      BETWEEN JENNINGS AND JONES BY JAMEY JOHNSON

(it is a little tricky at first if you're not used to three beats in a measure rather 
four)... I like the strum pattern DDD or DDDU (but keep the same rhythm with your 
seems right to me though and a fun song to play along with.

[Verse]
D                     G     D
I left montgomery on north 65
D                                E           A
I was restless and ready to give nashville a try
  G                       D           G
I rolled into town with a sound of my own
   D                A7          D
Somewhere between jennings and jones

(repeat chords from above)
Well, the day job i landed felt just like a jail
I couldn't seem to break out with that hammer and nails
And i spent all my nights in some old honky-tonk
Somewhere between jennings and jones

[Chorus]
        C                        G                              F
Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars i found a few good ole
              C
boys just like me
        C                         G                             F
Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring
                A
outlaws at high speed
         D                         G          D
And they said that the end of that road i was on
    D             A7           D
Somewhere between jennings and jones

[Verse]
(repeat chords from the verse)
Well, some record executives found me on night
I was singing half-lit, they said it sounded just right (right)
They put my name on an album but they shelved all my songs
Said i was somewhere between jennings and jones

[Chorus]
(repeat chords from the chorus)
Hanging out in the bars with the drunks and the stars
And a few good ole boys just like me
Started burning our candles both ends and the middle a bunch of roaring outlaws at high speed
And they said that the end of that road i was on
Somewhere between jennings and jones

         D                  G                    D
Now to find me in a record store won't take you long
          D               A7          D
I'm right there between jennings and jones
