Jennie Lyrics
Here's Richard Thompson's "Jennie". This version is the acoustic
version from the "Watching in the Dark" anthology and I haven't
tested it against the studio version. Some base runs not noted
out cause they're different on every verse. Capo on the 4th
fret, but first, tune low E to D. All chords written as if in
first position.

Intro D
Oh trouble becomes you
It cuts you down to my size
And you never were less than perfect
In my eyes
But I lost my way somehow
For three hard winters I held in till now
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie my love
Oh Jennie my love
*Other verses same*
Now you pin up your hair like you did
When first we met
Oh how many days of his life
can a man regret
And if my tears were a train
Then I'd cry my way
Back into your arms again
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie my love
Oh Jennie my love
(Solo)
Now I count the time we had
And the times we missed
Now I stand here love unsworn
And lips unkissed
And you don't know how hard I try
To kill the vision of you as
Another mans bride
Now I can't help it
Oh Jennie my love
Oh Jennie my love
Oh Jennie my love
Oh Jennie my love
