[Verse 1]
          Am               Em9
So simple hearted and not so remarkable
      G                  Dsus2/F#
As an ordinance with the common folk
          Fmaj13
Expecting nothing from the coming
    E7sus4               E7
Of another person's joke
             Am
And what you do remains as empty
      Em9
When it's full of giving life
        G
So that no one sees the deeds you've done
    Dsus2/F#
And no ones hears you cry
         Fmaj13
You make all the fashion statements
        E7sus4                E7
Just by dressing up your mind
 
 
[Chorus]
     Am             E/Ab
Stay free, stay the same
        G
Play it straight
    Dsus2/F# Fmaj13
And own your name
      E7sus4 E
Plain Jane
 
 
[Verse 2]
         Am                       Em9
You're a hero and you hardly know it
So it goes again
           G
You're the reason that I fell in love
           Dsus2/F#
You're the reason that I am
       Fmaj13
Your belief in being normal means
   E7sus4              E7
To wrap around my hand
               Am
'Cause you are more than just the average girl
       Em9
You've more to give the world
        G
Yet you keep your secrets to yourself
         Dsus2/F#
'Til you press them to a pearl
        Fmaj13
You are everything the every man
         E7sus4              E7
Wants to see and longs to be
 
 
[Chorus]
        Am             E/Ab
So stay free, stay the same
        G
Play it straight
    Dsus2/F# Fmaj13
And own your name
      E7sus4 E
Plain Jane

[Bridge]
F              G
 You're as you are
     C Cmaj9/B Am   G  F
When mother    made it so
       G
As you are
     C Cmaj9/B Am   G F
Your mother    made a star
F          E
 You'll go far
 
 
[Chorus]
            Am             E/Ab
If you stay free, stay the same
        G
Play it straight
    Dsus2/F# Fmaj13
And own your name
      E7sus4 E7 N.C.
Plain Jane
 
 
[Chorus]
            Am             E/Ab
If you stay free, stay the same
        G
Play it straight
    Dsus2/F# Fmaj13
And own your name
      E7sus4 E
Plain Jane
