[F] [C] [G] [C]
Well [C] Jimmy played harmonica in the [F] pub where I was [C] born
He played it from the night-time to the [F] peaceful early [G] morn
He [F] soothed souls of [C] psychos and the [G] men who had the horn
and they [C] all looked very [F] happy in the [G] morn-[C]ing
But [C] Jimmy didn't like his place [F] in this world of [C] ours
Where the elephant man broke strong men's necks [F] when he'd had too many [G] powers
So [F] sad to see the [C] grieving of the [G] people he was leaving
And he [C] took the road for [F] god knows in the [G] morn-[C]ing
We [C] walked him to the [F] station in the [C] rain
We [C] kissed him as we [F] put him on the [G] train
And we [F] sang him a [C] song of [G] times long [F] gone
though we [C] knew that we'd be [G] seeing him a-[C]gain
[C] Sad to say I must be on my way
so [F] buy me beer and [C] whiskey 'cause I'm [G] going far away
[C] I'd like to think I'll be returning when I can
to the [F] greatest little [C] boozer and to [G] Sally McLen-[C]nane
[F] [C] [G] [C]
The [C] years passed by the times had changed I [F] grew to be a [C] man
I learned to love the virtues of sweet [F] Sally McLen-[G]nane
I [F] took the jeers and [C] drank the beers and I [G] crawled back home at dawn
And I [C] ended up a [F] barman in the [G] mor-[C]ning
{np}
I [C] played the pump and took the hump and [F] watered whiskey [C] down
I talked of whores and horses to the [F] men who drank the [G] brown
I [F] heard them say that [C] Jimmy's making [G] money far away
Some [C] people left for [F] heaven without [G] war-[C]ning
We [C] walked him to the [F] station in the [C] rain
We [C] kissed him as we [F] put him on the [G] train
And we [F] sang him a [C] song of [G] times long [F] gone
though we [C] knew that we'd be [G] seeing him a[C]gain
[C] Sad to say I must be on my way
so [F] buy me beer and [C] whiskey 'cause I'm [G] going far away
[C] I'd like to think I'll be returning when I can
to the [F] greatest little [C] boozer and to [G] Sally McLen-[C]nane
[F] [C] [G] [C]
When [C] Jimmy came back home again he was [F] surprised that they were [C] gone
He asked me all the details of the [F] train that they went [G] on
Some [F] people they are [C] scared to croak but Jimmy drank until [G] he choked
And he [C] took the road for [F] heaven in the [G] mor-[C]ning
We [C] walked him to the [F] station in the [C] rain
We [C] kissed him as we [F] put him on the [G] train
And we [F] sang him a [C] song of [G] times long [F] gone
though we [C] knew that we'd be [G] seeing him a[C]gain
[C] Sad to say I must be on my way
so [F] buy me beer and [C] whiskey 'cause I'm [G] going far away
[C] I'd like to think I'll be returning when I can
to the [F] greatest little [C] boozer and to [G] Sally McLen-[C]nane
[F] [C] [G] [C]
[F] [C] [G] [C]/
