Mr Jones By The Mavericks. The record version is in A# so capo 3rd fret and play these
chords. Listen to track
for rhythm

G G
I wanna go across the river
G G
To the house on oldway road
G C G
Where my life began and ended all the same
G G
I remember Chris and Johnny
G G
childhood friends of mine
G A7
Who grew wise enough to
A7 D
learn to play the game

G G
As I walked up to the front yard
G G
There were children playing there
G C
And I thought someday this
C G
may be my home again
G G
But how soon I learned my lesson
G G
Through the windows they threw stones
G G
And said there's nothing
G D
left inside Mr. Jones


CHORDS REPEAT FOR NEXT TWO VERSES

I went next door to ask the neighbor
If they knew what happened here
To the place where all my memories remain
As they recalled and tried to answer
Tears rolled down their eyes
But the best reply they had was made in vain

Seems the folks that used to live there
Worked hard for all their means
But their means could never take them to an end
There was hope down in the city
Then a bank declined their loan
Now there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones

[Chorus]
Em Em
Can't you see that it's empty now
G G
And no one really cares
Em D
For even I must try to save my own
Em Em
You should turn around and get back on that
G
Lonely oldway road
C D
'Cause there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones

[Repeat chorus]

I'm going back across the river
To see if I can find
The place where life can start and end all the same
But no matter where I'm going it will dwell inside my bones
That there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones
No there's nothing left inside, Mr. Jones
