Biography:
Lou Reed (March 2, 1942 - October 27, 2013) was an American rock artist originally from Brooklyn, New York, USA. Especially while a member of the The Velvet Underground in the 1960s, Reed broke new ground for the rock genre in several important dimensions, introducing more mature and intellectual themes to what was then considered a largely simplistic genre of music.
In 1964 Reed moved to New York City and began working as an in-house songwriter for Pickwick Records.

[Verse 1]
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Standing on the corner, Suitcase in my hand
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Jack is in his corset, and Jane is her vest,
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
And me I'm in a rock'n'roll band
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Ridin' in a Stutz Bear Cat, those were different times!
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Oh, all the poets they studied rules of verse And ladies, just rolled their eyes
[Chorus]
|E B|A B|E B|A B|
Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane,
|E B|A B|E B|A B|
Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane,
[Verse 2]
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Jack, he is a banker And Jane, she is a clerk
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Both of them save their monies, when they come home from work
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Oh, evenin's by the fire, oh the radio does play
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
A little classical music, they kiss!
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
"The March of the Wooden Soldiers" You can hear Jack say!
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Some people like to go out dancing, and other people like us we gotta work
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
And some people tell you like ain't worth living and that it's just made outta dirt
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Y'know that women never really faint, and the villains always blink they eyes
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
The children are the only ones who blush and life is just for dyin'!
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
Everyone who ever had a heart wouldn't turn around and break it
|E B | A C#m B |E B | A C#m B |
And anyone who ever played the part wouldn't turn around and fake it!
[Chorus]
|E B|A B|E B|A B|
