[Verse 1]
Dm
Jackie left on a cold dark night,
A
telling me she'd be home.
C
Sail the seas for a hundred years,
G              Dm
Leaving me all alone.

Dm
And I've been dead for twenty years,
          A
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears.
C                                  Dm
Searching the shores for my Jackie ohh,

[Verse 2]
Dm
I remember the day the young men came,
           A
Said, "Your Jackie's gone, we got lost in the rain,"
      C                             Dm
And I ran to the beach, and laid me down.

Dm
"You're all wrong," I said, As they stared at the sand,
          A
"My woman knows that sea like the back of her hand,
          C                          Dm
She'll be back sometime, laughing at you."

[Verse 3]
Dm
And I've been waiting for all this time,
         A
for my woman to come, take her hand in mine,
    C                      Dm
and lead me away to unseen shores.

Dm
I've been washing the sand with my salty tears,
A
searching the shores, these long years.
         C                     Dm
And I'll walk the sea, forever more.

[Outro]
       C              Dm
Till I find my Jackie oh,
       C              Dm
Till I find my Jackie oh,
       C               Dm    C      Dm   C      Dm    C    Dm
Till I found my Jackie ohhh, Jackie ohh, Jackie ohhh.
