Jacob Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

  "G" Dsus2 Em A G (for chorus)

NOTES:

||The picking pattern is too complex for me to write out, but is is

||important that you hammer on the third fret of first string and then off

||as you strike the bass G note

||

||the A before the chorus has a suspended lick in it

||listen for the 2nd string--it goes from fret 2 to 3 to 2 to 0

||(listen and you'll understand)

Verse

  Jacob's Ga fine boyDsus2 but his parents Gdon't get along Dsus2

  GThey hardly Dsus2talk, when they do

  He thinks he's Emdone something Awrong

  GHe heard aDsus2ll the screaming Gas he lay down toDsus2 bed

  GHe should haDsus2ve been sleeping but he lEmistened insteadA

 (chorus) They said he's Emfine, it's not hisA fault

  Between the Dlines, he somehow got Gcaught

  And in our gEmame, it's more like wAar

  I just don't think I loEmve you anymoreA

  He pickeGd up the pDsus2hone, his tears tGouched the receivDsus2er

  His gGrandmother aDsus2nswered down iEmn TempeA

  GHe told heDsus2r the story - thaGt his daddy was lDsus2eaving

  GShe tried toDsus2 convince him it was nothEming he'd Adone

 (chorus) She said you're fEmine, it's not your faAult

  Between the Dlines, you somehow gotG caught

  And in their gaEmme, it sounds more like wAar

  I just doEmn't think she lAoves him anymore

Jacob's a father and his kids are in teens

He's done what he could to make meager ends meet

When it comes down to family, it's the primary goal

To keep the thing working no matter the toll

His sons heard them screaming about something he said

He opened the door and invited them in

(chorus) He said now sons, it's not your fault

Between the lines you somehow got caught

So when you're hurt, you lean on a crutch

But I still love your mother very much
