D Bobby said he'd pull out Bobby stayed in Janey had a baby wasn't any sin C They were set to marry on a summer day D A Bobby got scared and he ran away Jane moved in with her ma out on Shawnee Lake She sighed, "Ma sometimes my whole life feels like one big mistake" She settled in in a back room, time passed on Later that winter, a son come along Chorus: G D Spare parts and broken hearts A G D Keep the world turnin' around Now Janey walked that baby across the floor night after night But she was a young girl and she missed the party lights Meanwhile in South Texas in a dirty oil patch Bobby heard about his son bein' born and swore he wasn't ever goin' back Chorus: Spare parts and broken hearts Keep the world turnin' around G Janey heard about a woman over in Calverton D Put her baby in the river let the river roll on G She looked at her boy in the crib where he lay A Got down on her knees cried till she prayed Mist was on the water, low run the tide Janey held her son down at the riverside Waist deep in the water, how bright the sun shone She lifted him in her arms and carried him home As he lay sleeping in her bed, Janey took a look around at everything Went to a drawer in her bureau and got out her old engagement ring Took out her wedding dress, tied that ring up in its sash Went straight down to the pawn shop man and walked out with some good cold cash Chorus: Spare parts and broken hearts Keep the world turnin' around | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C D G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
