In The Jailhouse Now Chords & Lyrics - Webb Pierce

[CHORUS]
[E] He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now)
He's in the jailhouse [A]now (he's in the jailhouse now)
I [B7]told him once or twice
To quit [B7]playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse [E]now

[VERSE 1]
Well [E]I had a friend named Rambling Bob
Who used to [E]steal, gamble and rob
He thought he was the smartest guy in [A]town
But [A]I found out last Monday, that Bob got locked up Sunday
They [F#]got him in the jailhouse way down[B7]town

[CHORUS]
He's in the jailhouse [E]now (he's in the jailhouse now)
He's in the jailhouse [A]now (he's in the jailhouse now)
I [B7]told him once or twice
To quit [B7]playin' cards and shootin' dice
He's in the jailhouse [E]now

[Intrumental Break]
[E] [A] [B7] [E]

[VERSE 2]
Well [E]I went out last Tuesday
[E]Met a girl named Susie
I told her I was the swellest man a[A]round
Well she [A]started and to spend my money
She [A]started and to callin' me honey
We [F#]took in every honky tonk in [B7]town

[CHORUS]
We're in the jailhouse [E]now (we're in the jailhouse now)
We're in the jailhouse [A]now (we're in the jailhouse now)
They [B7]told us once or twice
To quit [B7]playin' cards and shootin' dice
We're in the jail-house [E]now
