This song is way more complex and just strumming chords, but this at least gives you
some thing to go by.
There s also a tabbed out version here:

Verse One:
Remember last election,
Everybody was in action,
Tryin to find themselves a president
There was a man named Lawson,
From New York down to Boston,
Representing the colored people we had sent
Verse Two:
My brother was a voter,
also a great promoter,
goin round givin advice
They d go to the poll and vote
Instead of voting once he voted twice
Chorus:
He s in the jailhouse now
He s in the jailhouse now
We got him down town in jail
No one to go his bail
He s in the jailhouse now
