Jacksonville Skyline Lyrics

The guitar is tuned 1/2 step down so if you play in standard tuning just play on the key of B.
This tab is according to the album version.I've see videos of Ryan play this live recently and
he sometimes in the chorus does Am to G to F, but that is not how it is recorded in Pneumonia.
Well the banks of the river run through my hometown
Born on the dirt roads, and i scraped my knees
Well they paved the roads eventually
With neon signs and car dealerships and diners
The soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends
I saw the pretty women as I walked through town
Well I moved away soon as I turned sixteen
Figured I was old enough to go and work a job
Well i floated down main street pools of carlights
Overcame me wishin' I was still back home
The soldiers fill the hotels on the weekends
I saw the pretty women as I walked through town
Jacksonville's a city with a hopeless streetlight
Seems like you're lucky if it ever changes red to green
I was born in an abundance of inherited sadness
With 50 cent picture frames bought at a five and dime
I ended up a soldier on the weekend
Looking for a vacancy I wasn't able to find
Somewhere the night sky hangs like a blanket
Shoot it with my capgun just to make it seem like stars
Thank you
