Spring Wind Jack Johnson
[D]I don't care if it rains or freezes
[G]as long as I've got my plastic Jesus
D A*
sitting on the dashboard of my car
[D]it comes in colors pink and pleasant
[G]it glows in the dark cause its iridescent
[D]I'll take it with me [A]whenever I go f[D]ar
[D]so give me my lady Madonna
[G]dressed in rhinestones and sitting on a
D A*
pedestal of abalone shells
[D]driving 90 but I'm not scared
[G]because I've got my Virgin Mary
[D]assuring me that I will [A]never go to h[D]ell
D (Plucking D string)
[D]And by the way You know that
[D]hope will make you strange
[D]Make you blink, make you blank, make you sink
[D]It will make you af[G]raid of change
[G]And often blame
[G]The box with the view of the world
[G]And the walls that fill the f[D]rame
[D]I turn it up
[D]but then I turn it off
[D]Because I can't stand when they start to talk
About the hur[G]ting and killing
[G]Whose shoes are we filling
[G]The damage and ruin
[G]Man, the things that we're doing
[D]
Good god, We gotta stop, we gotta turn it all off
[D]We gotta rewind
[D]and start it up again
A**
Because we fell across the fall line
[A]Ain't there nothing sacred any[G]more
[G]Nana nana nana n[D]a
G, D, G, D, G, D
[D]Somebody saw him jump
But nobody saw him slip
I guess he lost a lot of hope
And then he lost his grip
Now he's ly[G]ing in the freeway
In the middle of this mess
Guess we lost another one
Just like the other one
[D]Optimistic hypocrite
That didn't have the nerve to quit
The things that kept him wanting more
Until he finally reached the core
A**
He fell across the fall line
[A]Ain't there nothing sacred an[G]ymore
G, G, G
A**
We all fell across the fall line
[A]Ain't there nothing sacred an[G]ymore
[G]Na na na, na, nanan[D]a
G, D, G, D, G, D
[G]All my fri[D]ends are getting ol[G]der,
[A]I guess I must be [BM]too.
Without their love and kin[G]dness
[A]I don’t want I’ll do, Oh
[G]The wine bottle’s half em[D]pty
[A]The money’s all been s[BM]pent
We’re a cross between our pa[G]rents
And hi[A]ppies in a tent. OH,
Love[G] calls just like a wi[D]ld bird
[A]It’s just another [BM]day
Spring blew my [G]list of thi[A]ngs to do a[G]way.
D,G,D
[G]In a mucked up lovel[D]y river
[A]I cast my my little f[BM]ly
But I look at that river and I sm[G]ell it and
it ma[A]kes me want to cry, Oh
[G]To clean our dirty pl[D]anet
[A]Now there’s a noble w[BM]ish
Now I putting shoulder t[G]o the wheel
[A]Cause I wanna catch some fish, Oh
Love c[G]alls just like a wil[D]d bird
[A]It’s just another d[BM]ay
Spring blew my l[G]ist of th[A]ings to do a[D]way.
A* At this point Jack plucks the D string and strums A. Then covers the E string on
the second fret with his thumb, pluck and then strum A again.
A** Same as A* except cover E with thumb on 3rd fret, strum A, back to thumb on 2nd
strum A and go to G.
Hope this helps! If you listen to the song performed on “Weekend at the Greek” you
will hear what I am talking about.
