I have been asked to sing the song"Jean" by Rod Mckuen for a funeral coming up asap, and I can vaguely remember it from many years ago. Can anyone help me find a page or site where I can find the chords & lyrics, and possibly the melody notes? Just the chords & lyrics would help, but there will be an organist who needs the music which we can't find. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Kaleea |

And the clouds are so low, You can touch them and so, Come out to the meadow, Jean. Jean, Jean, You're young and alive. Come out of your half dreamed dream. And run, if you will, to the top of the hill. Open your arms, bonnie Jean. Till the sheep in the valley come home my way.Jean, Jean, Roses are red. And all of the leaves have gone green. While the hills are ablaze With the moon's yellow haze, Come into my arms, bonnie Jean. ©1969, Warner Brothers Music From Warner's Most Fantastic Fakebook in the World You'll find a MIDI here (click) |

If not, send me an e-mail and I'll see what I can do for you. -Joe Offer (click to e-mail)- |

I recieved the music and it was truly a gift to the family of the lady who passed away. The only surviving immediate family-my assistant manager for several years- had no idea what to do, or how to do it, much less about what songs would be appropriate! The lady's name was "Jean" and I was told she loved Rod Mckuen & had all his records, so naturally, I immediately thought of that song. They were quite touched by hearing the song--hardly a dry eye in the house! Catters, you're the best! Kaleea |
