Capo 6th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

She: I’m crying, jailhouse tears

and I’ve been trying all these years

Been trying to ride things out

but now I’m shifting gears

and we’re both crying jailhouse tears

He: They say I broke the law

now everything is broken down

She: babe I know what I saw

I know you went downtown.

He: I went to the corner

to get a cold six pack

She: You’re a drunk you’re a stoner

you never came back.

He: They locked me up

and you locked me out

She: You tried to steal my truck, but

That’s not what this is about

He: I used to be a user

but now I’m all out of stuff

She: You’re a 3 time loser

you’re all fucked up

Chorus

He and She together

I’m crying, jailhouse tears

and I’ve been trying all these years

Been trying to ride things out

but now I’m shifting gears

and we’re both crying jailhouse tears

Guitar solo

He: I’ll prove it to you somehow

I’m done with every bit

look at me, I’m clean now

She: you’re so full of shit

He: I swear I will tell all

look in my dresser drawers

She: Now I’m behind the 8-ball

you’re behind bars.
