I use the following pattern: Gm (4), Eb (2), D (2) throughout and that seems to work.
Gm Eb D
Did you see that lady there they stripped her to her underwear
Gm Eb D
She took it one step further and stripped to bare
Gm Eb D
Through the rising flames and smoke she laughed as all the police choked
Gm Eb
And then she danced in the government pyre
D Gm Eb
The jailhouse is on fire
D Gm Eb D
The jailhouse is on fire
Whistle:
Eb Bb F Cm
Gm Eb
She grabbed a guard and stole his keys unlocked the cells
D Gm Eb D
And set us free and we ran and caught our pants on the old barbed wire
Gm Eb
We hit the dirt we hit the road we jumped the fence
D Gm
We kissed a toad and we hollared at the ladies
Eb
In the churchyard choir
D Gm Eb
The jailhouse is on fire
D Gm Eb D
The jailhouse is on fire
Gm Eb D
I hopped a train and headed west free woman now just like the rest
Gm Eb D
All the hobos on the line called me a liar
Gm Eb D
The train it choked and spewed and spat and coal smoke billowed thick and black
Gm Eb
And she was everywhere and rising higher
D Gm Eb
She set the jailhouse on fire
D Gm Eb
She set the jailhouse on fire
