Start Jamming...
Come all to [F] the Junior [G] [F] Senior Prom
Biggest occasion [Dm] of the [F] year
And [Gm] now the time [Bb] was here
[Gm] All the girls were [F] going, they all had a [Bb] date
But what about [F] Jane?
[Bb] What about plain [F]
Jane?
She was pretty, [Dm] kids made fun of her
[F] But she was gentle [Gm] as a [Bb] kitten's purse
Still [Gm] she had to feel the [F] pain
When they called her [Bb]
name
[F] Plain Jane, [Bb]
oh, [F] plain Jane
[Bb] Oh, how [Gm] she wanted [C] to go to [F] the prom
[Bb] But no one [C] would ask [F] plain Jane
[Bb] Poor little [Gm]
girl, [F] living in a total [Dm]
world
[F] And lonely she [Gm] was, lonely as [C] could be
[Db]
[Gb] But then the phone [Ebm] rang, someone asked for [Gb] Jane
Tears [Abm] began to flow [B] like rain
[Abm] But they were tears of [Gb] joy, the call was from a [B] boy
Asking Jane [Gb] to the prom
[B] Plain Jane was going [Gb] to the prom
[G] She was all [Em] excited, couldn't [G] wait
Going [Am] on her very [C] first date
[Am] Spent the whole day getting [G] dressed, had to look her very [C] best
But now it's [G] half past eight, [C] guess her date's gonna be [G]
late
[C]
Meanwhile [Am] at the prom, [D] everyone was laughing about the trick [G] they played
[C] And the boy who made the call, [D] he was laughing loudest [G] of all
[C] But their joy turned to tears [Am] instead
When the [G] morning paper said the girl [Em] was dead
Too [Am] much pain for a girl [E] with a name [G] Plain Jane
[Em] Just too [Am] much pain for a girl [D] with a name [G] Plain Jane
[Em] Just too [Am] much pain for a girl [Dm] with a name
[G]
