Jackie And Wilson Cifras

Jackie and Wilson – Hozier
 
Capo 1
 
 
[Intro]
 
C  Dm F  (C/E)
C  Dm Em F (C/E)
 
 
[Verse]
 
C           Dm                          F            (C/E)
So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes
C                    Dm         Em         F         (C/E)
No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight
C                Dm  Em             F
So deep in the swill with the most familiar of swine
      Dm          F      C
For reasons wretched and divine
 
C          Dm                    F               (C/E)
She blows out of nowhere roman candle of the wild
C         Dm     Em         F           (C/E)
Laughing away through my feeble disguise
C            Dm        Em             F
No other version of me I would rather be tonight
     Dm              F    C
And lord she found me just in time
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
               Am      E            F
Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done
               Bb                          Bb    B   C
I need to be youthfully felt 'cause god I never felt young
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C         Dm                   F                                 (C/E)
She's gonna save me, call me 'baby', run her hands through my hair
C         Dm                     F
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily, better yet she wouldn't care
Am          G       Em        F                                  (C/E)
We'll steal a Lexus, be detectives, ride 'round picking up clues
C          Dm                       F
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, raise 'em on rhythm and blues
 
 
[Verse]
 
C             Dm                         F               (C/E)
Lord it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime
C           Dm  Em     F                           (C/E)
Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine
C                Dm  Em              F
Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside
Dm                 F        C
Sit back and watch the world go by
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
      Am   E              F
Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust
Bb                               Bb    B  C
We tried the world good god it wasn't for us
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C         Dm                   F                                 (C/E)
She's gonna save me, call me 'baby', run her hands through my hair
C         Dm                     F
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily, better yet she wouldn't care
Am          G       Em       F                                  (C/E)
We'll steal a Lexus, be detectives, ride 'round picking up clues
C          Dm                       F
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, raise 'em on rhythm and blues
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Am   Em F   Em F   Em  C
Am   Em F   Em F   Em  C
Am   Em F   Em F   Em  C
Dm   Bb B C
 
 
[Verse]
 
C            Dm                    F               (C/E)
Cut clean from the dream at night let my mind reset
C               Dm                   F           (C/E)
Lookin' up from a cigarette and she's already left
C                     Dm   Em                 F
I start diggin' up the yard for what's left of me and our little vignette
Dm                      F  C
For whatever poor soul is coming next
 
 
[Chorus]
 
C         Dm                   F                                 (C/E)
She's gonna save me, call me 'baby', run her hands through my hair
C         Dm                     F
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily, better yet she wouldn't care
Am          G       Em      F                                  (C/E)
We'll steal a Lexus, be detectives, ride 'round picking up clues
C          Dm                       F
We'll name our children Jackie and Wilson, raise 'em on rhythm and blues
