Lady Jane Chords & Lyrics by Mika
Lady Jane
guitar chords lyrics
This is a most beautiful, totally Mika-style weird song. It tells the sad
story of a river goddess and it captured my heart the minute I heard it.
Now I'm really happy I can play it myself.
Intro: F F7 F F7 Bb Gm C
F F7
Lady Jane, the river saint, special, yes, but lucky ain't
Gm C F Dm
Lady Jane said she walked on water but she never had a man to show
Gm C F Dm
Then, one day, she found a fellow, she was eager just to let him know
Gm C A Dm
Lady Jane, she walked on water, followed by her brand new lover
Bb C F
Who tumbled along, drowning down below
F Bb F Bb
F F7
Lady Jane did not abort, for legends are never made that short
Gm C
Now be sure when you listen to this
F
Here's another reason why you shouldn't eat fish
Gm C
Convinced he'd become a creature of the sea
A Dm
She cut off her feet and jumped into the deep
Bb C F
And never stopped looking for her lover below
F Bb F Bb
F F7
Lady Jane, the river fish, became the world's most wanted dish
Gm C
And though no man would dare to catch
F Dm
Something whose beauty we could never match
Gm C
But when some emperor from a far away state
A Dm
Said "I order you to get that fish's head on my plate!"
Bb C F
They killed little lady Jane
F Bb F Bb
F F7
You emperor of a distant land, the only man who didn't understand
Gm C
That though you think you've got your prize
F Dm
There's another fish that has escaped your eyes
Gm C
Lady Jane, her lover's there
A D
Swimming through the ocean with a desperate stare
Bb Cm F A
Looking for lady Jane
Bb C F Bb F Bb F Bb F
Looking for lady Jane
