Verse 1
G
Jack
ie was my landlord,
we liked each other immediately
I was young when I moved to L .A.,
that was something she could see
C
by do ing the short stuff
Like take care of the lawn,
G
pin and trim the bougainvillea
Bathe and walk the dogs
G
From the start my fortitude
seemed to be up on trial
Coveted her I did,
which put me against the first few
commandments of the Bible
C
Each night before I slept
I prayed long to the Lord
G
My daily thought was of her,
where she lived with her second hubby
The only back cottage was mine
and though it had a basement
The whole damn thing was a cubby
into a room with a washer and a dryer
G
Friday morning she'd do her laundry
With an open robe, long legs,
D
Em
D
G
and no bra
Sometimes a perfect place
Nothing off, nothing tacky
Nothing faded, nothing wilted
I was a champ with Jackie
C
I could get close, so close
I could count all the things in her eyes
G
There were no other women,
where the sun came through in lines
She had a barber's straight edge
which glinted and made me blind
C
She'd cut my arm, stand back and smile
And when the tables would turn,
G
I'd heat it with the bake
G
I live inside my own head,
fueled by the passion in my own heart
And if I don't have work to do,
I tear myself apart
C
I bite my nails down to leave
finger and toes raw
G
No question I could go longer
Em
D
G
-huh
Relationship pieces started disappearing
from the foundation like in Jenga
Hobby number two relocated to Topanga
C
My groundskeeping remained true,
I'm old, I watered
I held the unruly back with a truss
G
until the next guy started coming by
D
It was just the dogs and us
G
Her nickname for me was simple
yet greater than plain old Tommy
Long lost sanguine would return
when I'd hear her call out
Oh Tommy, salami,
C
I dropped what I was doing
Wipe the grime with soap away
G
I find her all alone in her office
It makes me wonder
What having little something
Been such a blunder
C
This old town is a pool of idiots and sin
And worse, corruptible sin
G
Trying to be faithful only increases the
volume of the voice that says
C

What are you waiting for?
