6  6  -7    6 6  -7    -7  -7 -7 6
I was born in a cross fire hurricane
 6  6   -7   6  6  -7  6  6   -7 7    -7
And I howled at my ma in the driving rain
CHORUS
 6   6  b-7   -5    5   3  3     3  3 -3 -7
But it`s al--right now in fact it`s a gas
 6   6  b-7   -5      b6   6  6     6    6
But it`s al--right    I`m Jumpin` Jack Flash.
 6   6 -7    -7  -7
It`s a gas, gas, gas

I was raised by a toothless bearded hag
I was schooled with a strap right across my back
REPEAT CHORUS

6  6    -7     6  6   -7    -7 -7   -7  -7   6
I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead
6   6   -7   6  6  -7   6  6 -7    7   -7
I fell down to my feet and I saw they bled
 7  7   -8    6   6   -7    7 -7   7    7  -8
And I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread
7  7     -8    6   6   7     7      7   -7   -8
I was crowned with a spike right through my head
 6   6  b-7    -5    5    3   3     3  3  -3 -7
But it`s al-- right now.  In fact it`s a gas
 6   6   b-7   -5     b6   6 6      6    6
But it`s al-- right.  I`m Jumpin` Jack Flash
 6  6 -7   -7   -7
It` a gas, gas, gas.
