_ _ [D] _ _ Hello [G] everybody out there in cyberspace and all of our friends here in [C] the studio with us!
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] Jacob was a dirt poor farm boy
_ Raised at the fork in the road in a [C] clapboard house
_ _ _ _ _ Rachel was a land baron's daughter
_ Born with a silver spoon in her [G] _
mouth
_ _ _ _ Her daddy said he would stand
_ _ Rachel would waste her life with a [C] common man
_ _ _ _ [Am] He tried hard to keep them apart
[C] But you can't draw lines _ in a young [D] girl's heart
_ _ _ [C] So late one night by the hard moon
Jacob climbed the ladder to Rachel's room
[G] He knew his place, it was right beside _ _ her
_ _ _ [C] Step by step up to her world
And over hills for a brown eyed girl
[G] _
It's called _ _ _ Vincent's _ Ladder
_ _ _ [Am] Cause heaven was a-waitin' [D] at the top of [G] Jacob's ladder
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] It'll be five years to September
So daddy found a ladder and a note on her _ [D] _
windowsill
_ _ _ _ So he'd never forgive them
Nothing melts a heart like a [A] grandchild will
_ _ _ _ As he climbs upon his knee
_ Says grandpa tell a story, the one [D] about me
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] He thinks back and his eyes shine
[D] Says this little child wants a _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ _ ponytail
[D] Late one night by the hard moon
Daddy climbed the ladder to your mama's room
[A] He knew his place, _ it was right beside her
_ _ _ [D] And step by step up to her world
And over hills for my little girl
[A] Here you are, _ that's all that _ _ matters
_ _ [Bm] Cause heaven was a [E]-waitin' at the top of [A] Jacob's ladder
[E] _ [F#m] Well _ [Bm] when an angel was [E] waitin' at the top of [A] Jacob's ladder
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _

_ _ Oh yeah!
