VERSE:
 C
When it was wrong
Bb
She came along
 E      
Singing her songs
     G      D        G
And long before the morning
 C
What could I say
   Bb
I told her to stay
 E
Still here today
      G         D
And there's no need
     G
For talking  


CHORUS:
    F
Jeanette 
   Bb          F
I love you Jeanette
     Bb           Dm
And love's what I get
          C
When you hold me
     C#          Ab
The secrets you told me
 Eb                   F              
Don't you want to be living here with me 
 C  G   C G
Anyway 


VERSE:
 C
Deep in the night
Bb
She is the light
 E           
Have I the right
      G        D          G
They take the love she's bringing
  C
There was a time 
Bb
She drank my wine
E
It was the sign
      G         D          G
That makes the song worth singing 


CHORUS:
    F
Jeanette 
       Bb          F
Oh, I love you Jeanette
     Bb           Dm
And love's what I get

When you hold me
     C#          Ab
The secrets you told me

Don't you want to be living here with me

Anyway
