Jackson (CHORDS) by Elle King

[Intro]~
~E
Momma's dead and gone
Papa ain't there
Momma's dead and gone
And Papa don't care

~E ~A ~E ~A ~E ~A ~E


[Verse]~
                   ~E
Brother buried his head

               ~A       ~E
Pocket full of shotgun shells

            ~A     ~E
It's just a merry man

              ~A       ~E   ~A
Stuck in that whiskey well


[Chorus]~
       ~G
What's left of my backbone

   ~A
Is building this broken home

~E                      ~D
Building it up just to leave

~G
Said he could change me

~A
How could you blame me

    ~E                         ~D
Not breaking the law to break free

   ~G       ~A                   ~E
So please, take Jackson out of me


[Verse]~
                ~E
Sister lays her head

             ~A      ~E
She's just a little queen

             ~A    ~E
She don't do many things

        ~A        ~E
But she sure can sing

     ~A        ~E
Your hopeless soul

        ~A        ~E
Begging for more time

       ~A            ~E
Grab a dive and get old

                      ~A       ~E    ~A
Too bad you ain't the killing kind


[Chorus]~
       ~G
What's left of my backbone

   ~A
Is building this broken home

~E                      ~D
Building it up just to leave

~G
Said he could change me

~A
How could you blame me

    ~E                         ~D
Not breaking the law to break free

   ~G       ~A                   ~E
So please, take Jackson out of me


[Bridge]~
         ~E       ~B         ~A
For this country weighs me down

        ~E            ~B              ~A
There's nothing left for me in this town

      ~E        ~B      ~A
These dreams I made before I went

    ~E       ~B             ~A
For I won't waste no more time, yeah!


[Chorus]~
       ~G
What's left of my backbone

   ~A
Is building this broken home

~E                      ~D
Building it up just to leave

~G
Said he could change me

~A
How could you blame me

    ~E                         ~D
Not breaking the law to break free

   ~G       ~A                   ~E  ~A ~E
So please, take Jackson out of me


[Outro]~
                    ~E  ~A ~E
Take Jackson out of me

Take Jackson out of me
