The Ballad Of Jenny Ledge Ukulele tab

	  
E 
Jenny was raised in a house of cards A face that could hijack your breath 
              A                   F#                 E 
The legs of a thoroughbred That's what they said of Jenny Ledge 
E 
Into the fray with a Royal Flush Determined to bring home the gold 
                   A                   F#                E       B 
And drink from the fountainhead That's what she said, my Jenny Ledge 


C#m     B             G#m       F#           F°         E      B 
How I wished I could answer her prayer To be held by an honest man 
C#m     B             G#m      F#           F°         E       B      D#m    G#m 
How I wished I could always be there But my love was not in her plans   Ohh   ooh  


G#m     F#      A           B         E           G 
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease  
G#m      F#           A     G#m        E                        
She runs off with the Vegas King  I've nowhere to stand,  
  G                    G/B                  B 
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me 


E 
Later I held her and asked her why "This is my house and this is my car 
        A                   F#                E       B 
and this is my bed!" That's what she said, my Jenny Ledge 


C#m     B       G#m       F#     F°           E        B 
Just a slave to security She has forgotten the urge to win 
C#m     B       G#m         F#         F°              E       B      D#m      G#m 
All she has is a king and a pair And a tear for what might have been  Oh-oo    oohh 


G#m     F#      A           B         E           G 
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease  
G#m      F#           A     G#m        E                        
She runs off with the Vegas King  I've nowhere to stand,  
  G                    G/B                  B 
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me 

*Interlude over verse* 

E 
So this is the ballad of Jenny Ledge My anger unspoken 
                        A            F#              E       B 
My eyes are learning to cry instead Love is dead for Jenny Ledge 


C#m      B              G#m          F#           F°         E       B 
Once she stood with the world at her feet And the love of an honest man 
C#m     B                G#m           F#        F°         E     B    D#m     G#m 
Now she sleeps while the world marches by In the care of an also-ran   Oh-oo     ooh 


G#m     F#      A           B         E           G 
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease  
G#m      F#           A     G#m        E                        
She runs off with the Vegas King  I've nowhere to stand,  
  G                
I can't understand 

G#m     F#      A           B         E           G 
Tempted by half-Elvis, half man-about-town And a life of ease  
G#m      F#           A     G#m        E                        
She runs off with the Vegas King  I've nowhere to stand,  
  G                    G/B                  B 
I can't understand Why Jenny won't wait for me
