Outro:
Dm Am*
Jenny I am in trouble
F c
Can't get these thoughts out of me
Dm Am*
Jenny I'm seeing double
F C
I know this changes everything
[X2]
Dm Am* F C
It takes a lot of rain in the cup
Dm Am* F C
It takes a lot of pain to pick me up
Dm Am* F C
It takes a lot of rain in the cup
Dm Am* F C
It takes a lot of pain to pick me up
Dm Am* F C
Baby you gave me pain and tears
Dm Am* F C
Baby you left me sad and high
Oh, when I lift you up you feel
Like a hundred times yourself
I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You don't think before you jump
And I said I wouldn't get sucked in
This is the last time
Oh, don't tell anyone I'm here
I've got Tylenol and beer
I was thinking that you'd call somebody
Closer to you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You're the only thing I want
And I said I wouldn't cry about
This is the last time
This is the last time
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant and kind
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant
We were so under the brine
We were so out of our minds
We were so under the brine
We were so vacant
Oh, when I lift you up you feel
Like a hundred times yourself
I wish everybody knew
What's so great about you
Oh, but your love is such a swamp
You don't think before you jump
And I said I wouldn't get sucked in
I won't be vacant anymore
I won't be waiting anymore
I won't be faking anymore
I won't be waiting anymore
(repeat x3)
Jenny I am in trouble
Can't get these thoughts out of me
Jenny I'm seeing double
I know this changes everything
(repeat x1)
It takes a lot of rain in the cup
It takes a lot of pain to pick me up
It takes a lot of rain in the cup
It takes a lot of pain to pick me up (fade)
Baby you gave me bad ideas
Baby you left me sad and high

version 2
The tuning's Eb, G, F, G, B, E from the low to high strings. The Eb should be a semitone
lower than the normal E, the G is one octave lower than the higher G, and the F string
should be lower than the previous G string if that makes sense.
