Jack And Jill by Scott Mcwatt
Jack And Jill
CAPO 2
Intro
D (Dsus 4 hammer on)
Verse 1
D G
Sits alone in his chair by the fire
Bm A (Asus 4 hammer on)
Sips the whisky from his glass
D G
The old man savours every last taste
Bm A (Asus 4 hammer on)
Because he knows that it could be his last
Bm D
Starts to write a letter to his love
A G
He says I’m sorry darling I blame myself
Bm D
I can’t quite understand what you’re going through
A E
But I’ll try to carry on because there’s little left to do
E (Esus4)
There’s little left to do without you
Chorus
G D A
If you’re a bird then I’m a bird I don’t want to go on without you
G D A
Cos I’ll be Jack and you’ll be Jill I don’t think we’ve got far to go
D Dsus4
Verse 2
D G
She sits despondent in her world by the window
Bm A
Undiscerning the world outside
D G
As her memory’s are depleting
Bm A
She regresses and becomes more like a child
Bm D
And every person or relation that happens to be
A G
She knows she recognises but she just doesn’t see
Bm D
And sometimes when she looks at the old man
A
As he says I love you darling
E
She smiles because she knows she’s his darling
E (Esus4)
Chorus
G D A
If you’re a bird then I’m a bird I don’t want to go on without you
G D A
Cos Ill be Jack and you’ll be Jill I don’t think we’ve got far to go
Instrumental
G D A
G D A
Verse 3
Bm D
It’s been 60 years and now these winters are getting so cold
A G
I didn’t realise that we had grown so old
Bm D
If only the mind could rewind
A
Then she could go back to the old man
E
And they could share a glass of wine
Esus4 E
And find a way to pass the time
End Chorus
G D A
If you’re a bird then I’m a bird I don’t want to go on without you
G D A
Cos Ill be Jack and you’ll be Jill I don’t think we’ve got far to go
G D A
If you’re a bird then I’m a bird I don’t want to go on without you
