Jacqueline was seventeen, working on a desk
G# A#
When Ivor peered above her spectacle
A#7 A#7
Forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Cm G# A#
Sometime these eyes forget the face they're peering from
A#7 A#7
When the face they peer upon
G Cm
Well you know that face as I do
G#
And how in the return of the gaze
A# Cm
She can return you the face that you're staring from
