INTRO (Repeat through verses) 
D   A   G   Bm   A   
D   A   G   Bm   A

Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand
Jack is in his coat, and Jane is her vest, 
And me - I'm in a rock and roll band (Huh!)
Riding in a Stutz-Bearcat, Jim
You know, those were different times
Oh, those poets they studied rules of verse
And those ladies, they rolled their eyes

Sweet Jane - Sweet Jane - Sweet Jane

You know, Jack, he is a banker
And Jane, she is a clerk
And both of them save their money 
And when they come home from work
Yeah, sitting there by the fire  
The radio does play
A little classical music there, Jim
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers"
And you can hear Jack say

Sweet Jane - Sweet Jane - Sweet Jane

Some people, they like to go out dancing 
And other peoples, they have to work
And there is even some evil mothers
Well they're gonna tell you that life is just dirt
You know that women never really faint
And that villains always blink their eyes
And that children are the only ones who blush
And that life is just to die
But anyone who ever had a heart
They wouldn't turn around and break it  
And anyone who ever played a part 
They wouldn't turn around and hate it
