Intro:


G  Em  D  C


Verse 1:
G
Jenny was a hippy who never left town
Em
Don’t really know what got her down
        D
But she drinks and smokes her life away
    C
And Forrest was the only man who’d stay
G

Forrest was a small-town country kid
       Em
Didn’t see the world ’cause his momma forbid
D
Loved to see the new things
C
Jenny walkin’ by wearing chains and rings


[Intrumental]
G  Em  D  C


Verse 2:
G
Forrest and Jenny went to school together
    Em
The town would’ve thought it would last forever
    D
But Forrest went to play for the Crimson Tide
    C
And Jenny ran away from being a bride
G
Jenny moved down to Washington
Em
Forrest was there—an All-American
D
Ran up and hugged each other
C
Like they did when they were younger


[Intrumental]
G  Em  D  C


Verse 3:
G
Jenny got a job working at the mill
Em
Still smoking and drinking until she spills
D
It all over the white rug weaving
C
All while thinking ’bout leaving
G
Forrest went home to help his people
    Em
The flood wanting them to the needle
D
When Forrest came back home
C
Jenny had already packed up and gone


[Intrumental]
G  Em  D  C


Verse 4:
G
Jenny came home and found the note
Em
That Forrest left town with some songs he wrote
D
He’s never coming back home
       C
’Cause Jenny left him all alone
D
Jenny still works at the mill today
    Em
And Forrest became famous straight away
    D
The town wonders how
       C
What’s happened to their love now?


[Intrumental]
G  Em  D  C
