Am
Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
            Em            Am
And she warbles, as she flies

And she never, holler cuckoo
             Em         Am
Until the 4th day, of July

Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds
                Em           Am
You're the meanest, heart I know

Well you rob my, poor pockets
        Em             Am
Of the silver, and of gold

I'm going up, up on a mountain
           Em               Am
I'm gonna build me, a whiskey still

And I'll sell you, one bottle
        Em            Am
For a twenty, dollar-bill

I'm going up, up on a mountain
           Em             Am
I'm gonna stand, lookin' down

So I can see my, pretty baby
          Em                 Am
Whenever she, comes walking round

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
          Em              Am
And she warbles, as she flies

And she never, holler cuckoo
          Em            Am
Until the 4th day, of July

Well I'll eat, when I'm hungry
          Em              Am
And I'll drink, when I'm dry

And if some woman, don't shoot me
          Em            Am
Then I'll live, a long time

Jack of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds
           Em            Am
Well I've known you, of old

Well you rob my, poor pockets
          Em             Am
And you nearly, stole my soul

Oh the cuckoo, she's a pretty bird
           Em            Am
And she warbles, as she flies

Well she brings us, glad tidings
         Em             Am
And she never, tells no lies

                          Em          Am
Ohh-hoo-hoo, Mm-hmm-hmm, Mm-hmm, Mm-hmm-hmm
                          Em      Am
Mm-hmm-hmm, Mm-hmm-hmm, Mm-hmm, Mm-hmm
