There's multiple key changes from 
F#m to Gb throughout the song but to
 make things easier I have kept
the same key and sharps/flats chord 
notation in the whole song - The 
chords listed are merely suggestions
 that
will work for a solo performance.

[Intro]
F#m7    G#m7    F#m7    G#m7    
                                
F#m7    G#m7     F#m7    G#m7  
                         Jack, 
           F#m
Jack

[Verse]
F#m        C#m7         F#m     
And if one day I should become, 
         C#m7          F#m    
a singer with a Spanish bum who 
           C#m7            F#m     
sings for women of great virtue
C#m7

F#m         C#m7        F#m     
I'd sing to them with a guitar I
          C#m7          F#m       
 borrowed from a coffee bar, Well 
         C#m7               F#m   
what you don't know doesn't hurt 
    C#m7
you
F#                      F#maj7   
My name would be Antoni-o and all
                    F#
 my bridges I would burn
And when I gave them some they'd 
F#maj7                    G#m7   
know I'd expect something in 
    C#7    G#m7    C#7
return
G#m                         G#mMaj7 
                    G#m7
I'd have to get drunk every night 
and talk about virili-ty
                               C#  
With some old grandmother that 
                       A#          
might be decked out like a 
   A#7
Christmas tree

D#m         A#m          D#m    
And no pink elephant I'd see, 
            A#m              D#m
though I'd be drunk as I could be
              A#m             
Still I would sing my song to me 
D#m          A#m           
about the time they called me 
       F#
"Jacky"

[Chorus]
           F#             F#maj7  
If I could be for only an hour, If
         F#        F#maj7     G#m
 I could be for an hour every day
G#m7       G#m    G#mMaj7         
G#m7    C# N.C.              F#    D
  E  F#m
If I could be for just one little 
hour,   Cute in a stupid ass way    
     Jacky

[Verse]
F#m      C#m7              F#m  
And if I joined the social whirl
            C#m7           F#m    
 became pro-curer of young girls, 
             C#m7            F#m  
then I could have my own 
   C#m7
bor-dellos
F#m       C#m7            F#m   
My record would be number one 
           C#m7           F#m     
and I'd sell records by the ton, 
         C#m7       F#m      C#m7
all sung by many other fellows
F#                             
My name would then be handsome 
F#maj7                         F#
Jack and I'd sell boats of opi-um
Whisky that came from 
F#maj7                    G#m7   
Twicken-ham, authentic queens and
        C#7    G#m7    C#7
 phoney virgins
G#m                      G#mMaj7    
                     G#m7           
               C#
I'd have a bank on every finger, a 
finger in every count-ry and every 
country ruled by me
                         A#      A#7
I'd still know where I'd wanna be
D#m          A#m           D#m  
Locked up in-side my opium den, 
           A#m           D#m
Surrounded by some china men
             A#m              D#m 
I'd sing the song that I sang 
            A#m                  
then, About the time they called me 
F#
"Jacky"

[Chorus]
           F#             F#maj7  
If I could be for only an hour, If
         F#        F#maj7     G#m
 I could be for an hour every day
G#m7       G#m    G#mMaj7         
G#m7    C# N.C.              F#    
F#m                  D  E  F#m
If I could be for just one little 
hour,   Cute in a stupid ass way  
(16 bars instumental)

[Verse]
F#m           C#m7           F#m
Now, tell me, wouldn't it be 
               C#m7        F#m    
nice, that if one day in para-dise
           C#m7           F#m 
 I'd sing for all the ladies up 
     C#m7
there
F#m            C#m7            
And they would sing along with 
F#m             C#m7           
me and we be so happy there to 
F#m              C#m7          
be, 'Cos down be-low is really 
F#m     C#m7
nowhere
F#                          
My name would then be 
F#maj7                             
"Jupi-ter" then I would know where 
F#
I was going
           F#maj7                  
Become all knowing, my beard so 
           G#m7    C#7    G#m7    
very long and flowing
C#7

G#m                            
G#mMaj7                        G#m7
If I could play deaf, dumb and blind
 because I pitied all man-kind
And broke my heart to make things 
C#                       A#  
right, I know that every single 
        A#7
night
D#m        A#m            D#m   
When my an-gelic work was 
              A#m           D#m
through, the angels and the Devil 
too
              A#m               
Could sing my childhood song to 
D#m           A#m                 
me, about the time they called me 
 F#
"Jacky"

[Chorus]
           F#             F#maj7  
If I could be for only an hour, If
         F#        F#maj7     G#m
 I could be for an hour every day
G#m7       G#m    G#mMaj7         
G#m7    C# N.C.              F#
If I could be for just one little 
hour,   Cute in a stupid ass way
