Tom T Hall - She Gave Her Heart To Jethro Chords

[G#m] _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ I _ _ _ _ guess you know [F#]
Jethro _ [B] went crazy, _ _ _ _ _ we've all been [F#]
crazy _ [B] _ sometime. _ _ _
_ They [E] fixed up his lungs and [B] his fever, _ _ [G#m] _
_ but [C#] they could not fix up _ [F#] his mind. _ _
_ He [B] married _ [F#] a _ beautiful [B] _ redhead. _ _
_ _ Of women _ they _ say [E] she's a pearl. _ _ _
_ She gave her heart _ [B] to Jethro [F#] _ [G#m] _
_ _ [B] and her body to [F#] the whole _ [B] damned world. _ _
_ _ Well Jethro [F#] had someone [B] to talk to. _ _
_ They were monsters _ [F#]
and little [B] green men. _ _
_ _ _ [E] He _ never talked to [B] his woman.
_ [G#m] _
_ _ [C#] Nah, he spent _ all his time [F#] with his friend. _
In [G#m] _ [F#] [B] the evenings _ [F#]
she'd drive off [B] and leave him. _ _
_ _ She _ tossed back her _ long [E] pretty _ curls. _
_ _ She gave _ her heart _ [B] to Jethro [F#] _ [G#m]
and _ _ [B] her body to the [F#] _ whole [B] damned world. _ _
_ _ Some friends [F#] came and begged her [B] to leave him. _ _
_ _ They said Jethro _ [F#] _
_ belongs [B] in a home. _ _
_ _ [E] She said my heart [B] is _ _ [G#m] Jethro's, _ _ [C#] but my _ God-given body _ [F#] is my own. _ _
_ _ _ [B] Now some _ [F#]
of her lovers [B] were strangers. _ _
_ _ She gave _ _ everybody _ [E] a world. _
_ _ She gave _ her heart _ [B] to Jethro [A#m] _ [G#m]
and _ [B] her body _ [F#] to the whole _ [B] damned world.
_ [G] _
_ [D] [G] I [C] know some will [G] condemn me [C] for writing _ this _ _ _ song _ [G] of a man and [C] his wife. _ _ _
_ _ [F] A man's not writing if [C] he can't [Am] relate _ [D] all the things that he sees [G] in his life. _ _ _
_ [C] I know some [G] will condemn me [C] for cursing. _ _ _
_ But _ much can be _ said [F] for this girl _ _
who gave _ her heart to [C] Jethro _ [G] _ [Am] _ _
and [C] her body to [G] the whole [C] damned world. _ _ _ _
