Jamey Johnson - Between Jennings And Jones

between jennings and jones by jamey johnson

( it is a little tricky at first if you’re not used to three beats in a measure rather
four ) . . . i like the strum pattern ddd or dddu ( but keep the same rhythm with your
seems right to me though and a fun song to play along with .

verse :
D G D
i left montgomery on north 65
D E A
i was restless and ready to give nashville a try
G D G
i rolled into town with a sound of my own
D A7 D
somewhere between jennings and jones

( repeat chords from above )
well , the day job i landed felt just like a jail
i couldn’t seem to break out with that hammer and nails
and i spent all my nights in some old honky – tonk
somewhere between jennings and jones

chorus :
C G F
hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars i found a few good ole
C
boys just like me
C G F
started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring
A
outlaws at high speed
D G D
and they said that the end of that road i was on
D A7 D
somewhere between jennings and jones

( repeat chords from the verse )
well , some record executives found me on night
i was singing half – lit , they said it sounded just right ( right )
they put my name on an album but they shelved all my songs
said i was somewhere between jennings and jones

( repeat chords from the chorus )
hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars
and a few good ole boys just like me
started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed
and they said that the end of that road i was on
somewhere between jennings and jones

D G D
now to find me in a record store won’t take you long
D A7 D
i’m right there between jennings and jones
