  			Intro 
F C F G 
 
            F   G 
No piece of sky 
              C 
For you Jimmy lad 
G 
They always blame him 
F                   C 
They knew Jimmy was bad 
    F 
His own fault entirely 
   C 
To die without sound 
G 
That's how it is 
    C 
One staring at the ground 

verse 1 
       C 
And he wears his isolation 
     F 
As a widow wears a shroud 
     G 
They hammered him with discipline 
C 
Screaming out loud 
C 
As they did with Jesus 
     F 
With hammer and with nails 
G 
Now the cell is quiet 
        C 
And the moonlight is pale 

            F   G 
No piece of sky 
              C 
For you Jimmy lad 
G 
They always blame him 
F                   C 
They knew Jimmy was bad 
    F 
His own fault entirely 
   C 
To die without sound 
G 
That's how it is 
    C 
One staring at the ground 

Interlude 
F C F G 

verse 2 
     C 
He's standing on the bedside chair 
    F 
The moonlight fills his cell 
G 
No one ever peeked 
   C 
In jimmy's private hell 
    C 
His only friend, a makeshift rope 
    F 
His only key, his only hope 
    G 
His neck breaks so easily 
       C 
And he doesn't make a sound 

            F   G 
No piece of sky 
              C 
For you Jimmy lad 
G 
They always blame him 
F                   C 
They knew Jimmy was bad 
    F 
His own fault entirely 
   C 
To die without sound 
G 
That's how it is 
    C 
One staring at the ground 

Interlude

verse 3 
    C 
His only friend, a makeshift rope 
    F 
His only key, his only hope

And he doesn't make a sound
