G 
I guess
I'm just Jill's jack -in -the -box,
C 
Am 
her puppet on a string
C 
C#dim 
G 
All she does is touch my heart
E 
A 
D 
and I  pop out and sing
G 
With painted nose and buttoned clothes,
C 
Am 
she treats me like a clown.

G 
I'm just Jill's joyful   jester,

lots of fun to have around.

instead of her buffoon.
Em

Then I   could sing her love songs
A

and not some silly tune
G 
I know she doesn't really care
Am 
C

that I love her like I   do

as long as  she wants me to

just like a boresome toy.
C 
C#dim 
G 
But when she snaps her fingers,
E 
A 
D 
I  come leaping out with joy.
G 
She's cast me in the role of a fool,
C 
it's not what I prefer.
Am 
C 
C#dim 
I   know I'm just Jill's
G

jack -in -the -box,
