A D A When we first met I didn't know what to do
D A My old love lines were all worn out on you
D D/C# Bm And the world walked round at my mouth
A E A They lit me up and they snuffed me out Chorus
A E A And I was everybody's boy
D D/C# Bm But soon that thrill just fades
D E A E F#m To be the love of one true heart
D E A Or the Jack of all parades [Do opening riff here]
A You won't know who to thank
D A You won't know who to blame
D A It's just a part of the Murdering Game Cos down in the fleshpots
D A Where they pay you in pounds They're laughing like drains
D A And baying like bloodhounds
D D/C# Bm For the Jack of all parades
D E A A7 The Jack of all parades
D Once I knew a girl
Dm That looked so much like Judy Garland
A That people would stop and give her money
D Dm And everybody was Frankie, Jimmy or Bobby
A E Not the Jack, the Jack of all Parades,
A D E Oh the Jack, the Jack of all Parades,
A E A Oh the Jack, of all Parades. [Intro riff again]
A D A Now the way that I feel is no longer news
D A You know my love and how to refuse it Cause you know where the door is
D A And how to use it
D D/C# Bm Oh you know you do
A But from my chequered past
D A To this shattered terrace Where you can't keep your mind off
D A the Crimes of Paris And you can't keep your peace
D A And try to forget it And I can't forgive you
D A For things you haven't done yet
A E A Oh I was anybody's boy
D D/C# Bm But soon that thrill just fades
D E A E F#m To be the love of one true heart
D E A Or the Jack of all parades A [tacet] When we first met I didn't know what to do A [tacet] My old love lines were all worn out on you
D D/C# Bm And the world walked 'round my mouth
A I didn't mean to say it
E A I just blurted it out
D D/C# As you pretended not to notice
Bm Or be taken aback
E A And I loved you there and then
E A It's as simple as that
A E A Oh I was everybody's boy
D D/C# Bm But soon that thrill just fades
D E A E F#m To be the love of one true heart
D E A Or the Jack of all parades
A E A E F#m To be the love of one true heart
D E A Or the Jack of all parades
D E A Oh the Jack of all parades
