She Loves The Jerk
Bb Cm
Talking to death, crying on the telephone
D#
The nights when he drinks at home
F Bb Cm F
She has to whisper through her tears
Bb Cm
Johnny, she says, could never do those things to me
D#
But I could never make her see
F G
She�s wasted such precious years
Cm F Bb
Well you married the wrong guy that�s all I ever say
Bridge:
Bb G
He�s a no good so and so
Cm F D#
But she�ll never let him go, though she knows it will never work
Chorus:
Bb D# Bb
She loves the jerk, she loves the jerk
He was the guy always out on the make
I guess he has what it takes
To turn the head of pretty girls
She thought he might change, the worst of us can settle down
But he couldn�t stay out of town
Not even for this precious girl
So she lives with the lies and the bumps and the bruises
Bridge + Chorus
D# F D Gm
I hung up the phone and I pretend she�s in my arms
D# F Gm F G
What I wouldn�t give for just one bit of what she gives Mr. Johnny
Bridge + Chorus (up 1 measure)
