*----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE--------------------------------* *This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the* *song. You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research.* *-----------------------------------------------------------------------------* Released on February 9th 2004, "Jacqueline" is the opening track from Franz Ferdinand's debut homonym album. The song's intro goes in crescendo to reach bright and rhythmic verses. The harmonies walk around 3 chords, making it a very easy song. Tabbed by Pelusteriano Contact at my UG profile Lyrics by Alexander Kapranos, Nicholas McCarthy & Bob Hardy (official lyrics) Music by Franz Ferdinand Key of C minor =========================================================================== NOTE: I've compared this tab with three live versions of the song, so I'm certain this is very accurate.

CmJacqueline was seventeen Working on a desk whenAb Ivor peered above a sBbpectacle
Forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Cm Sometimes these Abeyes forget the face they're Bbpeering from When the face they peer upon G Well, you know that face as CmI do And how in the reAbturn of the gaze She can reBbturn you the face That you are sCmtaring from
