C7 Cm7
Jimmy
G7 Gm7
His secret's out
C7 Cm7 Gm F
The one he locked inside and denied every word about
C7 Cm7
He's guilty
G7 Gm7
So his story claims
C7 Cm7 Gm F
Twisting in his seat he repeats alone his name
Bb
Counting his words
D Gm
Between his every line
Bb7/Ab Db6/9 Bb5/Eb
Searching miles and miles to define
Ebsus4/Db Eb/Db Ebsus4/Db Eb7
Just what it all means
Jimmy
As quiet as a church mouse
Painted every graphic scene but with few details
His accomplice had made sure of this
When she sealed it with a bedspring kiss
And when his time had come to go
Jimmy washed all of the blood stains from her clothes
But with a needle is his vein
It became too hard to explain
Just what it all means
Counting the words between his every line
Searching mile and miles to define
Just what it all means

Bb
Counting his words
D Gm
Between his every line
Bb7/Ab Db6/9 Bb5/Eb
Searching miles and miles to define
Ebsus4/Db Eb/Db Ebsus4/Db Eb7
Just what it all means
Killing his time
A monkey in his vein
He knew he could not explain
Just what it all means
Just what it all means
