Honey when I brought you here you said that you would sing(?)

Bb G7 Bb F

You said that you would win(?) your way to fortune and fame

F Bb F

Now I've given everything to keep you warm and clean

Bb G7 Bb F

I didn't bat an eye when you changed your name

Bb C7 Bb F

I'm getting tired of hearing people call you someone else

Bb

I'm getting tired of seeing you go to work in the morning and eating

C7

supper by myself

F Bb F

Now this Hollywood producer has offered you the world

Bb G7 Bb F

He lets you drive his sporty new Camero

F Bb F

Wonder just how many girls he's told that story to

Bb G7 Bb F

How many dreams have gone away in sorrow

Bb C7 Bb F

I'm getting tires of biting my nails and pumping gasoline

Bb C7

I'm getting tired of waiting for you to figure out why this city is

unclean

Bb F Eb Bb C7

Mae Jean run back home with me and I'll go back to working on your

F

daddy's farm

Bb F Eb Bb

Mae Jean run back home with me

Bb G Bb

This wicked cities bound to do us harm

F Bb F

Now all this time I helped you with your promising career

Bb G7 Bb F

I never said one word about your singing

F Bb F

I just want to let you know that you'll still be my star

Bb G7

If you say goodbye to Hollywood

Bb F

And do your singing in the shower

Bb F Eb Bb C7 Bb F

Mae Jean run back home with me back to where the air is clean + free

Bb F Eb Bb

May Jean run back home with me
