Tonart: G major
Verse 1
G
C
Her real first name was Betty,
but I'd rather just forget it
G
So I'll call her the first Mrs. Jones
We were married in September,
and it lasted till November
C
And one day she just took out on her own
I followed her to Savannah
New Orleans and then Atlanta
G
Every day I begged her to come home
Pretty soon I started drinking,
trying hard to keep from thinking
Just how much I loved the
C
G
first Mrs. Jones
C
It was cold and dark one morning,
just before the day was done
When I staggered from a tavern
And she picked up her receiver, I said
You're gonna come back or
Either they're gonna be calling you
the late Mrs. Jones
I put a pistol in my jacket
C
Stumbled out and hailed a taxi
I remember walking proudly
Everybody said I yelled out loudly
Come on out or I'm gonna come in,
The next thing I recall
was walking to the forest
Looking for a place to hide her bones
I dug and I dug for hours
Then I planted flowers
D
C
G
C
Right on top of the first, Mrs. Jones
I'm haunting my little stories again
All I can see is I'm so near you
Little beads of perspiration
Aren't you sorry now that you left me?
Really now, don't you want
to come go with me?
C

After all, you are the second Mrs. Jones
