Jacqueline

[Verse 1]
Cm
Jacqueline was seventeen,
working on a desk
     Ab
When Ivor peered above a spectacle,
                   Bb6
forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Cm                Ab                           Bb6
  Sometimes these eyes forget the face they're peering from
                   Bb
When the face they peer upon
G                            Cm
 Well, you know that face as I do,
                 Ab
and how in the return of the gaze
                                         Cm          Cm
She can return you the face that you are staring from

[Verse 2]
Cm                          Ab
Gregor was down again, said,  "Come on,
kick me again"
      Bb6
Said, "I'm so drunk,
                        Bb
I don't mind if you kill  me
Cm             Ab
  Come on, you gutless
                Bb6             Bb
Yeah, I'm alive,   oh, I'm alive
G                        Cm
 Oh, I'm alive and how I know it
            Ab            Bb
Oh, but for chips and for freedom,
            Cm
I could die"
