Chord Jacksonville Skyline by Whiskeytown

written by ryan adams album : pneumonia the guitar is tuned 1/2 step down so if you play in standard tuning just play on the key of B . this tab is according to the album version . i’ve see videos of ryan play this live recently and he sometimes in the chorus does Am to G to F , but that is not how it is recorded in pneumonia . verse 1 C well the banks of the river run through my hometown C F born on the dirt roads , and i scraped my knees C well they paved the roads eventually C F with neon signs and car dealerships and diners chorus G Am F the soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends G Am F G C i saw the pretty women as i walked through town verse 2 C well i moved away soon as i turned sixteen C F figured i was old enough to go and work a job C well i floated down main street pools of carlights C F overcame me wishin’ i was still back home chorus G Am F the soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends G Am F G C i saw the pretty women as i walked through town verse 3 C jacksonville’s a city with a hopeless streetlight C F seems like you’re lucky if it ever changes red to green C i was born in an abundance of inherited sadness C F with 50 cent picture frames bought at a five and dime chorus G Am F i ended up a soldier on the weekend G Am F looking for a vacancy i wasn’t able to find G Am F somewhere the night sky hangs like a blanket G Am F G C shoot it with my capgun just to make it seem like stars thank you
