The Ballad Of Jenny Ledge
E
Jenny was raised in a house of cards A face that could hijack your breath
A F# E
The legs of a thoroughbred That's what they said of Jenny Ledge
E
Into the fray with a Royal Flush Determined to bring home the gold
A F# E B
And drink from the fountainhead That's what she said, my Jenny Ledge
C#m B G#m F# F° E B
How I wished I could answer her prayer To be held by an honest man
C#m B G#m F# F° E B D#m G#m
How I wished I could always be there But my love was not in her plans Ohh ooh
G#m F# A B E G
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease
G#m F# A G#m E
She runs off with the Vegas King I've nowhere to stand,
G G/B B
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me
E
Later I held her and asked her why "This is my house and this is my car
A F# E B
and this is my bed!" That's what she said, my Jenny Ledge
C#m B G#m F# F° E B
Just a slave to security She has forgotten the urge to win
C#m B G#m F# F° E B D#m G#m
All she has is a king and a pair And a tear for what might have been Oh-oo oohh
G#m F# A B E G
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease
G#m F# A G#m E
She runs off with the Vegas King I've nowhere to stand,
G G/B B
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me
*Interlude over verse*
E
So this is the ballad of Jenny Ledge My anger unspoken
A F# E B
My eyes are learning to cry instead Love is dead for Jenny Ledge
C#m B G#m F# F° E B
Once she stood with the world at her feet And the love of an honest man
C#m B G#m F# F° E B D#m G#m
Now she sleeps while the world marches by In the care of an also-ran Oh-oo ooh
G#m F# A B E G
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease
G#m F# A G#m E
She runs off with the Vegas King I've nowhere to stand,
G
I can't understand
G#m F# A B E G
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease
G#m F# A G#m E
She runs off with the Vegas King I've nowhere to stand,
G G/B B
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me
