INTRO
SOL LA SOL LA SOL LA RE RE
VERSE 1
RE SOL RE RE
I don’t know the sound of my father’s voice
RE RE LA LA
I don’t even know how he says my name
SOL LA SIm SOL
But it plays out like song on a jukebox in a bar
RE RE/LA LA RE RE
In the back of my head till it’s worrying machine
RE SOL RE RE
And in the cotton fields by the house where I was born
RE RE LA LA
The leaves burn like effigies of my kin
SOL LA SIm SOL
And the trains run like snakes through the Pentecostal pines
RE RE/LA LA RE RE
Filled up with cotton and dime store gin
CHORUS I
SIm SIm SOL RE
Jacksonville, how you burden in my soul
LA SOL SIm SIm
How you hold all my dreams captive
SIm SIm SOL RE
Jacksonville, how you play with my mind
LA SOL
How my heart goes bad
bm A bm bm(n.c.)
Suffocating on the pines in Jacksonville
INTRO
SOL LA SOL LA SOL LA RE RE
The end the end
Verse 2/Chorus 2 – same chords
Quiet Instrumental break
SOL LA SOL LA SOL LA RE RE
OUTRO
SOL LA SOL LA SOL LA RE RE RE RE
The end the end the end
