[C#m] Well, Cuckoo, she's a pretty bird [C#] And [G#] she warbles as she [C#] flies
Oh, she never says nothing Till the [G#] last day of [C#m] July
Well, Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds [C#] Man, I know you, I know [C#m] you of old
Robbed my pocket, robbed my pocket Of their [G#m]
silver and [C#m] their gold
Well, for working, I'm too lazy And for [G#] begging, that's too [C#m] low
And train robbing, that's too dangerous So [G#m] to gambling [C#m] did I go
Well, I gambled down in England And [G#] I gambled down in [C#m] Spain
And it never brought me nothing But [G#m] this feel good [C#m] and this pain
I'm [G#m]
