Happy Jack

The Who
Tab
★4.6(19)

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

intro riff

D D A7 D

The kids would all sing, he would take the wrong key

D D A7 D

So they rode on his head on their furry donkey

D

G

The kids couldn't hurt Jack

A

They tried and tried and tried

G

They dropped things on his back

Asus4 A Asus4 A

And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied

But they couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping

And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

| A | D | A | D | A | D | A | D Dsus4 |

But they couldn't stop Jack, or the waters lapping

And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy

| A | D | A | D | G | A D | G |

| A A | A A | A A | A A | A.......

The kids couldn't hurt Jack

They tried and tried and tried

They dropped things on his back

And lied and lied and lied and lied and lied

But they couldn't stop Jack or the waters lapping

And they couldn't prevent Jack from feeling happy
