Verse 1:
        F                          G
I saw a photo of you laughing in a bridesmaid's dress
    F                                             G
The bruised bags beneath your eyes said you could use some rest
   C                   G            F
My brother thought you never looked so hot
       Am7           G                          C*   G*  C*  G*    
But my brother, his tastes were always a little off

Verse 2:
           F                           G
There were photos of you hanging on to some guy's arm
          F                                   G
Sure he's taller and more handsome, but is he going bald?
  C            G            F
I know it's absurd to get upset
           C             G           F
I mean, I never really wanted you to begin with
               Am7         G                F
When all these men seem to see these things I don't
               Am7             G                 C*
I want to take back your tired beauty all for my own

Chorus:
G*          C*
Jessica, oh Jessica
        G*
What happened to us?
       F
Was it too much?
       G
Was it not enough?
      Am7
Was I happy then?
                F
I don't think I ever was

             F                         G
I found some photos in a shoebox I had tucked away

A vacation we had taken to Spirit Lake
         C                  G           F
You were young and wild and free in a bikini top
         Am7               G
I looked old and bored and stormy
                               C*
But hey, it's only a snapshot

Jessica, oh Jessica

What happened to us?
       F
Was it too much?
       G
Was it not enough?

I don't think I ever was

I don't think I ever was

And I'll never be
         G
No, I'll never be
