The Ballad Of Jamie Bee chords

INTRO: [C/G] [G6] [Dm] [C/G] [G6] [F] [C/G]

Jamie ran a[G6]ground out in O[Dm]hio [C/G]
Wife left f[G6]or the great un[F]known [C/G]
He says he's gonna [G6]take to the [Dm]high road [C/G]
And she will find a place a[F]lone [C/G]

He said he just [G6]could not make her [Dm]happy [C/G]
That he never [G6]tried so hard be[F]fore [C/G]
He'd wake up first and [G6]make the [Dm]coffee [C/G]
Now the mornings were like [F]war

[CHORUS]
There's a [Am]barroom for every way the [G]wind blows
And a [Am]harness for every mother's [F]son
You [Am]pull your own weight or else it [G]pulls you
And it gets [Am]harder the longer that you [C/G]run

Jamie's from the [G6]last great breed of [Dm]roadmen [C/G]
Woody, Jack and [G6]Kerouac and [F]such [C/G]
But here was a [G6]woman he would [Dm]die for [C/G]
Beauty no road could ever [F]touch [C/G]

The town was nearly [G6]famous for the [Dm]glassworks [C/G]
The factory where they [G6]made hoods for the [F]Klan [C/G]
There's a football hall-of-[G6]famer in the [Dm]phonebook [C/G]
There's only trouble for an empty [F]man

[CHORUS]
'Cause there's a [Am]barroom for every way the [G]wind blows
And temp[Am]tation in every substance [F]known
You [Am]pull your own weight or else it [G]pulls you
It gets [Am]harder the older that you've [C/G]grown [Dm] [C/G] [F]

[C/G]At home in the [G6]Harley-ridden po[Dm]ol-halls [C/G]
Guess it's best they [G6]never had those [F]kids [C/G]
Closer to the [G6]outlaws than the [Dm]in-laws [C/G]
'Said Jamie's heart don't [G6]break, but I know it [F]did
They said [Am]Jamie's heart don't [G6]break, but I know it [F]did

[C/G]He will find some [G6]refuge in his [Dm]music [C/G]
And a long shot that [G6]they will recon[F]cile [C/G]
The meantime is a [G6]mean time and he [Dm]knows it [C/G]
'Til the day he's back up on the [F]pile

[CHORUS]
Now there's [Am]headlights heading from O[G]hio
And there's [Am]teardrops saltier than [F]rain
There's [Am]taillights to tell a tale still [G]tender
And a [Am]cold wind blowing through the [C/G]night
There's a [Am]cold wind blowing through to[C/G]night

OUTRO: [G6] [Dm] [C/G] [G6] [F] [C/G] [G6] [Dm] [C/G] [G6] [F] [C/G]
