Sitting here just watching you sleep
  Wish I could slip inside and be in some technicolor dream
  But the air's too thick for one of us to breathe
  I'm not fool enough to think you couldn't live life without me
    I didn't come this far to throw the towel in
  I didn't fight this hard to walk away
  If I ain't smart enough to say I'm sorry
  It's just because the words got in the way
    I remember how it used to be
  I was you and you were me
  We were more than just the same
  Now these shoes don't fit, my skin's too tight
  When you want a kiss, I take a bite
  Let your heart call up the cops, read me my rights
  Last night I drank enough to drown
  Raise a toast to your good looks and to my health
  Look, we both know how much I've let you down
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
    Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
    You deserve a shooter, a saint
  Someone to give it to you straight
  To find the soul through flesh and bone
  My life's a treasure, full of sunny weather
  But it's left me feeling cold
  Now all you wanna do is take me home
  I hated you, the night you said you loved me
  I hated you, 'cause I couldn't love myself
  I'm begging you now, baby please just hold me
  I got one foot in, one foot off the ground
    Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love ...
    [Guitar solo]
    Sitting here while you're fast asleep
  In the bathroom by the sink
  Trying to write the right words down
  I turn out the lights, close my eyes
  There ain't no prayers or kiss goodnight
  What I'll forget to say tomorrow, I'll say now
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
    Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
    Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
    Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  If I gotta beg, I'll beg, just don't walk away
  Janie, don't you take your love to town
  Janie, don't you take your love
