[Intro]
[E] Momma's dead and gone
Papa ain't there
Momma's dead and gone
And Papa don't care
[E] [A] [E] [A] [E] [A] [E]
[Verse]
Brother buried his [E]head
Pocket full of [A]shotgun [E]shells
It's just a [A]merry [E]man
Stuck in that [A]whiskey [E]well[A]
[Chorus]
What's [G]left of my backbone
Is [A]building this broken home
[E]Building it up just to [D]leave
[G]Said he could change me
[A]How could you blame me
Not [E]breaking the law to break [D]free
So [G]please, [A]take Jackson out of [E]me
[Verse]
Sister lays her [E]head
She's just a [A]little [E]queen
She don't do [A]many [E]things
But she [A]sure can [E]sing
Your [A]hopeless [E]soul
Begging [A]for more [E]time
Grab a [A]dive and get [E]old
Too bad you ain't the [A]killing [E]kind[A]
[Chorus]
What's [G]left of my backbone
Is [A]building this broken home
[E]Building it up just to [D]leave
[G]Said he could change me
[A]How could you blame me
Not [E]breaking the law to break [D]free
So [G]please, [A]take Jackson out of [E]me
[Bridge]
For this [E]country [B]weighs me [A]down
There's [E]nothing left [B]for me in this [A]town
These [E]dreams I [B]made be[A]fore I went
For [E]I won't [B]waste no more [A]time, yeah!
[Chorus]
What's [G]left of my backbone
Is [A]building this broken home
[E]Building it up just to [D]leave
[G]Said he could change me
[A]How could you blame me
Not [E]breaking the law to break [D]free
So [G]please, [A]take Jackson out of [E]me[A][E]
[Outro]
Take Jackson out of [E]me[A][E]
