Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]Saturday night
and you're [F]still hangin' around
[C]Tired of living in you[F]r one horse town
[C]You'd like to find a little
[F#dim]hole in the grou[F]nd
For a [Em]while[G]
[C]So you go to the village
in [F]your tie-dye jeans
[C]And you stare at the junkies
[F]and the closet queens
[C]It's like some pornographic mag[F]azine
And you [Em]smile[A]

[Chorus 1]
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you high [G]tonig[A]ht
[D]And take you to [A]your spe[F#m]cial is [G]land
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you by to[G]nig[A]ht
[D]Just a little pus[A]h, and you[F#m]'ll be smi[G]lin'

[Interlude 1]
[C]Oh [F]yeah
[C][F]

[Verse 2]
[C]Your sister's gone out,
[F]she's on a date
[C]You just sit at home
[F]and masturbate
[C]Your phone is gonna ring soon
But you [F]just can't wait
For that [Em]call[G]
[C]So you stand on the corner
in your [F]New English clothes
[C]And you look so polished
from your [F]hair down to your toes
[C]Ah but still your fingers gonna [F]pick your nose
After [Em]all[A]

[Chorus 2]
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you high [G]tonig[A]ht
[D]And take you to [A]your spe[F#m]cial is [G]land
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you by to[G]nig[A]ht
[D]Just a little pus[A]h, and you[F#m]'ll be smi[G]lin'

[Interlude 2]
[C]Oh [F]yeah
[C][F]

[Verse 3]
[C]So you decide to take a h[F]oliday
[C]You got your tape deck
and your [F]brand new Chevrolet
[C]Ah, there ain't no place to go [F]anyway
What [Em]for?[G]
[C]So you got everything,
[F]ah, but nothing's cool
[C]They just found your father
[F]in the swimming pool
[C]And you guess you won't be going
[F]back to school
Any[Em]more[A]

[Chorus 3]
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you high [G]tonig[A]ht
[D]And take you to [A]your spe[F#m]cial is [G]land
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you by to[G]nig[A]ht
[D]Just a little pus[A]h, and you[F#m]'ll be smi[G]lin'

[Interlude 3]
[C]Oh [F]yeah
[C][F]

[Verse 4]
[C]So you play your albums,
[F]and you smoke your pot
[C]And you meet your girlfriend
in the [F]parking lot
[C]Oh but still you're aching
for the things you haven't [F]got
What went [Em]wrong[G]
[C]And if you can't understand
why your [F]world is so dead
[C]Why you've got to keep in style
[F]and feed your head
[C]Well you're 21 and still
your mother makes [F]your bed
And that's too [Em]long[A]

[Chorus 4]
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you high [G]tonig[A]ht
[D]And take you to [A]your spe[F#m]cial is [G]land
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you by to[G]nig[A]ht
[D]Just a little pus[A]h, and you[F#m]'ll be smi[G]lin'

[Chorus 5]
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you high [G]tonig[A]ht
[D]And take you to [A]your spe[F#m]cial is [G]land
[D]Captain Jac[A]k will get[F#m] you by to[G]nig[A]ht
[D]Just a little pus[A]h, and you[F#m]'ll be smi[G]lin'
