[Verse]
A    Am 
Jimmy
    Em          
His secret's out
    A               Am                    Em        D 
The one he locked inside and denied every word about
     A      Am     Em          
He's guilty so his story claims
A               Am               Em           D 
Twisting in his seat he repeats alone his name
[Chorus]
             G    
Counting the words
  B7              Em  
Between his every line
          F                    Bb  
Searching miles and miles to define
C            Bb       C 
Just what it all means
[Verse]
Jimmy
As quiet as a church mouse
Painted every graphic scene, but with few details
His accomplice had made sure of this
When she sealed it with a bedspring kiss
And when her time had come to go
Jimmy washed all of the blood stains from her clothes
[Chorus]
But with a needle is his vein
He knew he could not explain
Just what it all means
[Chorus]
Counting the words between his every line
Searching mile and miles to define
Just what it all means
[Interlude]
[Chorus]
Counting the words between his every line
Searching mile and miles to define
Just what it all means
[Chorus]
Killing his time
A monkey in his vein
He knew he could not explain
Just what it all means
Just what it all means
