Spring Heeled Jim
(Morrissey/Whyte)

This is the second song off of -Vauxhall & I- and a pretty good one in my
opinion. I play this song with a capo on the fourth fret. The intro and
interlusions (if there is such a word) are this RIFF:

F Am

G-------------1-----------|-------------0-----------|
D-------1--------1--------|-------1--------1--------|
B---2------2-------2----2-|---2------2-------2----2-|
F-3---3---------------3---|-----2---------------2---|
C-------------------------|-0-----------------------|
G-------------------------|-------------------------|

E Am
Spring-Heeled Jim winks an eye
C D Dsus4
He~ll do, he~ll never be done to
E Am
He takes on whoever flew through
C D
Well it~s the normal thing to do

(ahhh)

RIFF

E Am
Spring-Heeled Jim lives to love
C D Dsus4
Now kissing with his mouth full
E Am
And his eyes on some other fool
C D
So many women, his head should be spinning

(oh but no)

RIFF

E Am
Spring-Heeled Jim slurs the words
C D Dsus4
There is no need to be so knowing
E Am
Take life at five times your average speed
C D Dsus4
Like I do
E Am
Until Jim feels the chill
C D Dsus4
Oh where did all the time go
E Am
Once always in for the kill
C
Now it~s too cold
D
And he feels too old

RIFF


(ending instrumental played with verse chords)


you may notice my deliberate use of Dsus4 chords and i justify that by
telling you that if you listen to the album closely, it has such a feel
for a Dsus4 chord.

for poor people who cannot afford capoes, i can sympathize, so i will
decode each chord into their correct names and their correct fingering,
but having a capo makes it so much easier. (the cheapest capo costs only
two dollars or maybe less). anyway:

E A D G B E
-----------
Capoed F = A 5 7 7 6 5 5
Capoed Am=Cm x 4 6 6 5 4
Capoed E = G 4 6 6 5 4 4
Capoed C = E x 7 9 9 9 x
Capoed D = F x x 4 6 7 6
Capoed Dsus4=Fsus4 x x 4 6 7 7


(questions, comments, phillipics, email me) bye-bye
