D
Jackie left on a cold dark night,
A
telling me she'd be home.
C
Sail the seas for a hundred years,
G               D
Leaving me all alone.
D
And I've been dead for twenty years,
           A
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears.
 C                                  D
Searching the shores for my Jackie ohh,

I remember the day the young man came
Said, "Your Jackie's gone, he got lost in the rain"
And I ran to the beach
And laid me down
"You're all wrong,"
I said and they stared at the sand
"That man knows that sea like the back of his hand
He'll be back some time
Laughing at you"

And I've been waiting all this time
For my man to come, take his hand in mine
And lead me away
To unseen shores
I've been washing the sand with my salty tears
Searching the shore all these long years
And I'll walk the seas forever more
'Til I find my Jackie-oh

        C             D
Till I find my Jackie oh,
        C              D
Till I find my Jackie oh,
        C               D     C      D
Till I found my Jackie ohhh, Jackie ohh,
 C      D   C D
Jackie ohhh.
