Intro
F C F G

            F   G
No piece of sky
              C
For you Jimmy lad
G
They always blame him
F                   C
They knew Jimmy was bad
    F
His own fault entirely
   C
To die without sound
G

That's how it is
    C
One staring at the ground

verse 1
       C
And he wears his isolation
     F
As a widow wears a shroud
     G
They hammered him with discipline
C
Screaming out loud
C
As they did with Jesus
     F
With hammer and with nails
G
Now the cell is quiet
        C
And the moonlight is pale

            F   G
No piece of sky
              C
For you Jimmy lad
G
They always blame him
F                   C
They knew Jimmy was bad
    F
His own fault entirely
   C
To die without sound
G
That's how it is
    C
One staring at the ground

verse 2
     C
He's standing on the bedside chair
    F
The moonlight fills his cell
G
No one ever peeked
   C
In jimmy's private hell
    C
His only friend, a makeshift rope
    F
His only key, his only hope
    G
His neck breaks so easily
       C
And he doesn't make a sound

            F   G
No piece of sky
              C
For you Jimmy lad

His own fault entirely
   C
To die without sound
G
That's how it is
    C
One staring at the ground
