SONG: Jack's Lament ARTIST: Danny Elfman From the musical, The Nightmare Before Christmas
There are A#mfew who'd deF/Any C#/G# Gm9b5 At what I do I am the best For my F#talents are Frenowned far and D#mwide When it Ccomes to suC#dim7prises On a C/Emoonlit D#m/A#night I exC7cel without ever even F7trying
With the D#mslightest little A#7effort Of my D#mghost like Fdimcharms I have D#mseen grown men give out a Eshriek With the G#dimwave of my D#mhand And a A#7well placed D#mmoan I have swept the very A#7bravest off their D#mfeet
Yet A#7year after Bmyear It's the Esame rouD#dim7tine And I A#grow so weary Of the D#dim7sound of A#7/Fscreams And F#dim7I D#mJACK..THE PUMPKIN KING Have B7grown so A#7tired of the F#dimsame D#dimold A#thing
Oh D#dim7somewhere Gmdeep inA7/Gside of these Embones An Am6emptiEmness beAm6gan to Emgrow There's D#dim7something Gm/Dout there A/C#far from my Em/Bhome A Am6longing Em6that I've B7never Em6known
Em B/D# G/D C#m9b5 I'm a master of fright and a demon of light
And I'll Cscare you right Bout of your Ampants To a F#guy in KenGdim7tucky, I'm F#/A#Mister UnAm/Elucky And I'm F#7known throughout England and BFrance
And Amsince I am Bdimdead, I can Am/Ctake off my Ddimhead To reAmcite Shakesperean quoA#tations No Ddim7animal nor Amman can E7SCREAM like I Amcan With the fury of my E7reciAmtations
But E7who Fmhere would A#ever underAdim7stand That the E7Pumpkin King with the Am6skeleton E7/Bgrin Would Cdim7tire of his Amcrown, If they F#m/C#only C#7undersF#mtood He'd D7give it all C#7up, if he F#monly D C#(b9) C# (no5) could....
Oh Fdim7theres an Amempty B7/Aplace in my F#mbones That Bm6calls out F#mfor someBm6thing unF#mknown The Fdim7fame and Am/Epraise come B/D#year after F#m/C#year Does Bm6nothing F#m6for these C#7empty F#mtears....
