Bottleneck Jones

Intro Solo

(Verse 1)
You will find him there
Around the corner from Marcie Jay's
You will find him there most days
Just around the corner from Marcie Jay's;
Coaxing slow blues from the roadside
And he's got his rider by his side

(Verse 2)
He was sure he would make it big
But he was in a hurry to be that star
Everyone was sure he would make it big
But he was in a hurry to be a star;
Racing to a shortcut up fame's highway
'Til he lost his hand under a railway car

(Chorus)
Bottleneck Jones
Can tear you apart
With his slide guitar sounds

Bottleneck Jones
Can make it cry and sing
Playing the blues

And if you stop by for a nod and a smile
He's no longer alone

SOLO

(Verse 3)
One wonders what he's feeling inside
All he has on him is that sad, sad sweet smile
It's hard to figure out what he feels inside
All he has on him is that sad sweet smile
With his lived-in face of a thousand years
He knows what goes around comes back at you

(Chorus)
Bottleneck Jones
Tugs at your heartstrings
Playing boxcar guitar

Bottleneck Jones
Is a sidewalk star
With his bottle-hand stump
One hand guitar

And if you stop by for a nod and a smile
He is no longer alone

Outro Solo (in C)
