Dance Little Jean by John Denver


              Dance Little Jean 



Capo:no capo

G
Played a wedding for the money 
 
                                           C
And I wish I could have told the bride and groom
 
          D7
Just what I think of marriage
 
                               G
What's in store after the honeymoon
 
 
 
I was rumbling through the verses
 
                                      C
About how men and women ought to live apart
 
      D7
How a promise never made could not be broken 
 
                        G
And would never break a heart
 
 
 
Suddenly from out of nowhere
 
                                          C
This little girl came spinning across the floor
 
    D7
Her crinolines were billowing
 
                                G
Beneath the skirt of calico she wore
 
 
 
As her joy fell on the honored guests
 
                                    C
Each one of them was drawn into her dream
 
         D7
And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands 
 
                                 G
And hollered at her dance little Jean
 
 
          C                                 G
They said dance little Jean this day is for you
 
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
 
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
 
     D7                    G
Your Momma's marrying your dad
 
 
 
Well this cynic's heart just melted
 
                                    C
As I figured what this get together meant
 
           D7
And how it ended years of tears 
 
                                            G
And sad confusions that the little girl had spent
 
 
 
They told the band to pack it up
 
                                  C
About the time the couple cut the cake
 
       D7
But we stayed and we played all night long 
 
                                        G
For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake
 
 
          C                                 G
We played dance little Jean this day is for you
 
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
 
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
 
     D7                    G
Your Momma's marrying your dad
 
 
        C                                 G
We sang dance little Jean this day is for you
 
                         A7                D7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do
 
C                                     G                C
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today
 
     D7                    G
Your momma's marrying your dad
