NOTES:
||The picking pattern is too complex for me to write out, but is is
||important that you hammer on the third fret of first string and then off
||as you strike the bass G note
||the A before the chorus has a suspended lick in it
||listen for the 2nd string--it goes from fret 2 to 3 to 2 to 0
||(listen and you'll understand)
VERSE:
SOL REsus2 SOL RESUS2
Jacob's a fine boy but his parents don't get along
SOL REsus2
They hardly talk, when they do
MIm LA
He thinks he's done something wrong
SOL REsus2 SOL RESUS2
He heard all the screaming as he lay down to bed
SOL REsus2 MIm LA
He should have been sleeping but he listened instead
MIm LA
(chorus) They said he's fine, it's not his fault
RE SOL
Between the lines, he somehow got caught
MIm LA
And in our game, it's more like war
MIm LA
I just don't think I love you anymore
SOL REsus2 SOL RESUS2
He picked up the phone, his tears touched the receiver
SOL REsus2 MIm LA
His grandmother answered down in Tempe
SOL REsus2 SOL RESUS2
He told her the story - that his daddy was leaving
SOL REsus2 MIm LA
She tried to convince him it was nothing he'd done
MIm LA
(chorus) She said you're fine, it's not your fault
RE SOL
Between the lines, you somehow got caught
MIm LA
And in their game, it sounds more like war
MIm LA
I just don't think she loves him anymore
Jacob's a father and his kids are in teens
He's done what he could to make meager ends meet
When it comes down to family, it's the primary goal
To keep the thing working no matter the toll
His sons heard them screaming about something he said
He opened the door and invited them in
(chorus) He said now sons, it's not your fault
Between the lines you somehow got caught
So when you're hurt, you lean on a crutch
But I still love your mother very much
OUTRO: the same as chorus
