The Wrens Jane Fakes a Hug Lyrics

This is just a transcription of the chords Charles posted on the band forum,
all I've done is set the timing. Each / represents a beat of the previous
chord, and chords written like A/G# represent an A chord with a G# in the
bass. Couple of tricky diminished chords and bass notes, but otherwise not
too bad. Tempo is very, very slow. Strumming pattern is just one downward
strum per chord name or slash. I've tried to place the chord names and
slashes right above the lyric they correspond to, down to the word and
syllable. The two second verses are sung simultaneously, though Charles' is
much more drawn out and is better suited as a backup to Kevin's.
Play this one like a bad memory.
Jane fakes a hug
She throws her - self down on the rug
What's wrong?
My dragging days are whipping long
I can't go on
Time chained friendless
Oh, Jane
Let's end this
Verse 2 (Kevin)
I'd tell her more my thinking
But she'd just stare back blinking
Can't find attraction hate our new house
She don't get
She don't get my work
Jane's made me flirt
In fact I've met this girl, Annette
I made a pass my life's a crumbled mess
I took the girl's address
She just broke up with Paul and I think Jane knows her
Verse 2 (Charles)
Two apr - ils
Go
I'D
Offer all
To god on high
Tell why
I got this far with none for wife
This charming life, I can't un - Jane me
She married Paul
That fall, Aprils ago
Boredom crept in and found me
Temptation follows, mounts me
Our oaths, our real - ty, a good job, a husband
A husband or what
Christ, Jane, I'm not
I never was
She turns, spits out
"We're done, get out
I wanna say good luck
But I don't wanna hold you up
You bastard, son of dirt
Can't picture our house without you"
