Jacksonville Skyline(Chords)

	        

Verse 1:
 
C 
Well the banks of the river run through my hometown  
C                                        F 
Born on the dirt roads, and i scraped my knees  
C 
Well they paved the roads eventually  
C                                      F 
With neon signs and car dealerships and diners  

 
G                    Am          F 
The soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends  
G               Am          F      G      C 
I saw the pretty women as I walked through town  


Verse 2:
 
C                   
Well I moved away soon as I turned sixteen  
C                                         F 
Figured I was old enough to go and work a job  
C 
Well i floated down main street pools of carlights  
C                                    F 
Overcame me wishin' I was still back home 


G                    Am           F 
The soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends  
G               Am          F      G      C 
I saw the pretty women as I walked through town  


Verse 3
 
C 
Jacksonville's a city with a hopeless streetlight  
C                                                 F 
Seems like you're lucky if it ever changes red to green  
C        
I was born in an abundance of inherited sadness  
C                                                F 
With 50 cent picture frames bought at a five and dime  


G           Am                  F 
I ended up a soldier on the weekend  
G            Am        F 
Looking for a vacancy I wasn't able to find  
G                       Am           F  
Somewhere the night sky hangs like a blanket  
G                 Am            F       G         C 
Shoot it with my capgun just to make it seem like stars
