In The Jailhouse Now

                      A
He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now)
  B7
I told him once or twice
        B7
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
                      E
He's in the jailhouse now

[Verse 1]
      E
Well, I had a friend named Ramblin' Bob
E
  Who used to steal, gamble and rob
E                                        A
  He thought he was the smartest guy in town
    A
But I found out last Monday, that Bob got locked up Sunday
     F#                               B7
They got him in the jailhouse way downtown


[Chorus]
N.C.                  E
He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now)
                      A
He's in the jailhouse now (he's in the jailhouse now)
  B7
I told him once or twice
        B7
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
                      E
He's in the jailhouse now

      E
Well, I went out last Tuesday
E
Met a girl named Susie
  E                                 A
I told her I was the swellest man around
         A
Well she started and to spend my money
    A
She started and to callin' me honey
   F#                          B7
We took in every honkytonk in town


[Chorus]
N.C.                   E
We're in the jailhouse now (we're in the jailhouse now)
                       A
We're in the jailhouse now (we're in the jailhouse now)
     B7
They told us once or twice
        B7
To quit playin' cards and shootin' dice
              E   E     E
We're in the jail-house now
