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
next morning early he appeared in cDourt But he was sCent to jail to wait to be trialed Gat some later dCate Next Gmorning early, there came a sad repDort At the Gjail they took away his clothes to shame him and to make sure Jacob Green had no pride Dleft They Ccut of all his hair Today they Gfound him hanging Cthere afraGid to face the Dday he killed hiGmself
[Chorus]
It hCappened yesterdDay, and if you tCurn your head awGay Somewhere in some dirty hole tChat scene will be reDrun Not Conly Jacob GDreen, but many Cmore you've never Gseen It could be someone that you Clove gets Gdone like JDacob Green got Gdone It could be someone that you Clove gets Gdone like JDacob Green got Gdone
[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)
