[Verse 1]

D                     G           A7
See me sitting in the palmtree
D                     G           A7
Looking down at people passing by
D                       G           A7
Sitting here no-one can harm me
D                         G           A7
They just stare at me and wonder why
           D                 A
No need to bother, I'm gonna stay up here
         D                    A
Whatever happens, I won't let no-one near
          D        E                   A
Until you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind, won't you please
           D        E                       A
You really love me, jeanie jeanie you're so fine, yes you are now
           E                 F#
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
            D         E
I'll be the bluest of men in this town
         D         G             A     D
'cause I love you, jeanie jeanie on my mind

[Verse 2]

D                     G       A7
See me sitting in the palmtree
D                        G           A7
Waiting for those little words from you
D                            G       A7
People laugh and point their fingers
D                   G       A7
Like I was a monkey at the zoo
            D                  A
But I will stay here, among my coconuts
            D                  A
So you will know dear, you're everything I've got
              D        E                   A
Now won't you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind


[Bridge]

D                                          G
Winds blow, stars glow, I see a light in a window
Gm                       C                   A7
Dark trees, soft breeze, carry my message to her please


[Verse 3]

D                     G       A7
See me sitting in the palmtree
D                    G       A7
Feeling angry at the silly crowd
D                     G       A7
No-one else but you can calm me
D                          G       A7
You should know by now I'm far too proud
          D                     A
I need to show you, I've got my feelings too
              D                 A
You shouldn't treat me like you always do
             D        E                   A
So won't you tell me, jeanie jeanie on my mind, won't you please
           D        E                        A
You really love me, jeanie jeanie you're so fine, yes you are now
           E                 F#
And in the evening, when the sun goes down
            D         E
I'll be the bluest of men in this town
         D         G             A7    D
'cause I love you, jeanie jeanie on my mind
G             A7        D
Jeanie jeanie you're so fine
G             A7        D
Jeanie jeanie on my mind
G             A7        D
Jeanie jeanie you're so fine
G             A7        D
Jeanie jeanie on my mind
G             A7        D
