[Gmaj7] [G7] |Chorus: |He[G7]'s in the jailhouse [C] now, he's in the jailhouse [F] now |I [G] told him once or twice |to stop playin' cards and shootin' dice |He's in the jailhouse [C] now Instrumental: [F] [C] [G] [C] Verse 2: [C] Bob liked to play his poker, Pinochle with Stan Yoker But shootin' dice [C7] was his greatest [F] game Well he got throw'd in jail, with nobody to go his bail The [D] judge done said that he refused the [G] fine.
