Tom : Eb
Eb Bb Cm Gm
Most of the better bred woolen toys have gone to bed
Ab Eb Ebsus4
And the teddy bear is a-sleeping in the cupboard
Eb Bb Cm Gm
And the wooden soldiers all and the rubber bouncing ball
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Are list'ning to the tales of mother Hubbard
Ab
But the fairy lights are dark on the Christmas tree as restelssly
Eb Cm F7 Bb7
I stand here forgotten and a-lone
Eb Bb Cm Gm
I've been too long on the floor, I can't stay here any more
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
So Jenny won't you please take me home.
[Verse 2]
Eb Bb Cm Gm
Statues that I see are made out of blackest ivory
Ab Eb Ebsus4
But I pass them by never to guessing of their meaning
Eb Bb Cm Gm
And a million voices cry as I walk across the sky
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Though it's restless here why it's only in-betweening
Ab
For the journey that I'm on is incomplete so to my feet
Eb Cm F7 Bb7
I must rise now to travel on alone
Eb Bb Cm Gm
Ah, but if you've got some time to spend in between now and the end
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Oh Jenny won't you please take me home.
[Verse 3]
Eb Bb Cm Gm
Almost every word that I've said that you have heard
Ab Eb Ebsus4
Hides another thought left unspoken
Eb Bb Cm Gm
And if I may not reach it through the gutter of my speech
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Then it best be left unsaid than lie unbroken
Ab
And if you wish to see then from time to time look in my eyes
Eb Cm F7 Bb7
Oh the gold is not far beneath the stone
Eb Bb Cm Gm
Mmm and if that will not say it doesn't matter anyway
Ab Eb Ebsus4 Eb
Oh Jenny won't you please take me home.
