hand.

Jack is in his cor set, Jane (A)is in (G)her vest,

and me, I’m in a (A)rock ’n’ roll (G)band.

(A)Rid in’ in a (G)Stutz Bear Cat, Jim.

You know, (A)those were (G)diff ’rent times.

(A)All the po ets, (G)they stud ied rules of (Bm)verse, (A)and those la dies, they rolled (A)their eyes.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

But an y one who (A)ev er had (G)a heart,

they would n’t (A)turn a round (G)and break it.

And an y one who (A)ev er played (G)a part,

they would n’t (A)turn a round (G)and hate it.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.

Sweet Jane.
