       D             G            
Well Jimmy played harmonica in the
                  D
 pub where I was born
      D                   G       
He played it from the night-time 
                      A
to the peaceful early morn
      G                            
He soothed souls of psychos and the
  D                A
 men who had the horn
          D                 G     
and they all looked very happy in 
      A   D
the morning

     D                             
Now Jimmy didn't like his place in 
G                D
this world of ours
     D                             
Where the elephant man broke strong
      G             A
 men's necks when he'd had too many 
powers
     G                           
So sad to see the grieving of the 
   D                A
people he was leaving
          D               G       
And he took the road from nowhere 
    A    D
in the morning

[Chorus]
     D                  G         
We walked him to the station in 
    D
the rain
     D                G           
We kissed him as we put him on the
   A
 train
        G           D             
And we sang him a song of times 
     G
long gone
            D                A    
though we knew that we'd be seeing
        D   A
 him again
 D
Sad to say I must be on my way

     G               D            
so buy me beer and whiskey 'cause 
      A
I'm going far away
      D
I'd like to think I'll be returning 
when I can
           G             D        
to the greatest little boozer and 
     A       D
to Sally McLennane

[Verse 2]
     D                           
The years passed by the times had 
  G                D
changed Igrew to be a man
     D                          
I learned to love the virtues of 
         G             A
sweet Sally McLennane
     G                             
I took the jeers and drank the 
 D                A
beers and I crawled back home at 
dawn
          D               G       
And ended up a barman in the 
    A    D
morning

     D                             
I played the pump and took the hump
G                D
 and watered whiskey down
     D                             
I talked of whores and horses to 
      G             A
the men who drank the brown
     G                             
I heard them say that Jimmy's 
 D                A
making money far away
          D               G       
Some people left for heaven 
    A    D
without warning

[Chorus]
     D                  G         
We walked him to the station in 
    D
the rain
     D                G           
We kissed him as we put him on the
   A
 train
        G           D             
And we sang him a song of times 
     G
long gone
            D                A    
though we knew that we'd be seeing
        D   A
 him again
 D
Sad to say I must be on my way
     G               D            
so buy me beer and whiskey 'cause 
      A
I'm going far away
      D
I'd like to think I'll be returning

           G             D

to Sally McLennane

[Verse 3]
     D                          
When Jimmy came back home he was 
   G                D
surprised that they where gone
     D                             
He asked me all the details of the 
      G             A
train that they went on
     G                             
Some people they arescared to croak
 D                A
 but Jimmy drank until he choked
          D               G       
And took the road for heaven in 
    A    D
the morning
