[Verse 1]
Gm         Dm7            Gm            Dm7            Gm
And if one day I should become a singer with a Spanish bum
              Dm             Gm    Dm7
Who sings for women of great virtue
Gm          Dm7            Gm               Dm7           Gm
I'd sing to them with a guitar I'd borrowed from a coffee bar
               F7                 Bb       D7
Well, what you don't know doesn't hurt you!
G                    Gmaj7                           G6
My name would be Antonio and all my bridges I would burn
                               Gmaj7            G             Am7  D7  Am7  D7
And if I gave them some they'd know I'd expect something in return
Am                          Ammaj7                    Am7
I'd have to get drunk every night and talk about virility
                                                D7        B
With some old Grandmother who might be decked out like a Christmas tree
Em              Bm            Em                 Bm7              Em
And though pink elephants I'd see, though I'd be drunk as I could be
               Bm7            Em            D7                  G
Still I would sing my song to me about the time they called me Jackie
 
 
[Chorus]
D7          G
If I could be for only an hour
                         G#dim  Am7
If I could be for an hour every day
D7         Am7          D7         Am7
If I could be for just one little hour
             D                    Gm  Dm7  Gm Dm7
cute, cute, cute in a stupid ass way * *| * * * * |
 
 
[Verse 2]
Gm        Dm7               Gm              Dm7            Gm
And if I joined the social whirl, became procurer of young girls
              Dm             Gm    Dm7
Then I would have my own bordellos
Gm         Dm7            Gm               Dm7            Gm
My record would be number one and I'd sell records by the ton
             F7        Bb   D7
All sung by many other fel-lows
G                             Gmaj7                          G6
My name would then be Handsome Jack and I'd sell boats of opium
                             Gmaj7              G                Am7   D7  Am7  D7
Whisky that came from Twickenham,   authentic queers and phoney virgins
Am                        Ammaj7                      Am7
I'd have a bank on every finger, a finger in every country
                                              D7               B
And ev'ry country ruled by me I'd still know where I'd want to be
Em          Bm            Em             Bm7           Em
Locked up inside my opium den surrounded by some Chinamen
              Bm               Em             D7                    G    D7
I'd sing the songs that I sang then about the time they called me Jackie
 
 
[Chorus]
D7          G
If I could be for only an hour
                         G#dim  Am7
If I could be for an hour every day
D7         Am7          D7         Am7
If I could be for just one little hour
             D                    Gm Dm7 Gm Dm7
cute, cute, cute in a stupid ass way * *| * * * * |
 
 
[Verse 3]
Gm          Dm7            Gm               Dm7        Gm
Now tell me wouldn't it be nice that if one day in Paradise
           Dm             Gm     Dm7
I sang for all the ladies up there
Gm              Dm7            Gm              Dm7            Gm
And they would sing along with me, we'd be so happy, there to be
             F7           Bb     D7
'Cos down below is really no-where
G                      Gmaj7                                G6
My name would then be Jupiter and I would know where I was going
                        Gmaj7           G               Am7  D7  Am7  D7
And I would become all knowing and my beard so long and flow-ing
Am                         Ammaj7                        Am7
If I became deaf, dumb and blind because I pitied all mankind
                                                        D7           B
And broke my heart to make things right  I'd know that every single night
Em        Bm             Em                 Bm7            Em
When my angelic work was through the angels and the Devil too
               Bm7              Em            D7                  G     D7
Would sing my childhood song to me about the time they called me Jackie
 
 
[Chorus]
D7          G
If I could be for only an hour
                         G#dim  Am7
If I could be for an hour every day
D7         Am7          D7         Am7
If I could be for just one little hour
             D                    Gm  Dm7  Gm Dm7
cute, cute, cute in a stupid ass way * *| * * * * |
