Jackson Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][G][D][F#m]
[A]

[Verse 1]
Jackson was an actor [G]At least
he was when he was [D]well
[Bm]Stephanie was good to me but not
so much to her[F#m]self
[A]We were holed up in a hotel room
[G]from August to November
[D]It was Jack[Bm]son, me, and Stephanie
[D]The res[Bm]t I don't remember
[F#m][A][G][A][D]

[Verse 2]
[A]
Stephanie appeared to me in the
[G]back half of the [Bm]theater
We met up with Jack[D]son
on the strand a few days later
[A]We pooled our funds and made a run
[G]We were foolproof when it counted
[D]It was Jackson, [A]me, and Stephanie
And it didn't [Bm]seem all [G]that crowded

[Verse 3]
[D]Now why you asking[F#m] about Jackson?
[Em]It w[C]as a long time ago a[G]nd
nothing really [A]happene[G]d[D]
Why you asking about [F#m]Jack son?

[Interlude 1]
[Em][A]
[Em][G][D]
[A][C][G][D][F#m][Bm]
Jack[A]son just got rest[Am]less Couldn't

[Verse 4]
[G]
take the lack of action
[D]He was sort of like a shark
[F#m]He just had to keep on [Bm]swimming
[D]And the[A] sailors kept on coming
off [G]the boats down at the harbor
It [D]was difficult to stop
[F#m]It was easy to get started[D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Stephanie [A]came on strong
[G]but suddenly went weak
[D]She seemed [F#m]a little [D]speedy and her tongue
worked at [Bm]her teeth[D]
[A]The sirens came behind us
It was [G]a bit

[Verse 6]
be fore we heard it
It was [D]Jackson, [C]me and Stephanie
[A]And for a w[C]hile it felt jus[D]t per[Bm]fect
[G][D]

[Verse 7]
Now why you asking about [Bm]Jackson?
[Em]It w[C]as a long time ago a[G]nd nothing
really [A]happened
[G]Someone said he ended up
[D]in [F#m]Denver
[Em]Someone said he went to
Kansas City
[C]Someone said he went off
[G]the deep end
[A]Some said he was living there [C]already
One day Jack[D]son just didn't
show up to the [G]party[Em][C]
One day Jack[D]son just didn't show
up to the party
[G]

[Verse 8]
[Em]
[C]Stephanie was long on looks and
short [D]on mental health
She said depres[G]sion is an ocean and it's [Em]prone
to tides and [C]swells
Anxiety's persistent
It's an ambi[D]tious politician
It keeps [G]knocking on your [Em]door
Until you come and let it in
[C]I t[D]hink that Jackson let it in[G][Em][C]
[D]I think Jackson let it in
[G]
