[E]Spring-Heeled Jim winks an [Am]eye

He~ll [C]do, he~ll never be [D]done to[Dsus4]

He takes [E]on whoever flew [Am]through

Well it~s the [C]normal thing to [D]do

(ahhh)

RIFF

[E]Spring-Heeled Jim lives to [Am]love

Now [C]kissing with his [D]mouth ful[Dsus4]l

And his [E]eyes on some other [Am]fool

So many [C]women, his head should be [D]spinning

(oh but no)

RIFF

[E]Spring-Heeled Jim slurs the [Am]words

There is [C]no need to be so [D]knowin[Dsus4]g

Take life at [E]five times your average [Am]speed

Like I [C]do[D] [Dsus4]

[E]Until Jim feels the [Am]chill

Oh [C]where did all the [D]time go[Dsus4]

[E]Once always in for the [Am]kill

Now it~s too [C]cold

And he [D]feels too old

RIFF

(ending instrumental played with verse chords)

you may notice my deliberate use of Dsus4 chords and i justify that by

telling you that if you listen to the album closely, it has such a feel

for a Dsus4 chord.

for poor people who cannot afford capoes, i can sympathize, so i will

decode each chord into their correct names and their correct fingering,

but having a capo makes it so much easier. (the cheapest capo costs only

two dollars or maybe less). anyway:

#        (Morrissey/Whyte)

#This is the second song off of -Vauxhall & I- and a pretty good one in my
#opinion.  I play this song with a capo on the fourth fret.  The intro and
#interlusions (if there is such a word) are this RIFF:
