Harper Valley PTA Jeannie C Reilly Intro: G7 G7 G7 G7 Versre 1: [G7] I want to tell you all a story 'bout a Harper Valley widowed wife Who had a [C7] teenage daughter who attended Harper Valley Junior High Well her [G7] daughter came home one afternoon and didn't even stop to play She said [C7] Mom I got a note here from the [D7] Harper Valley P.T.[G7]A. Verse 2: The [G7] note said Misses Johnson, you're wearing your dresses way too high It's re[C7]ported you've been drinking and a runnin' round with men and going wild And we [G7] don't believe you ought to be a bringing up your little girl this way And it was [C7] signed by the secretary, [D7] Harper Valley P.T [G7].A. Verse 3: Well, it [G7] happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon And they were [C7] sure surprised when Misses Johnson wore her miniskirt into the room And as she [G7] walked up to the blackboard I still recall the words she had to say She said, I'd [C7] like to address this meeting [D7] of the Harper Valley P.T [G7].A. [Key change] [A7] Verse 4: Well there's [A7] Bobby Taylor, sitting there and seven times he's asked me for a date And Misses [D7]Taylor sure seems to use a lot of ice whenever he's away And Mister [A7] Baker can you tell us why your secretary had to leave this town And shouldn't [D7] Widow Jones be told to keep her [E7] window shades all pulled completely [A7] down? Verse 5: Well [A7] Mister Harper couldn't be here 'cause he stayed too long at Kelly's Bar again And if you [D7] smell Shirley Tompson's breath you'll find she's had a little nip of gin Then you [A7] have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit Well this is [D7] just a little Peyton Place and [E7] you're all Harper Valley [A7] hypocrites.
