[E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ So [E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ all the time people [E] come up to me and they [F#m] say,
Hey John, whatever happened to Jack [A] and Diane?
And I'd go, nothing [F#m] happened to them.
You know, I just [E] made them up, right?
And the people would always go,
Why don't you write a song that tells what happened to them?
[F#m] And I would walk away thinking,
That [E] is the stupidest idea I'd ever heard in my life.
Because I just couldn't figure out how to make [F#m] that work.
You know, I just felt silly.
[E] Jack and Diane [F#m] again.
So when I was writing [E] songs for this record I had that just came [F#m] out,
I was writing about a guy [E] named Richard Pryor.
_ _ [F#m] And I thought, well who better to tell [E] the story about Richard Pryor
[F#m] than Diane and Jack, right?
Made [E] perfect sense to me, right?
_ _ [F#m] Diane and Jack went to [E] the movies.
_ _ They would see Richard Pryor
_ _ [F#m] _ Screaming on his knees for [E] his lover.
