Jackie Wilson Chords

(Version #1)
Hozier
[Intro]
 
B F# D B F# D
 
 
[Verse 1]
B                   F#                  D
So tired trying to see from behind the red in my eyes
B                    F#                 D
No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight
B                 F#                   D
So deep in this swill with the most familiar of swine
F#                    D
For reasons wretched and divine
 
B                 F#            D
She blows outta nowhere, roman candle of the wild
B         F#                      D
Laughing away through my feeble disguise
B                   F#                D
No other version of me I would rather be tonight.
     F#                  D
And, Lord, she found me just in time
 
[Pre-Chorus]
               F#                    D
Cause with my mid-youth crisis all said and done
               F#                           A      A#    B
I need to be youthfully felt 'cause, God, I never felt young
 
 
[Chorus]
B             F#               D
She's gonna save me, call me "baby"
                              B F# D
Run her hands through my hair
B               F#               D
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily
                             B F# D
Better yet, she wouldn't care
B               F#               D
We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives
                             B F# D
Ride 'round picking up clues
B                F#                  D
We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson
N.C.
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues
 
 
[Verse 2]
B               F#                             D
Lord, it'd be great to find a place we could escape sometime
B          F#                  D
Me and my Isis growing black irises in the sunshine
B                F#                          D
Every version of me dead and buried in the yard outside
          F#                 D
Sit back and watch the world go by
 
[Pre-Chorus]
B             F#            D
Happy to lie back watch it burn and rust
F#            D                   A     A#  B
We tried the world, good God, it wasn't for us
 
[Chorus]
 
B             F#               D
She's gonna save me, call me "baby"
                              B F# D
Run her hands through my hair
B               F#               D
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily
                             B F# D
Better yet, she wouldn't care
B               F#               D
We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives
                             B F# D
Ride 'round picking up clues
B                F#                  D
We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson
N.C.
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues
 
B F# D B F# D B F# D B F# A A# B
 
[Bridge]
B                    F#                       D
Cut clean from the dream that night, let my mind reset
B                    F#                  D
Looking up from a cigarette, and she's already left
B                        F#                            D
I start digging up the yard for what's left of me and our little vignette
      F#                   D
For whatever poor soul is coming next
 
 
[Chorus]
 
B             F#               D
She's gonna save me, call me "baby"
                              B F# D
Run her hands through my hair
B               F#               D
She'll know me crazy, soothe me daily
                             B F# D
Better yet, she wouldn't care
B               F#               D
We'll steal her Lexus, be detectives
                             B F# D
Ride 'round picking up clues
B                F#                  D
We'll name our children, Jackie and Wilson
N.C.
Raise 'em on rhythm and blues
