Franz Ferdinand: Jacqueline

Verse: Cm 
Jacqueline was seventeen

working on a desk when Ab 
Ivor

peered above a sBb 
pectacle,

forgot that he had wrecked a girl.

Cm 
 
Sometimes these Ab 
eyes

forget the face they're Bb 
peering from

when the face they peer upon
G 
 
Well, you know…

that face as Cm 
I do.

And how in the reAb 
turn of the gaze

She can reBb 
turn you the face

That you are sCm 
taring from


Solo: Cm 

Chorus: [: Cm 
 It's always 
Eb 
better on 
Bb 
holiday

Cm 
So much 
Eb 
better on 
Bb 
holiday

Cm 
That's why we 
Eb 
only 
Bb 
work when

Cm 
We 
Eb 
need the 
Bb 
money :] 
 

Bridge: Cm 
Gregor was down again

SaidAb 
 "Come on, kick me again"

SaidBb 
 "I'm so drunk I don't mind if you kill me"


Cm 
 
Come on you Ab 
gutless,

I'm aBb 
live, oh, I'm alive!

G 
 
Oh, I'm alive!

And how I Cm 
know it

but for Ab 
chips

and for Bb 
freedom I could 
Cm 
die
