Jailhouse Tears Chords & Lyrics - Lucinda Williams

She: I'm cr[D]ying, j[E]ailhouse t[A]ears
[D] [E] [A]
and I've been trying all these years
[D] [E]
Been trying to ride things out
[A]
but now I'm shifting gears
[D] [E] [A]
and we're both crying jailhouse tears

[D] [E]
He: They say I broke the law
[A]
now everything is broken down
She: babe I know what I s[D]aw [E]
[A]
I know you went downtown.

He: I went to the corne[D]r [E]
[A]
to get a cold six pack
She: You're a drunk you're a sto[D]ner [E]
[A]
you never came back.

He: They locked me up [D] [E]
and you locked me out [A]
She: You tried to steal my t[D]ruck, but [E]
That's not what this is about [A]

He: I used to be a use[D]r [E]
but now I'm all out of stuff [A]
She: You're a 3 time lo[D]ser [E]
you're all fucked up [A]

Chorus: He and She together
I'm crying,[D] jailhous[E]e tears [A]
[D] [E] [A]
and I've been trying all these years
[D] [E]
Been trying to ride things out
[A]
but now I'm shifting gears
[D] [E] [A]
and we're both crying jailhouse tears

[GUITAR SOLO]
He: I'll prove it to you someh[D]ow [E]
[A]
I'm done with every bit
look at me, I'm clean now [D] [E]

[A]
She: you're so full of shit

He: I swear I will tell all [D] [E]
[A]
look in my dresser drawers

She: Now I'm behind the 8[D] -ball [E]
[A]
you're behind bars.
