Intro: G Cadd9 G G Cadd9 G Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G G Cadd9 G Well it sure didn't take too long G Cadd9 G I woke up one morning, she was gone Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 And the note that she wrote didn't say "Dear John" G D G It said, "Goodbye, sucker, I'm gone!" G Cadd9 G She was a home-grown mountain girl G Cadd9 G Raised in a different world Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 I was a wanna-be rocker, she was more into Merle G D G I just couldn't see it wouldn't work Em Cadd9 And now I'm double fisting longnecks G Cadd9 and grapefruit and Stoli G D G But I'm never getting over Jolie Instrumental: G Cadd9 G G Cadd9 G Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G Well, I pulled myself in my car And I drove on down to the bar But they wouldn't let me in, because I ain't a movie star So I went to the Horseshoe on Lamar The bouncer threw me out at two And I didn't know what to do So I picked up the phone and I called guess who But the call block wouldn't let me through And now I'm wishing for some drugs Or a shrink to Console me but I'm never getting over Jolie Instrumental: G Cadd9 G G Cadd9 G Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G Well I gathered up all of my guns And a pipe bomb just for fun And I drove to her house and parked on the lawn She always thought I was a crazy one Well her boyfriend was sure nice to me He said, Calm down, would you like a drink? And then I shot him full of holes from his nose to his knees And I polished off my little sweet pea And now I'm cryin' on my knees, feelin' dirty and unholy But I'm never getting over Jolie Yeah I'll prob'ly get life and serve at least forty But I'm never getting over Jolie End: G Cadd9 G G Cadd9 G Em Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D G
