JACKY KNEEBONE - JAYSON WATKIN
STANDARD TUNING, NO CAPO
[INTRO]
Em C Em C
[1st VERSE]
Em C Em
In the corner of the Dunlop Hotel sits a weathered old man,
Em C Em
Whose face looks like it's been around since time first began.
Em C
He's bent, he's burnt out, his hands constantly shake,
D C
From a love of the grog he could never forsake,
Em D G
And his five o'clock shadow's a few shades paler than grey.
Em C Em
A lifetime spent in the saddle has taken it's toll,
Em C Em
Riding away from a generation that somebody stole.
Em C
And the stories he tells are like novels from Verne,
D C
And his eyes light up like the cane fires burn,
Em D G
As he speaks of the stock routes, the camps, and good bosses he's known.
[CHORUS]
C G D G
So let me shout you a beer, roll you a smoke, raise my glass in salute to you, Jacky Kneebone
C G D C
Your face is forgotten, your legend untold, you're lost in the new world alone.
Em D G
But still rivers, stock routes and fresh horses will carry you home.
[BRIDGE]
Em C Em C
[2nd VERSE]
Em C Em
He sips on his rum and mumbles a few words to himself,
Em C Em
As a cocky young ringer comes and orders some booze from the top shelf.
Em C
Self-righteous and drunk he starts in on old Jack,
D C
In an angry unprovoked racist verbal attack,
Em D G
But the old man just sits there in silence and weathers the spray.
Em C Em
Still without word, Jacky awkwardly gets to his feet,
Em C Em
pushes his battered hat back on his head and begins to retreat.
Em C
But the abuse still comes quick and rains down on him fast,
D C
Till finally Jacky has taken his last,
Em D G
And a lightning fast crashing right blow brings an end to the storm.
G
And the old man looks down at the boy and he says...
Em C
How can you judge me when you don't even know me?
D C
Men far greater than you have fallen beneath me.
Em D G
And the very next words that you say should be I'm sorry Sir.
[CHORUS]
C G D G
So let me shout you a beer, roll you a smoke, raise my glass in salute to you, Jacky Kneebone
C G D C
Your face is forgotten, your legend untold, you're lost in the new world alone.
Em D G
But still rivers, stock routes and fresh horses will carry you home.
C G D G
He said let me shout you a beer, roll you a smoke, raise my glass in salute to you, Jacky Kneebone
C G D C
Your face is forgotten, your legend untold, you're lost in the new world alone.
Em D G
But still rivers, stock routes and fresh horses will carry you home.
