verse 1 Gm I remember last election, Jim Jones got election. D He said he's voting for the man who pays the biggest price. D7 The next day after poll, he voted away his heart and soul. A D But instead of voting once, he voted twice. Gm He's in the jailhouse now. Cm He's in the jailhouse now. D Instead of staying at home, and leaving the rich folks' business alone: Gm He's in the jailhouse now. verse 2 Gm Do you remember Henry Cruise? He sold that no good booze. D He sold it down to the police at the beat. And now Henry's feeling funny, 'cause the police give him mob money: A D He's got a ball and chain around his feet. Gm He's in the jailhouse now. Cm He's in the jailhouse now. D The judge gave him 10 years, now Henry's shedding tears, boo-hoo-hoo-hoo. Gm He's in the jailhouse now. Solo (over verse + Chorus) verse 3 Gm Son went walking down the street, a little chick he chanced to meet: D So he went to every tavern in town. He drank lots of liquor, and the troubles soon got thicker, A D now he's jailhouse bound Gm He's in the jailhouse now. Cm He's in the jailhouse now. D And if he's got a political friend, the judges sentence he will surely suspend Gm He's in the jailhouse now. Solo (over verse and Chorus) verse 3 Gm Jim Jones likes to roam around, with every little girl in town, D until he met with Benny's wife.

A D And now he's graveyard bound Gm Aaahooooooooo Cm Aiiiiiiiiuuuuuo D Well they used to be friends, but let's let that little matter end now Gm D Gm He's in the graveyard now, six feet under the ground..... Two-three-four Solo (over verse and Chorus)
