Chords for Josh Morningstar - Jerry Lee - Shaker Steps

[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ We were listening [Bm] to this podcast, [A#] Disgraced Land, [B] _ [Em] about [E] _
Jerry Lee Lewis, [F#] how his fourth
and fifth wives both died under [F#m]
[D] mysterious [Bm] circumstances.
_ _ The song pretty much wrote itself.
I wrote it with Jada Dreyer, a very [E] talented writer [Em] and singer from a smaller [G] place.
_ _ [A] Jerry Lee, [Bm] he was a maniac, man. _ _
Depending on how you really feel about it, he may or may not have [Em] actually gotten away with murder.
Yeah, man, I write songs because [F#] it's just kind of what I've always done.
I [E] wrote my first [Bm] one when I was nine.
It was called School I Don't Love.
I've lived quite the life, and that's where my songs come from.
[Em] I'm happily married with children now, so [F#] it's nice to reflect instead of [D] be [B] reality.
That's [N] nice.
_ _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Oh, I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Heavily insanity,
[F#m] Tickling jeans and [G#] ivories,
[N] Praise the Lord, Elvis, I, I, I,
[C#m] I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Pianos, pistols, tragedy,
[F#m] Pentecostal fury and a shot [A] of speed,
[G#] Singing great [C#m] balls of fire.
_ _ _ _ _ Well, if you don't know, then I'll learn you something,
They don't call me the killer for nothing,
[F#m]
Dangerous, a methamphetamine [G#] buzzy,
[N] Crazy enough to marry my first [C#m] cousin,
Touched by the devil, paranoid, hell-raised,
Fuck Chuck Berry, I'm the real [F#m] trailblazer,
People always staring like they're scared of [G#] me,
[C#m] For the record, they ought to be.
I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Heavily insanity,
[F#m]
Tickling jeans and ivories,
[G#] Praise [N] the Lord, Elvis, I, I, [C#m] I,
I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Pianos, pistols, head [F#m] screams,
Pentecostal fury and a shot of [G#] speed,
Singing great [C#m] balls of fire. _
_ _ _ _ Well, there's blood on the carpet, blood on the lamp,
Blood on the bed sheets, blood on my hand,
[F#m] This sort of thing might have happened [G#] before,
[G] That bad girl ain't bad [C#m] no more, I know I'm needy,
Sometimes jealous, I'm larger than life,
Baby, I can't help it,
[F#m] She knew what would happen if she tried [G#] to leave,
[A] Nobody walks out [C#m] on me,
I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Heavily insanity,
_ [F#m] Tickling jeans and ivories,
[G#] Praise the Lord, Elvis, I, [C#m] I, I,
I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Pianos, pistols, rest in [F#m] peace,
Pentecostal fury and a shot of speed,
[G#] Singing great [C#m] balls of fire. _
[F#m] Oh, seven wives, seven deadly [C#m] sins,
Four and five died, coincidence,
[F#m] DeSoto County, no [F#] evidence,
Cause and effect of [C#m] messing with,
Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
Inconclusive, [F#m] autopsy,
Who, what, where, why, it's a mystery,
[G#] But [B] it's all, all right,
[C#m] I'm Jerry Lee, Jerry Lee,
And the boys around here take care of me,
[F#m] They wouldn't dare try,
Depending on me and [G#] my great balls [C#m] of fire.
I [G#] sang great balls [C#m] of fire,
Still [G#] singing great [A] balls of fire.
