Jacob Green

i found some chords for this song on various websites , and none of them sounded quite right to me . so , i decided to tweak them up a bit . these chords may not be 100% accurate , but they sound a lot better than the other chords floating around . these chords are , in specific , for the live version on the cd/Dvd "a concert behind prison walls" , but i’d imagine these , if slowed down , could apply to the version on the album "murder" . - standard tuning - - no capo - - chords are played as follows - G : 320003 D : xx0232 C : x32010 [ Intro ] G [ Verse 1 ] ( G ) jacob green got busted for possession D next morning early he appeared in court C but he was sent to jail to wait G C to be trialed at some later date G D next morning early , there came a sad report G at the jail they took away his clothes to shame him D and to make sure jacob green had no pride left C they cut of all his hair G C today they found him hanging there G D G afraid to face the day he killed himself [ Chorus ] C D C G it happened yesterday , and if you turn your head away C D somewhere in some dirty hole that scene will be rerun C D C G not only jacob green , but many more you’ve never seen C G it could be someone that you love gets done D G like jacob green got done C G it could be someone that you love gets done D G like jacob green got done [ Verse 2 ] jacobs father hired a team of lawyers inspections and long inquiries were held the sheriff then retired and the papers said two guards were fired they put a brand new coat of paint on jacob’s cell but like a tomb that looks so white and shiny inside you’ll find corruption never seen and somewhere out there tonight in a dirty cell without a light there will be locked up another jacob green [ Chorus ] ( end on G )
