CHORUS:
Notes:
If you add "G" to Am, you're adding a b7, so the chord is actually Am7.
So, "Am/G" is also "Am7". But I wanted to highlight that the "G" is in
the bass.

Chords:
Am    x02210    F  x33211
Am/G  3x2010    E7 020130

      | Am   Am/G   | F             E7 |
Hit the Road Jack and don'tcha come back
 | Am      Am/G  | F       E7 |
No more no more no more no more,

      | Am   Am/G   | F             E7 |
Hit the Road Jack and don'tcha come back
 | Am  Am/G | F E7 |
No more

"What'd you say?"
