I-- was born in- a-- cross-fire hurricane- 
<-3 <-3   -5  <-3 <-3 -5 <-3 <-3  -5 <-5  -5
And I-- howled at my- ma in- the driving rain 
<-3 <-3  <4   <3   <-3 <-3 <-3   <-3 <-3 <-3 
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a- gas!

But it's all right, I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash

It's a- gas! Gas! Gas!

I-- was raised by a-- toothless, bearded hag 
<-3 <-3    -5    <-3 <-3 -5    <-3  <-3 -5 <-5 -5
I-- was schooled with a strap right across my back 
<-3 <-3  <4   <3   <-3 <-3 <-3   <-3 <-3 <-3 
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a- gas!

I-- was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead

I-- fell down to my- feet and I-- saw they bled

I- frowned at the crumbs of a- crust of bread

I- was crowned with-- a-- spike right thru my head-

But it's all right now, in fact, it's a- gas!
