Jezebel
From the album "What's So Funny?"
Angry Johnny And The Killbilles



Em
Got a beer in my hand
       G
And an ache in my heart
    Em              G
And one foot in the grave

      Em
To be real like a man
    G
I'm fallin' apart
      Em
I'm a little more than afraid

Em
And the Devil is laughin'
G
Callin' my name
           Em              G
Says "It's time to come on home"

    Em
Got no one to thank
      G
But I know who to blame
       Em
Didn't get here on my own

      Am
For a while I was
   Em
On top of the world
     Am             G
Like king up on his throne

      Am
But I turned to hell
       Em
And my Jezebel
       Am           Em
Up and left me here alone

Em
Now I spend my days
     G
In a whiskey haze
   Em
An old scratch
         G
Pulls my strings

      Em
Won't let me die
       G
When I ask him why
  Em
I hear dark angels sing

Em
Wanna mend my ways

But it's too late
        G
And the Lord

Don't hear me anymore

        Em
All the love in my
                      G
Heart's turned to hate

And the Devil's
               Em
Knockin' at my door

Em
Got a gun in my hand
      G
An an ache in my heart
    Em               G
And no tears left to cry

      Em
Got a ring on my hand
      G
And a promise of love
   Em
Is gold just worthless lies?

Em              G
Lord have mercy on my soul
     D                Em
This fool wants to be saved
                G
But Jezebel has left me cold
                     Em
With one foot in the grave

Em
Wanna mend my ways but it's too late
