Tenille Townes - Jersey On The Wall

      [Intro]
D Bm G A

[Verse]
          D
There’s a jersey on the wall
                 Bm
In a high school gym in my home town
       G
In the corner by the scoreboard
          A
Where the bleacher seats fold down
       D
twenty seven took the Tigers
       Bm
to the Finals that year
    G                           A
but that’s not why it’s hanging there

[Chorus]
     D
If I ever get to heaven

You know I got a long list of questions
     G
like how do you make a snowflake

are you angry when the Earth quakes
             D
how does the sky change in a minute

how do you keep this big rock spinning
    Bm               A        G
Why can‘t you stop a car from crashing
                   A     D   Bm  G  A
forgive me I’m just asking

[Verse]
    D
I bet somewhere there‘s a yearbook
     Bm
in a box under a bed
       G
with a senior picture missing
          A
in loving memory instead
    D
and somewhere there’s a mother
    Bm
who stopped going to church
           G
cause your plan quit making sense
             A
Down here on Earth

[Chorus]
     D
If I ever get to heaven

you know I got a long list of questions
     G
Like how do you make a snowflake

are you angry when the Earth quakes
             D
how does the sky change in a minute

how do you keep this big rock spinning
    Bm                     A        G
Why couldn’t you stop that car from crashing
           A        Bm
forgive me I’m just asking

[Bridge]
D           G
oh I’m just saying
         Bm              A
You don’t have to answer now
      G
oh but someday

[Chorus]
     D
if I ever get to heaven

I got a long list of questions
     G
Like how do you make a snowflake

are you angry when the Earth quakes
             D
how does the sky change in a minute

how do you keep this big rock spinning
          Bm
if you’ve got your hands
   A               G
on everything that happens
         Bm                     A        G
Then why couldn’t you stop that car from crashing
                A    D
forgive me I’m just asking

[Outro]
    Bm  G     A      D
oh I’m just asking
