 I guess that's what you'd call it):
 Weird thing after verse: ]
(Until "You  can tell me anything that you want, 'cept I started seeing Jenny")
 After that, there's not repetition to the chords, so:
 I  started seeing Jenny.
 My Jenny?
 And he looked down at the floor.
 You  know damn well she ain't your  Jenny  no more.
 And I said  Get her on the phone.
 Don't you think it's a  little late?
 No I don't think it's a  little late.
 But I  went out the room cause I knew I'd  better wait.
 So I went down to her dad's  bakery and she said
 I'm gonna go outside, take a break,  smoke a cigarette.
 I'm  still surprised at how  mad you get.
Well  what'd you expect?
 That you  wouldn't try to wreck your  little brother's happiness.
 And I said  Listen to you!
 I know what you're  trying to do.
 And  what whould that be?
 Mess with Michael's head as some kind of revenge  back at me.
 So I  drove up to Springfield in my  wife's new car
 And I  went and had a drink at my  buddy's old  bar.
