Crazy Jane (song for acoustic guitar)

(Intro: G Em A/G Em A)

(Em)Statues white as static
Black as(D)chessmen made of(C)jade
(Em)Moulder in the attic
Under(D)shrouds of gold(C)brocade
(Em)Shifting panoramas
Of a(D)moonlit(C)Zanzibar
(Em)Embellish the pajamas
That you(D)don in your(C)boudoir

Take the(G)night(D)train(Em)Crazy(A)Jane
Take the(G)night(D)train(Em)Crazy(A)Jane
To the back of your(Em)brain

In depths of darkness I descry
Your aura many-hued
You flutter like a butterfly
Impaled upon a rood
You thread a flock of gannets
That cavort beside the sea
And tell them like the planets
On your cosmic rosary

Take the night train Crazy Jane
Take the night train Crazy Jane
To the back of your brain

Madrigals my tongue's caress
Inscribes upon your thigh
Slowly fade and evanesce
Like writing in the sky
Beauty that the flashes
Of a camera obscure
Will crumble into ashes
But your beauty will endure

Take the night train Crazy Jane
Take the night train Crazy Jane
To the back of your brain
