Remind me of Jack-A-Lynn

Lush hotels and pretty girls
C               G     Am       G
Won't share the misty mood I'm in

Dm               F
Silly, sad, I've never had

To write this before

Oh, Jack-A-Lynn

F              Dm     Am
Funny how long nights alone
Continues after the ad

And thoughts of Jack-A-Lynn

When phantoms tread around my bed
C        G        Am          G
To offer restless dreams they bring

Dm                         F
And it's just the time and place to 
find
     G           C
A  sad song to play
          G
