The Ballad Of Jayne by L.A. Guns
The Ballad Of Jayne
G C G
She was always something special
G C G
A diamond shining bright in the rain
G C G
Everybody dreams of angels
D C
No one will ever know how much I loved ya so
CHORUS
G
Now it all seems funny
C
Kinda like a dream
G C
Things ain't always what they seem
G
What a shame
C
What happened to Jayne
You were always on my mind
Childlike summer days in the sun
Slowly wishes turned to sadness
Time don't heal a broken gun
I wish I'd never let you go
Hear me now 'cause I want you to know
CHORUS
Now she's breakin' hearts in heaven
Shining bright in the sky
I still hear her voice in the wind
I still think of you in the night
Well I guess she'll never know
How much I need her so

She was always something special
Diamond shining bright in the rain
Everybody dreams of angels
No one would ever know
How much I love you so
Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame, what happened to Jayne
You were always on my mind
Shine like a summer day in the sun
Slowly wishes turn to sadness
Time don't heal a broken gun
I wish I never let you go
Even now I just want you to know
That it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame, what happened to Jayne
Now she's breakin' hearts in heaven
Shinin' bright in the sky
I still hear her voice in the wind
I still think of you in the night, oh yeah
Well I guess you'll never know
How much I need her so
Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame, what a shame
What happened to Jayne
Now it all seems funny, kinda like a dream
Things ain't always what they seem
What a shame, what happened today
What happened today
