verse 1:
A Bm D
Just a girl who can't say no
A Bm D
And her sweetheart on parole
A Bm D
Parents named her Jupiter
A Bm D
To bless her with a lucky soul
A Bm D
He's a boy who never cried
A Bm D
When they locked him up inside
A Bm D
And she nicknamed him her teardrop
A Bm D
For the tattoo by his eye
E D (Dsus2)
Now she's sleeping in her bed
E D (D/F#)
And he's sleeping in her bed
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
verse 2:
A Bm D
She divines by radio
A Bm D
Pushing buttons show to show
A Bm D
And she wonders 'bout the fate of
A Bm D
Lovers in the barrio
A Bm D
She forgets after a while
A Bm D
When she tunes in on the dial
A Bm D
Jackie Wilson's Lonely Teardrops
A Bm D
And she drives another mile
E D (Dsus2)
Now she's sleeping in her bed
E D (D/F#)
And he's sleeping in her bed
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop

verse 3:
A Bm D
And they want to have a child
A Bm D
Walk together down the aisle
A Bm D
But the world they live in is mean
A Bm D
And it's built on sheer denial
A Bm D
The phone rings it's for her
A Bm D
Got to see ya Jupiter
A Bm D
I'm in trouble with the law
A Bm D
Bring my 38 caliber
E D (Dsus2)
Now she's sleeping in her bed
E D (D/F#)
As she pulls the phone plug dead dead
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D A
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop oh
Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Teardrop
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Tear
A Bm D
And it's Jupiter and Tear
Ending:
