Poor Jenny  Everly Brothers



Poor Jenny sung by the Everly Brothers:

[A]                            [F#m] 
I took my little Jenny to a party last night

   [F]                      [Dm] 
at ten o'clock it ended in a heck of a fight

      [A#]                         [A] 
when someone hit my Jenny she went out like a light

[B]                [E] 
. . ....Poor Jenny!

    [A]                        [F#m] 
and then some joker called the cops on the phone

   [F]                         [Dm] 
so everybody scattered out for places unknown

  [A#]                       [A] 
I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone

[B]      [E]        [A] 
..............Poor Jenny!

[A]             [G]              [A]          [G]    [A] 
Jenny had her picture in the paper this morning
[D] 
she made it with a bang!
  [B]               [A]           [B]          [A]  -  [B]
according to the story in the paper this morning
[E]
Jenny is the leader of a teen-age gang!

[A]                            [F#m]
Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
     [F]                            [Dm]
her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
  [A#]                             [A]
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
[B]     [E]           [A]
.............Poor Jenny!

[A]                           [F#m]
I went downtown to see her she was locked in a cell
    [F]                               [Dm]
she wasn't very glad to see me that I could tell
   [A#]                             [A]
in fact to tell the truth she wasn't looking too well
[B]      [E]          [A]
.............Poor Jenny!
[A]                                     [F#m]
her eyes were black her face was red her hair was a fright
         [F]                          [Dm]
she looked as though she'd been up crying half of the night
   [A#]                             [A]
I told her I was sorry she said get outta sight
[B]      [E]           [A]
..............Poor Jenny!

[A]              [G]               [A]         [G]    [A]
It seems a shame that Jenny had to go get apprehended
[D]
a heck of a fate
  [B]             [A]            [B]            [A]    [B]
This party was the first one she ever had attended
[E]
It had to happen on our very first date

[A]                            [F#m]
Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
    [F]                            [Dm]
Her daddy wants to ride me outta town on a rail
  [A#]                             [A]
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets outta jail
[B]       [E]           [A]
............ Poor Jenny! FINIS
