Lead Poisoned Jean Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Grew up in an industrial[Bm] town,[Em]
Two blocks away [D]from the
[C]industrial sounds.
Three generations in
[Bm]the same old [Em]home.
Sev[D]en kids mum feels [C]so alone.
Six of them looked like [D]they had a chance
to do [G]something with [B5]their [C]lives.
Little Jeanie had [D]a mind of her own,
but [G]it wasn't [D]a very [Em]good [D]one.

[Verse 2]
And [Am]we try not to be m[D]ean,
To [Em]our little lead p[D]oisoned [C]Jean.
Little [D]lead [G]poisoned Jean.

[Verse 3]
[Am]No special school no one
[Bm]to understand,
[Em]Her teach[D]ers tried to use
the back [C]of their hands,
She can't compute [D]any informa[Em]tion.

[Verse 4]
She [Am]likes pictures on the [D]screen,
[Em]Our little lead [D]poisoned J[C]ean,
Little [D]lead [G]poisoned Jean.

[Verse 5]
[Am]One winters day it was the end o[Bm]f June,
[Em]Her parents put [D]together two a[C]nd two.
She wasn't normal,
no she's [Bm]not the same,
[Em]The legal batt[D]le set the t[C]own aflame.
The company would be re[D]sponsible [Em]for
[Am]every time that Jeannie [D]screams,
[Em]Pollution so o[D]bscene[C]. Little lead [D]pois[G]oned Jean.
[Am]

[Verse 6]
Now the family's rich [G]beyond [Bm]belie[B]f
[Em]That sort [D]of money's
still [C]a shallow relief.
Little Jeannie's got a [D]new
[Em]PlayStation so she

[Verse 7]
[Am]Stares at the [D]screen
She's [Em]my little lead p[D]oisoned Je[C]an.
