C/G ( figure #3 )
is this your meal , jackie brown?
Em ( figure #4 )
barely enough , i’ve seen people throw more than this out

this three room shack , with no running water and a bathroom out back

C/G
is this your grave , jackie brown?
Em
this little piece of limestone that says another desperate man took himself out
F G C/G
is this your dream , jackie brown?

F C/G
going nowhere and nowhere fast
Am G
we shame ourselves to watch people like this live
F C/G
but who gives a damn about jackie brown?
Am G
just another lazy man who couldn’t take what was his
F G C/G
one hell of a life , jackie brown
F G C/G
forever more , jackie brown
F G C/G
well , amen amen , jackie brown
