[A]
The lead of the body in [D] that peaceful [A] pagan home
[F#m] To pay their [D] last respects [F#m] all [C#m] the neighbors [D] came along
In [A] the wee hours of the morning [D] pagan words from a [A] whiskey still
[F#m] Fallen [D] from the bushes [F#m] sworn [C#m] enemies [D] or friends again
[A] Someone spilled porth around [D] the corpse in the middle [A] of a song
[F#m] And the stories kept [D] on coming back [F#m] from [A] [D] 1941
Sail on, [F#m] sail on Jimmy [E]
[D] Sail on, Jimmy [A] boy
[E]
[D] Sail on, [F#m] sail on Jimmy
[E] [D] From this [A] Irish pagan ritual
Mad Mary from the crossroads [D] grabbed my arse [A] for all to see
[F#m] I tell your [D] fortune, Scobie, if you [E] come on [D] home with me
[A] In my name and God now, Mary, [D] some respect [A] for the dead
[F#m] You can't be [D] grabbing arses [F#m] at a [Em] pagan [D] ritual
Sail on, [A] sail on Jimmy [E] [D] Sail on, [A] Jimmy boy
[E] [D] Sail on, [F#m] sail on [E] Jimmy
[D] From [E] this Irish [A] pagan ritual
Father Tim is telling Tommy [D] how the [A] Israelites came in
[F#m] And Tommy is eating [D] sandwiches [E] that are piled [D] up next to him
[A] Someone started singing [D] our revenge [A] for Skiverine
[F#m] There's a French [D] lamp there, Trudley
[F#m] For the next door [D] neighbor's daughter, [F#m] Jean-Louis
[E] And lovely [D]
Angélique
Sail on, [A] sail on Jimmy
[E] [D] Sail on, [A] Jimmy boy
[E] [D] Sail on, [F#m] sail on Jimmy
[E] From [D] [E] this Irish pagan [A] ritual
In the wee hours of the morning [D] we were howling [A] at the moon
[F#m] When the mystic [D] wind took Jimmy [F#m] way [E] up to the [D] mystic room
[A] Up, up, up, up, up, he's [D] gone in peace to [A] save us all
[F#m] Don't let a [D] mystic let him [F#m] from that peaceful [E] pagan [D] ritual
Sail on, [F#m] sail on Jimmy
[E]
[D] Sail [A] on, Jimmy boy
[E]
[D] Sail on, [A] sail on [E] Jimmy
[D] From this [E] Irish pagan [A] ritual
No, you haven't heard
[D] Sail on, [F#m] sail on Jimmy
