Bubba Shot The Jukebox       Mark Chesnutt 
 
G    
We were all down at Margie's bar  
G 
Telling stories if we had one 
G 
Someone fired the old jukebox up 
G 
The song sure was a sad one 
G 
A teardrop rolled down Bubba's nose  
G 
>From the pain the song was inflicting 
G 
And all at once he jumped to his feet  
G 
Just like somebody kicked him 
 
CHORUS: 
G                        D     G 
Bubba shot the juke box last night 
 D                            C       G 
Said it played a sad song it made him cry 
G                             D    C 
Went to his truck and got a forty five 
G                         D    G 
Bubba shot the juke box last night

G# 
Bubba ain't never been accused of being mentality stable 
G# 
So we did not draw an easy breathe  
G# 
until he laid that colt on the table 
G# 
He hung his head till the cops showed up 
G# 
They dragged him right out of Margie's 
G# 
Told him "Don't play dumb with us, son" 
G# 
"Know damn well what the charge is." 
 
 
CHORUS: 
G#                       D#   G# 
Bubba shot the juke box last night 
 D#                           C#       G# 
Said it played a sad song it made him cry 
G#                            D#   C# 
Went to his truck and got a forty five 
G#                       D#   G# 
Bubba shot the juke box last night 
 
 
A 
Well, the sheriff arrived with his bathrobe on 
A 
The confrontation was a tense one 
A 
Shook his head said, "Bubba Boy," 
A 
"You was always a dense one." 
A 
Reckless discharge of a gun 
A 
That's what the officers are claiming 
A 
Bubba hollered, "Reckless! Hell!"  
 A 
"I shot just where I was aiming." 
 
CHORUS: 
A                         E    A      
Bubba shot the juke box last night 
 E                            D        A                                       
Said it played a sad song it made him cry 
 A                            E    D                                  
Went to his truck and got a forty five 
A                         D               A 
Bubba shot the juke box  stopped it with one shot 
A                       E    A 
Bubba shot the jukebox last night 
D                        A 
Well he could not tell right from wrong 
  E                           A 
Through the teardrops in his eyes 
D                      A 
Beyond a shadow of a doubt 
          E          E7      A 
It was justifiable homicide 
A                         D               A 
Bubba shot the juke box stopped it with one shot 
A                        E    A 
Bubba shot the jukebox last night
