Chorus 1:

F6      Dm         Cmaj7                    F
 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; when are you coming back?
F6      Dm         Cmaj7                    F            G7
 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; when are you coming back?

Verse 1:

C   F/C      C           F/C
 My arms are missing you;
C   F/C           Dm7       G7
 My lips feel the same way, too.
C  F/C      C               F/C
 I tried so hard to be true,
C   F/C   C               F/C
 Li-ike I promised I'd do.
C         F/C       C             F/C
 But this boy keeps coming around,
C               F/C        C             F/C
 He's trying to wear my re-sistance down.

Chorus 2:

 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; when are you coming back?

 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; you better hurry back.

Verse 2:

C   F/C      C            F/C
 He calls me on the phone;
C      F/C   Dm7     G7
 About three times a day.
C       F/C          C            F/C
 Now my heart's just listening to,
C        F/C    C   F
 What he has to say.
         C          F/C     C           F/C
But this loneliness, that I have within;
      C            F/C C             F/C
Keeps reaching out, to be his friend.

Chorus 3:

 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; when are you coming back?

 Jimmy, Jimmy, oh, Jimmy Mack; you better hurry back.

 Need your loving,                 F/C         G7
           (Jimmy Mack; you better hurry back).

                  I wanna say...

Verse 3:

C        F/C     C            F/C
 I'm not getting any stronger;
C        F/C       C         F/C
 I can't hold out, very much longer.
C            F/C C           F/C
 Trying hard,     to be true,
    C               F/C     C            F/C
But Jimmy; he talks just as sweet as you.

Hey, Jimmy Mack; you better hurry back.

 I can't hold out, very much longer.

 Jimmy Mack; when are you coming back?...
