Drop D Tuning
Capo on 2
The G chord that he plays looks like this: DADGBE and the Em chord looks like this: DADGBE
550030 222000
Also, in live versions, at the last Bm of every chorus, he does a pull off and a hammer on on the B string. He
doesn't do it in the album version, but I think it sounds cool anyways.
Listen to a live version to find the timing.
[Intro]
D
[Verse]
D
Jayton had a job for seven bucks an hour
At the fillin' station by the water tower
A
Just checkin' oil and fixin' flats
G D
The kind of kid most folks just look past
D
Jill was the local preacher's kid gone wild
Most the time her daddy couldn't stand his own child
A
He'd quote the scripture with an angry shout
G D
And list her all the reasons she would never turn out
[Chorus]
G D
She was drunk one night on the fourth of July
A Bm
Parked in a pasture with an out-of-town guy
G D
He got mad when she said no
Em G
And he tore her Sunday dress
G D
She was wanderin' alone on a county road
A Bm
When the lights came over the hill
G A D
That was the moment when Jayton met Jill
[Verse]
D
He said hey, do you need a ride home
She said go away, leave me alone
A
But he noticed the bruise and the frightened tears
G D
Said there ain't no way in Hell I'm leavin' you out here
D
It was rainin' a little and fixin' to storm
And his mustang jacket looked dry and warm
A
So she let him wrap it 'round her and she climbed inside
G D
Sayin' OK I guess thanks for the ride
[Chorus]
G D
At an all-night diner they waited out the storm
A Bm
Ended up talking right up 'til dawn
G D
By the time he dropped her off safe at home
Em G
Neither one felt so alone
G D
Two lost souls found a connection
A Bm
that's blessin' both of them still
G A D
On that night when Jayton met Jill
[G D A Bm G D Em G]
[Chorus]
G D
And what Jayton never told her about that night
A Bm
Is how he'd taken his dad's old 45
G D
He'd been drivin' 'round thinkin' how no one would miss him
Em G
If he just ended it all
G D
He couldn't see past his own pain
A Bm
'Til he saw a pretty girl walkin' in the rain
G
Thank God he made it over that hill
G A D
That was the moment when Jayton met Jill?
