JACKSON DAVIS
As recorded by Casey Donahew
(From the 2022 Album BUILT DIFFERENT)
[Intro]
G C G D G
[Verse 1]
G C
Jackson Davis was a cold assassin
G D
He rode for the Rebel South
G C
He hated Cole Younger with a firin' passion
G D G
Thought Jessie James ran his mouth
C
He never gave a damn about the rhyme or reason
G D
He just loved the sight of blood
G C
He kept on killin' when the war was over
G
In the Douglas County mud
G
And he'd sing
[Chorus]
C G
"Hang me high from a tall, tall tree
D G
All I ever wanted was to live free
C G
Pour a bottle of whiskey over my bones
D G
Drive a wooden cross through a stack of stones
C G
And tеll all the girls not to cry
D G
Because I'll lovе 'em all until the day I die
G
'Til the day I die"
[Fiddle Solo]
G C G D G
[Verse 2]
G C
Jackson Davis was born in Kansas
G D
A preacher's son to a mother's saint
G C
His daddy learned that there's souls for savin'
