Standard (EADGBE)

or riff

Jackie Cane was everybody's sugar

or riff

She gave it all wherever it took her

They used her up before the sell-by date

To be so sweet was her only mistake

(walkdown --)

The only flower in a concrete garden

Destined to be the rock that wouldn't harden

or riff

Jackie Cane was everybody's sugar

or riff

She'd melt away if only she could have

Taken for granted, abused and drained

They ran her dry and, then it never rained

(walkdown --E)

She was the queen of the 25th hour

They looked so sweet but the after-taste was sour

or riff

Salty days for jackie cane (repeatedly)
