The Ballad of Jane Doe Chords by Emily Rohm

[Fm] _ _ _ [E] _ [C] _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ [E] _ [C] _ Some [Fm] might say we're [E] released, [Ab] wishing _ [Bbm] daisies deceased,
[Ab] But we all know those [C] must be [Fm] fed.
_ [C] _ _ [Fm] There's just one [E] lingering fear,
[Eb] Oh my soul, is it [Bbm] here, or is [Ab] it rotting [C] somewhere with [Fm] my head?
_ Oh [Eb]
my soul, _ [Ab] _ oh my soul, _ _ oh [Eb] my _ soul, oh [Ab] my _ _ [Bb] _
soul,
[Fm] _ _ _ [Em] _ [C] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ Oh _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _
_ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [C] _ _ [Fm] Oh
Oh no soul [C] and no name [Ab] and no story
What [Ebm] a shame
[Ab] Cruel existence was [C] only a [Fm] sham
_ _ Oh Saint Peter, let [C] me in
[Ab] You must know [Eb] where I've been
Then won't [Ab] you tell me [C] at last who [Fm] I am?
_ _ [Eb] Who I am?
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] Who I am? _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [C] Who I am?
[Fm] _ _ [C] And _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ from the ground beneath my feet
I [Db] hear the anguish of the street A whine
_ And like an [Fm] old forgotten tune
A song that no one [Db] _ _ knows
Forgot how it goes
_ [C] Just John and me Forever, _ _ _ eternally _ [Fm] Jane Doe _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [D] _
[Fm] And I'm asking Why, _ Lord?
Is this this [C] heart?
[G] Die, [C] Lord
_ _ _ Why be left with [Bb] no family [C] and [Fm] no friends?
[Ab] _ _ [Db] I've [Fm] got no _ _ celebration
_ _ This is [C] _ _ [Bb] _ [C] consolation _ _ _
Time eats all his children [Fm] in the end _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] Oh
A _ _ _ _ _ _ melody floats through the air
When silence [Cm] falls
Does no one care?
_ Another [Gm] _ [Gb] sad, forgotten [Gm] tune
Another song that [Eb] no one knows
So that's how it goes
_ _ [D] Just John and me Forever, eternally _
[G] Jane [Gm] _ _ Doe
[C] And she's [Gm] asking _ Why, Lord?
Why, why, why, why?
Is this this heart?
[D] Die, _ Lord
Is this still the _ _ _ _ _ one?
Isn't there [Gb] anyone?
Tell me [Gm] who I am _ _
[Eb] Nothing [D] in song but [Gm] _ celebration _
_ _ Just the song is [D] _ _
exclamation
_ _ Thank _ _ John for all the _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ eternal name
Some [D]
lost refrain _ Just _ Jane
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Eb] Jane
_ _ _ _ [Abm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ [Gm] _ _ [Gb] _
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [Bb] _ _
[F] _ [E] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ _ _
