Capo 3 (Key of F) (
If you don t want to play the Bm, transpose down 2 steps and put your capo on 5.
He asked me for a dollar, I said go get a job
I turned up my collar and started walking off
He said I don t blame you, I know what you think
I ll just spend your money to buy another drink
Chorus:
But you don t know Jack, Double shoot, 80 proof on the rocks
Until you ve lost it all and you can t go back
To your life and your kids and your ex-wife with just a telephone call
If you think is just a bottle in an old brown paper sack, you don t know Jack
He showed me a picture of two little girls
Wearin Easter dresses, hair done up in curls
He said God bless their mama, she said I couldn t stay
But buddy if you re wondering, how could I throw it all away
Chorus:
You don t know Jack, Double shoot, 80 proof on the rocks
Until you ve lost it all and you can t go back
To your life and your kids and your ex-wife with just a telephone call
If you think is just a bottle in an old brown paper sack, you don t know Jack
Bridge:
If you ve never felt a fire running through your veins
If you ve never seen the devil face to face
Chorus 2:
You don t know Jack, double shoot, 80 proof on the rocks
Till you ve lost it all, so brother just be glad
And tonight, hold your kids, kiss your wife and when you talk to God
Count up all your blessings and thank the Good Lord that you don t know Jack
No you don t know Jack
