Lyrics

(Bbm)What have I (Bbsus)done?

(Bbm)What have I (Bbsus)done?

(Bbm)How could (Ab)I (Bbm)be so (Ab)blind?

(Em)All is (Csus)lost.

(Em)Where was (Fm)I?

(Bbm)Spoiled (Fm)all, (Ab)(Bbm)spoiled (Fm)all,

(Gb)(Fm)ev'rything's (Gb)gone all (F)wrong.

(Bbm)What have I (Bbsus)done?

(Bbm)What have I (Ebm)done?

(Bbm)Find a deep (Bbdim)cave to hide (Adim)in.

(Bbm)In a (Dbm)million (Gb)years they'll (Adim)find me,

(Gm)only dust (Ebdim7)and a (D)plaque that reads "Here lies (Dsus)poor (D7)old (Gm)Jack!"

But I (Am)never intended all this (E)madness,

never. And (Em)nobody really (Cm)understood, (well how could they?)

that (C#m)all I ever wanted was to bring them something great.

Why does nothing ever turn out like it should?

(F#7)Well, (Bm)what the (G)heck, I went and (Em)did my (F#7)best.

And, by (G#m)God, I really tasted something (D#)swell.

For a (C#m)moment, (F#m6)why, I even (Gdim7)touched the (Ab)sky.

And at (Bbm)least I left some (F7)stories they can (Bbm)tell.

I did!

And, for the (F7)first time (Gb)since I don't (Abm)remember (Gdim7)when,

I'd felt (Bbm)just like my (Cdim7)old bony (Bbm)self (F7)again.

And (Gdim7)I, (Bbm)Jack, the Pumpkin King!

And I (Am)just can't (B7)wait until next (F)(E)Halloween 'cause I've (F#m)got some new (Fm)ideas that will (Am)really make them (Fm)scream.

And, by (Bbm)God, I'm (Gdim7)really gonna (Bbm)give it all my (Gm)might!

I (Bbdim7)hope there's still (B)time to (Em)set thing's (Ebdim7)right!
