[F]

[Verse 1]
[Am]She was eighte[C]en,
[G]had [F]a California dream
Getting [Am]out was just a[C] matter of t[F]ime
He just turned twenty,
[C]mak[F]ing decent money
Drivin' [Am]L's into r[C]ailroad [F]ties
Boy [Am]meets [C]girl, [F]girl's plans changed
that summer [Am]into a hell [Em]of a f[F]all
[Am]No, they d[G]idn't have i[F]t all together,
but [Am]together they [G]had it [F]all
They had it all
[Am][F][Am][F]

[Verse 2]
[C]Love [Am]did what it does,
was[C]n't even [F]six months
Ain't [Em]ever leav[Am]ing,
[F]shining [C]on her left [F]hand
But that [Am]worse or [F]for better[G],
[C]forever [F]together
Started runnin' [C]out [F]of sand
He [G]was gone

[Verse 3]
[Am]on the road,
she was [F]home all alone
That [Am]lonely took a toll on [C]her [F]heart
Came home [Am]early one [G]night
to [F]surprise her
To find her [Am]lost in someone
[G]else's [F]arms[Em]

[Verse 4]
[Am]This is the story of Jack [F]and Jill
How their [Am]whole world
came [C]tumbling [F]down
[Em]Hear[Am]tbreak kills,[G]
[F]Jill got on the pills
And [Am]Jack couldn't get [C]off [F]that crown
[C]They [Am]found their peace somewhere
[F]underneath
[Am]The roots of a sy[C]camore [F]tree
Yeah, [Am]Jack and Jill [F]went downhill
And [C]ended [Am]up on one in
[C]Ten[F]nessee
In Tenness[Em]ee[Am]
[G][F][G][Am][F]

[Verse 5]
[C]Eve[Am]rybody knows that he couldn't[F] let go
of [G]that [Am]bottle or what [C]she'd [F]done
He took [Am]his last s[C]ip, [F]yeah,
he finally quit [C]that morn[F]ing, [C]he didn't wake [F]up
[G]She [Am]took the news with
[F]the whites and the blues
Didn't leave [Am]a note,
there was [F]no need
The preach[Am]er they us[G]ed when they said,
[F]"I do," is rea[C]din' out[Am] of Psalm 23[G]
Twenty- [F]three
