Jackie Brown chords - John Mellencamp

C/G
Is this your life, Jackie Brown?

Poorly educated and forced to live on the
Em
poor side of town
C/G
Is this your daughter, Jackie Brown?

This pretty little girl in worn out clothes that have

Em
been hand-me-down
C/G
Is this your wife, Jackie Brown?

Sad blue eyes, walking on eggshells, so you
Em
don't see her frown
F            G             C/G
Is this your family Jackie Brown?

F                         C/G
Dream of vacationing in a mountain stream
Am                                     G
and giving the world more than it gave you
F                    C/G
What ugly truths freedom brings
Am                              G
and it hasn't been very kind to you
F            G            C/G
Is this your family, Jackie Brown?

C/G
Is this your meal, Jackie Brown?

Barely enough, I've seen people throw more
Em
than this out
C/G
Is this your home, Jackie Brown?

This three room shack, with no running water
Em
and the bathroom out back
C/G
Is this your grave, Jackie Brown?

This little piece of limestone that says another desperate man
Em
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 could 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-n-amen, Jackie Brown
