Chords with lyrics

• Difficulty: Beginner

🎸 Verse 1:
C majorC        G7G7       C majorC    G7G7
Her two little feet would come running into
  FF    C majorC      G7G7
Our bedroom almost every night
  C majorC      G7G7      C majorC      G7G7
Her soft little face would be wet from her tears
    FF              C majorC
And her little heart pounding with fright



          G7G7       C majorC    G7G7
She'd hold out her arm then she'd climb in beside us
    FF            C majorC
With a small voice we'd hear her remark
FF          C majorC
Mommy and daddy can I sleep here with you
   G7G7           C majorC
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

🎸 Verse 2:
        G7G7   C majorC      G7G7
One day in the summer we took some flowers
  FF            C majorC  G7G7
To place on some old family grave
C majorC      G7G7       C majorC      G7G7
Jeannie said mommy ain't it dark in the ground
  FF        C majorC
Oh daddy I'd be so afraid

        G7G7     C majorC    G7G7
Then she looked up at her daddy and me
     FF               C majorC
And said something that broke both our hearts
     FF         C majorC
She said when I die please don't bury me
   G7G7           C majorC
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

🎸 Verse 3:

      G7G7          FF
Jeannie was always afraid of the dark
    C majorC           G7G7
And we never could understand why
C majorC        G7G7
Cause we looked after Jeannie
C majorC           G7G7
With the very best of care
FF             C majorC
Cause Jeannie was our only child

      G7G7    C majorC           G7G7
Perhaps it was death that she was so afraid of
FF                 C majorC
Cause it took her one dark stormy night
 FF             C majorC
I think we always knew that we'd never see Jeannie grown
G7G7              C majorC
Cause it seemed that she was destined to die

    G7G7       C majorC      G7G7
But on Jeannie's grave we placed an eternal flame
FF          C majorC
That glows and never loses its spark
  FF              C majorC
And on the darkest night there's always a light
   G7G7           C majorC
Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark

🎸 Outro:
  G7G7           C majorC
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
