F#

F# G# D#m C# F#

[Verse 1]
F#
Oh look at me
         G#
That sweet boy's plea
       D#m
His mother cried
       C#                     F#
"My child's tied his laces"
        F#
Why must we move on
          G#
From such happy lawns
           D#m
Into nostalgia's palm
        C#                F#
And feed on the traces

[Verse 2]
             F#
Do you hop to the dance
       G#
Or embarrass the parents
                    D#m
Who should I please?
            C#      F#
I go to sleep worrying

          F#
That blood in the dark
        G#
Will attract the sharks
                     D#m
Who are not violent
      C#                       F#
We all have hungry bellies

[Pre-Chorus]
D#m                       F#
But where are the still unborn
                  D#m     C#               F#
Who could look at me with their brown eyes
                  D#m     C#               F#
Who could look at me with their blue eyes
               D#        C#               F#
And you look at me with me in their eye

[Chorus]
         F#
And whats pain
        G#                      D#
And whats sadness anyway?
     C#                    F#
Its not crying like a child
F#
And whats graying?
        G#                 D#m
And whats aging anyway
      C#                    F#
Its not growing in the wild

[Pre-Chorus]
D#m                     F#
But I feel like I've just been born
                 D#m     C#                  F#
When you look at me with your green eyes
                 D#m     C#                  F#
When you look at me with your black eyes
               D#        C#               F#
And you look at me with your dead eyes

[Verse 3]
                F#
And I can understand
           G#
When holding her hand
      D#m
So womanly
   C#                     F#
I have to go and kiss her
        F#
And what a surprise
      G#
To look in those eyes
                D#m
And find suddenly
      C#               F#
He is Jack the Ripper
        Dm#              C#              F#.
Too suddenly, he was Jack the Ripper

[Outro]
D#m     C#               F#
Stop crying like a child
D#m                C#                F#
She stopped crying like a child
D#m C#         F#
         Jack the Ripper
