  Am
  You're in for surprise,

  you're in for a shock

  in Londontown streets

  when there is darkness and fog.
       C           G
  When you least expect me
      F             E         A
  and you turn your back I'll attack

  I smile when I'm sneaking

  thru shadows by the wall

  I laugh whilst I'm creeping

  though you won't hear me at all.
  C          G
  Oh hear my warning
  F               E
  never turn your back
         A
  on the ripper

  You'll soon shake with fear

  never knowing if I'm near

  I'm sly and I'm shameless

  nocturnal and nameless
  C                G
  except for the ripper

  or if you like

  Jack the knife

  A
  On a back alley street

  is where we'll prob'ly meet

  underneath a gas lamp

  where the air is cold and damp

  I'm a nasty surprise
        F
  I'm a devil in disguise
        E
  I'm a footstep at night
  A
  I'm a scream out with fright
  C           G
  Oh, hear my warning,
  F               E
  never turn your back
         A
  on the ripper
