Bubba Shot The Jukebox chords by Mark Chesnutt

G                            C
We were all down at Margie's bar
G                     D   G
Telling stories if we had one
G                             C
Someone fired the old jukebox up
G                   D   G
The song sure was a sad one
G                              C
A teardrop rolled down Bubba's nose
G                          D     G
From the pain the song was inflicting
G                                C
And all at once he jumped to his feet
G                  D      G
Just like somebody kicked him

G
Bubba shot the jukebox last night
D                         G
Said it played a sad song it made him cry
G                                 C
Went to his truck and got a forty five
G                      D    G
Bubba shot the jukebox last night

Bubba ain't never been accused of being mentality stable
G#                         C#
So we did not draw an easy breathe
G#                             D# G#
Until he laid that colt on the table
G#                                    C#
He hung his head till the cops showed up
G#                            D#  G#
They dragged him right out of Margie's
G#                             C#
Told him "Don't play dumb with us, son"
G#                           D#     G#
"You Know damn well what the charge is."

D                      A
Well he could not tell right from wrong
A           E                A
Through the teardrops in his eyes

Beyond a shadow of a doubt

It was a justifiable homicide
