D              Em 
Jane is fine always fine 
G             D               Em  G 
we're unhappy most of the time 
D              Em 
we don't talk we don't fight 
G               D              Em     G 
I'm just tired she's way past caring 
F#m, 
but she says 
G 
 she is fine 
Bm               Em         A   G 
she tells lies most of the time 

D                Em 
What she needs I don't have 
G                 D             Em      G 
that's not in the hand that I'm holding 
D             Em 
so we drink spanish wine 
G                  D                Em      G 
she plays country records until the morning 

F#m 
this is mine 
G 
all of mine 
Bm           Em        A   G 
she is not she is not mine 
           F#m    G 
and I feel fine only when 
      C 
I'm sleeping 
Bm                 C 
only with the t.v. on 
Bm                  D                A 
she and I and empty wine and whisky bottles 
     C  Bm                       C 
and she write beneath crumpled sheets 
  Bm                  D 
she is everything I need 
                A 
but she would rather be 
 C             G 
any place but here 

D             Em 
Jane is fine always fine 
G              D         Em    G 
we're unhappy most of the time 
D              Em 
we don't talk we don't fight 
G                D             Em     G 
I'm just tired she's way past caring 
D             Em                    G 
so we drink spanish wine we tell lies 
               A 
we're killing time 
             G 
and we feel fine 
                        D  Em  G 
well what's the crime?
