F#There were shouts and D#mscreams and meanwhile F#I was arbiD#mtrator
F#Sat myself in beD#mtween F#he and his replacement D#mmother

[Verse 1]

F# D#m F# D#m

The main door was left wide-open, but I took the other

F# D#m F# D#m

There were shouts and screams and meanwhile I was arbitrator

F# D#m F# D#m

Sat myself in between he and his replacement mother

F# D#m F# D#m

He seemed to be so briefly my good French brother

C# B F#

But the friendship is no longer on

C# B G#m F#

Jean is goin', goin', gone

[Verse 2]

F# D#m F# D#m

He said he'd leave, he leaves me no other option

F# D#m F# D#m

But to put my loyalties up for adoption

F# D#m F# D#m

And it seems to be to me that weed leaves lie forgotten

F# D#m F# D#m

And we used to smoke those leaves, oh so very often

C# B F#

Often and for very long

C# B G#m F#

So Jean is goin', goin', gone

[Verse 3]

F# D#m F# D#m

He'd say he knows his nose could smell that I was smitten

F# D#m F# D#m

With that girl from across the road, did you see I was love-bitten?

F# D#m F# D#m

He'd tell me that he had my back and then my spine would stiffen

F# D#m F# D#m

But I cursed when I learned his word weren't really worth a pittance

C# B F#

Both of them had lead me on

C# B G#m F#

Oh Jean is goin', goin', gone

[Verse 4]

F# D#m F# D#m

I could see in his eyes that I weren't really much motivation

F# D#m F# D#m

To inspire him to be kind, I took a mental notation

F# D#m F# D#m

These lies no crimes of mine, my truths are on rotation

F# D#m D# D#m

To be wise I knew he'd provide all the right quotations

C# B F#

But his wisdom, it was just a con

C# B G#m F#

So Jean is goin', goin', gone

C# B G#m F#

So Jean is goin', goin', gone

[Outro]

C# B G#m F#
