Jack Reminiscing

C             G         C
Well my pa was always in gloom
F       G               C
And his hat was made of raccoon
F      G            C
He was drunk in the afternoon
C            G
Nearly every day
C      G               C
And his mind was like a trap
F        G           C
Where he kept a hand-drawn map
F      G         C
How to get to the Arkansas flats
C                 G
From the lights of Broadway

F       G               C
And the holy men always say
F     G          C
We'll meet again someday
F       G               C
In that city beyond the stars
C           G
In a golden café

C             G       C
Oh my ma, she loved him so
F         G                 C
And she'd make him a cup of joe
F        G               C
And he'd drink it like an Eskimo
C                   G
As his children did play
C        G                    C
And she'd bake him a mincemeat pie
F        G                       C
And he'd drink when his mouth was dry
F      G                    C
And he died on the fourth of July
C             G
In a firework display

F       G               C
And the holy men always say
F     G          C
We'll meet again someday
F       G               C
In that city beyond the stars
C           G
In a golden café

C      G           C
Oh, I was an Eagle Scout
F     G                      C
With a trumpet, I'd stomp and shout
F      G                     C
And I'd sing of the Arkansas trout
C                    G
And I'd sleep in the hay, hey
C           G         C
But now I'm always in gloom
F      G              C
And my hat is made of raccoon
F       G             C
And I'm drunk in the afternoon
C            G
Nearly every day

F       G               C
And the holy men always say
F     G          C
We'll meet again someday
F       G               C
In that city beyond the stars
C           G
In a golden café
