Dance Little Jean chords By John Denver Guitar Chords

F
Played a wedding for the money 

                                           A#
And I wish I could have told the bride and groom

          C7
Just what I think of marriage
 
                               F
What's in store after the honeymoon



I was rumbling through the verses 

                                      A#
About how men and women ought to live apart

      C7
How a promise never made could not be broken 

                        F
And would never break a heart



Suddenly from out of nowhere
 
                                          A#
This little girl came spinning across the floor

    C7
Her crinolines were billowing
 
                                F
Beneath the skirt of calico she wore



As her joy fell on the honored guests
 
                                    A#
Each one of them was drawn into her dream

         C7
And they laughed and stamped and clapped their hands 

                                 F
And hollered at her dance little Jean


          A#                                 F
They said dance little Jean this day is for you

                         G7                C7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do

A#                                     F                A#
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today

     C7                    F
Your Momma's marrying your dad



Well this cynic's heart just melted
 
                                    A#
As I figured what this get together meant

           C7
And how it ended years of tears 

                                            F
And sad confusions that the little girl had spent


 
They told the band to pack it up
 
                                  A#
About the time the couple cut the cake

       C7
But we stayed and we played all night long 

                                        F
For love and laughs and little Jeanie's sake


          A#                                 F
We played dance little Jean this day is for you

                         G7                C7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do

A#                                     F                A#
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today

     C7                    F
Your Momma's marrying your dad


        A#                                 F
We sang dance little Jean this day is for you

                         G7                C7
Two people that you love stood up to say I do

A#                                     F                A#
Dance little Jean the prayer that you had was answered today

     C7                    F
Your momma's marrying your dad
