Jefferson

(Words & music by Per Gessle)


Intr: F#m D A

  F#m        D                 A
 Jefferson was always out of luck.
  F#m         D                A
 I remember when we both grew up.
  F#m          D                 
 Jefferson got hit by a westbound 
A
truck.
  F#m                    D        
 I guess that didn't make him look
                A
 like a million bucks.
               Bm                  
 That night when Sally really stole
      D
 the show.
            Bm                     
 And every boy was captured digging
      D
 for gold.
           G                       
 Poor old Jefferson was left in the
  E
 snow.


             D         A
  I'm gonna pray for Jefferson.
 D          A          E
 Pray for Jefferson's soul.
            D        A
 I'm gonna pray for Jefferson.
 D         A           E
 Pray for Jefferson's soul.

  F#m          D            A
 Jefferson is always on my mind.
  F#m               D             
 When him and me were running out 
   A
of time.
  F#m              D          
 Jefferson was sure enough left 
      A
behind.
  F#m                D            
 The cops came in and took him by 
     A
surprise.
                 Bm                
 That night when Sally really 
       D
showed her game.
                       Bm          
 The neighborhood would never be 
    D
the same.
            G                  E
 Poor old Jefferson got the blame.


               D          A
 Oh, I'm gonna pray for Jefferson.
 D          A           E
 Pray for Jefferson's soul...


            C                 G
 I do believe he didn't do wrong.
             D                     
 I say a prayer for someone I care 
C
for.
            Em                C
 I do believe he didn't do wrong.
              G                   
 I say a prayer for someone I care 
D
for.

               Bm                  
That night when Sally really gave 
   D
it all.
             Bm                    
 And made us small boys look quite 
  D
tall.
             G                  E
 Poor old Jefferson left the ball.
