D#m Jenny grew up wild, like a blackfoot daisy C# Out in the shack with a blue tick hound B Broke as hell, but blessed with beauty C# The kind that a rich man can't turn down D#m She caught the eye of an oil man dancing C# One summer night in a dime store dress B She had the looks, he had the mansion C# And you can figure out the rest D#m He was all roses, dripping in diamonds, sipping on champagne She was all uptown, wearing that white gown, C# taking his last name Chorus: B She could hear those church bells ringing, ringing F# D#m And up in the loft, that whole choir singing, singing C# B Fold your hands and close your eyes F# Yeah, it's all gonna be alright D#m And just listen to the church bells ringing, ringing C# D#m Yeah, they're ringing Jenny was hosting Junior League parties And havin' dinner at the country club Everyone thought they were Ken and Barbie But Ken was always gettin' way too drunk Saturday night, after a few too many He came home ready to fight And all his money could never save Jenny From the devil livin' in his eyes It was all bruises, covered in makeup Dark sunglasses And that next morning, sitting in the back pew Praying with the baptist Chorus: She could hear those church bells ringin', ringin' And up in the loft, that whole choir singin', singin' Fold your hands and close your eyes Yeah, it's all gonna be alright You just listen to the church bells ringin', ringin' Yeah, they're ringin' Jenny slipped somethin' in his Tennessee whiskey No law man was ever gonna find And how he died is still a mystery But he hit a woman for the very last time Chorus: She could hear those church bells ringin', ringin' Standin' there in a black dress singin', singin' Fold your hands and close your eyes Yeah, it's all gonna be alright And just listen to the church bells ringin', ringin' Yeah, they're ringin You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsB C# D#m F# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
