[Intro]
Em C G
Em D Cadd9
 
[Verse 1]
      G                             Cadd9  G
I was walkin' down the road 'bout a week ago
G                               D          C
Underneath the bridge where the long trucks roll
G                  Cadd9     G
Bright red letters caught my eye
          G                            D          C
Reading: "Jesse, do you miss me like I miss you tonight?"
 
[Chorus]
    Em                    C          G
Oh, Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
            Em                         C           G
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
    Em                 D             Cadd9
You made that bed, now you can sleep tight
Em                    C          G
Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
 
[Instrumental]
Em C G
Em D Cadd9
 
[Verse 2]
    G               Cadd9    G
You walk this earth full of regrets
       G                        D       C
Coulda killed that curse if you just confess
G                        Cadd9      G
Swore you'd love Jesse until you is dead
    G                     D           C
But only so much that you wrote it in red
 
[Chorus]
    Em                    C          G
Oh, Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
            Em                         C           G
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
    Em                 D             Cadd9
You made that bed, now you can sleep tight
Em                    C          G
Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
 
[Instrumental]
Em C G
Em D Cadd9
 
[Verse 3]
   G                       Cadd9    G
If you could go back you'd make your stand
        G                       D           C
And now Jesse got a girl with a ring on her hand
 
[Chorus]
    Em                    C          G
Oh, Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
            Em                         C           G
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
    Em                 D             Cadd9
You made that bed, now you can sleep tight
Em                    C          G
Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
      Em                    C          G
Well, Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
            Em                         C           G
When you're cryin' at the heavens with wool-covered eyes
    Em                 D             Cadd9
You made that bed, now you can sleep tight
Em                    C          G
Jesse don't hear you, neither do I
 
[Instrumental]
Em C G
Em D Cadd9
 
[Outro]
      G                             Cadd9  G
I was walkin' down the road 'bout a week ago
G                               D          C
Underneath the bridge where the long trucks roll

Hey man! Super happy some of his youtube songs are getting done now. I started working on How The Mighty Fall tonight. I've never made a tab before so hopefully, I can get it down well. Thanks so much for putting this one up!
