            THE JACKET
           ASHLEY McBRYDE

CAPO: NONE

INTRO:
E B F#
E B F#

VERSE:
     E       B   F#    B
It`s got a hole in the elbow, bandana pocket
 E       B        F#
Silver button missin` from the snap at the bottom
     E         B
I said, `That thing`s seen better days,
 F#        B
Daddy, you should toss it`
 E      B    F#
And he said `Darlin I can???t`

CHORUS:
        E      B      F#      B
This thing is two-thousand bonfires, I hitchhiked to Boulder
     E     B     F#
It`s kept a million raindrops off your mama`s shoulders
   E      B     F#      B
My heart on my sleeve, my life in these patches
     E         B        F#
Then he wrapped his arms around me in that old
F#      E B F#   E B F#
 Jean jacket


VERSE:
     E       B    F#      B
It`s been a bed for a hound-dog, a picnic blanket
 E          B
There`s blood on the collar
    F#
From a punk who tried to take it from me
 E      B      F#      B
Seen Willie Nelson play four or five states
 E            F#
The best thing Levi ever made


CHORUS:
      E       B       F#       B
We strung four miles of barbed wire in Corinth, Mississippi
     E        B      F#
Spent a night in county jail with an old drunk and a hippy
     E      B       F#      B
It`s my heart on the sleeve, it`s my life in these patches
     E       B        F#
With his arms wrapped around me in that old
F#      E B F#   E B F#
 Jean jacket


OUTRO:
E         B      F#     B
It ain`t much to look at, but he let me have it
      E        B        F#
So I could feel his arms around me in that old
