Lyrics

Jack and Jill went up the hill to (C)fetch a pail of wa ter, so they say.

The (Bb)sub se quent fall was in e vi ta ble.

They (Bbm)nev er stood a chance.

They were writ ten that way.

(F)In no cent vic tims (C)of their sto (Bb)ry;

like (F)Ro me o and Ju

’twas writ ten in the (C)stars be fore they e ven met

that (Bb)love and fate and a touch of stu pi di ty would (Bbm)rob them of their hope of liv ing hap pi ly.

The (F)end ings are of ten a (C)lit tle bit gor (Bb)y.

I (F)won der why they did n’t just (C)change their sto (Bb)ry.

We’re (F)told we have to do what we’re (C)told, but sure (Bb)ly

(Bb)some times you have to be a (C)lit tle bit naugh (F)ty.

(Bb)Just be cause you find that life’s not fair, it (F)does n’t mean that you just have to (F)grin and bear it.

(Bb)If you al ways take it on the chin and wear it, (F)noth ing will change.

(Bb)E ven if you’re lit tle you can do a lot, you (F)must n’t let a lit tle thing like lit tle stop you.

(Bb)If you sit a round and let them get on top, you (C6)might as well be say ing you (A7)think that it’s o kay, and (A)that’s not (Dm)right!

And if it’s not (Dm)right,

you have to (Dm)put it (E7)right.

But (Gm7)no bod y else is gon na (C7)put it right for me.

(Am7)No bod y but me is gon na (D7)change my sto ry.

(Gm7)Some times you have to be a (C)lit tle bit naught (F)y.
