Mr. Jones

• G

            G 
I wanna go across the river To the house on oldway road 
               C                                       G 
Where my life began and ended all the same 

I remember Chris and Johnny childhood friends of mine 
               C                              D 
Who grew wise enough to learn to play the game 

       G        
As I walked up to the front yard There were children playing there 
                     C                           G 
And I thought someday this may be my home again 

But how soon I learned my lesson Through the windows they threw stones 
                             D          G 
And said there´ nothing left inside Mr. Jones 

    G 
Seems the folks that used to live there Worked hard for all their means 
              C                                      	G 
But their means could never take them to an end There was hope down in the city 
                                                         D            G 
Then a bank declined their loan Now there´ nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 
                                       
               Em                    Bm 
Can´t you see that it´ empty now And no one really cares        
      Em                         D 
For even I must try to save my own 
                Em                               Bm 
You should turn around and get back on that Lonely oldway road 
                     C                 D            G 
´Cause there´ nothing left inside, Mr. Jones 

   G 
I´m going back across the river To see if I can find 
         C                                     G 
The place where life can start and end all the same 
        G                                                                
But no matter where I´m going it will dwell inside my bones That there´ nothing left  
    D          G                       D        G                    
inside, Mr. Jones No there´ nothing left inside, Mr. Jones No there´ nothing left  
  D          G 
inside, Mr. Jones
