Wherefore Art Thou Jane by Mean Mary
Wherefore Art Thou Jane
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[Intro]
C G C G C G F G C
[Verse 1]
G F G
A hound bays in the distant dark, a whippoorwill takes flight
C G F G C
Jane is on another lark, passing through the night
G F G
Like a fox that flees her cage, just because she can
C G F G C
Like a lady come of age, a woman with a plan
[Chorus]
F C G C
She comes and goes like summer rain
F C G
As flighty as a whooping crane
F C G C
As restless as a weather vane
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
[Interlude]
C G C
[Verse 2]
G F G
Going up or going down, going fast and far
C G F G C
Up a hill or through a town, or to a distant star
G F G
She’ll cut the string and take her fling, or sit and watch the sky
C G F G C
Or turn her hand to anything, or kiss it all goodbye
[Chorus]
F C G C
She takes the ball and breaks the chain
F C G
Pours precaution down the drain
F C G C
Bubbles over like champagne
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
[Instrumental]
(banjo break)
[Verse 3]
G F G
In the land of midnight peril, on the shore of anywhere
C G F G C
That dreams fly free and feral, oh, you will find Jane there
G F G
You might not find the words that rhyme to make a perfect song
C G F G C
But if you find the time sometime, Jane might sing along
[Chorus]
F C G C
She comes and goes like summer rain
F C G
As flighty as a whooping crane
F C G C
As restless as a weather vane
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
[Chorus]
F C G C
She’s fickle as financial gain
F C G
Sells trouble like an ad campaign
F C G C
She takes the risk and risks the pain
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
[Interlude]
C G C
[Verse 4]
G F G
Another hound bays in the night, and someone wonders why
C G F G C
Did a prowler come in sight, or did Jane just pass by?
G F G
Like a fox that’s free of cage, like a Peter Pan
C G F G C
Like a lady come of age, a woman with a plan
[Chorus]
F C G C
She takes the ball and breaks the chain
F C G
Pours precaution down the drain
F C G C
Bubbles over like champagne
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
[Chorus]
F C G C
She’s sweet and good and true and sane
F C G
Simple as a daisy chain
F C G C
Sweeter still while raising cane
F G C
Oh, wherefore art thou, Jane?
