[D]
[A] Telling me
[C] to sail the seas for a hundred years
[G] Even if we're [D] all alone
Running deaf for twenty years
[A] I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears
[C] Searching the shores for my [D] Jackie O
I lived in a little town in the young nineteen
[A] Said to Jackie's God we were lost [Dm] in the rain
[C] And I ran to meet him
[D] Maybe he does
You're all wrong I said
And they said
If this son of mine knows that sea
He'll lay the back of his hand
[C] He'll be back sometime
I [D] think he will
There's time for [A] my man to come
Take his hand and mine
[C] And lead me away
To unseen [D] shore
I've been washing the sand with my salty tears
Searching the shore [A] these long years
[C] And I won't be seen [D] Often more
Till [C] I'm gone
Till I'm gone
My Jackie [D] O
Till [C] I'm gone
My Jackie [D] O
Till [C] I'm [D] gone
[C] Jackie [D] O
[C] Jackie [D] O
