Jack And Diane chords by John Mellencamp

Guitar chords with lyrics


I just sat down and figured this out yesterday. I'm not sure it's all right,
but here it goes. There is one chord I am not sure what it is called, I think
it's an E6, That is how I will note it, it looks like this:E A D G B e
                              | | | o | |
                              |-|-|-|-|-|
                              | | o | | |
                              |-|-|-|-|-|

Play the D chord like the one Eddie Van Halen uses in 316. For those who
don't know it looks like this:
                e------------------------------
                B--------------3---------------
                G--------------2---------------
                D--------------4---------------
                A------------------------------
                E--------------X---------------

I think this sounds a lot better than just using a regular D chord.

Anyway, the above so-called E6 chord should also be used. Here it
is again in the same format I used to tab the above chord:

                e------------------------------
                B------------------------------
                G--------------1---------------
                D--------------2---------------
                A------------------------------
                E------------------------------
*****************************************************************************




The first part (the heavy part) just goes A, E6, A, E6, D
with the little peck: D------0-0-
           A--0-2-----
           E----------

Then: A   E6      D     E6
   little ..

   A      E6        D   E6  A
   Two ..

   A      E6   D    E6
   Jackie ..

   A      E6          D  E6   A
   Diane's ..
(same for every verse)

in-between:
   A
e-------------------------------------
B----2-3-2-
G----2-2-2-
D----2-2-2-
A----0-0-0-
E----------
       E, D,D, E

     A
   e-------------------------------------
   B----2-3-2-
   G----2-2-2-
   D----2-2-2-
   A----0-0-0-
   E---------

        E, D,D, A

CHORUS:
A   E6   D     E6
  Oh ..

A       E6     D     E6
Long ..


A   E6      D     E
  Oh ..
A       E     D   E A
Long ...

The rest is just different words to the same stuff above.
