[G] [D]
Well, Jimmy played harmonica [G] in the pub where [D] I was born
He played it from the night time [G] to the pace of the [A] early morn
[G] He stood the souls of [D] psychos and the men who had the horns
And they all looked very [G] happy [A] in the [D] morning
But Jimmy didn't like [G] his place in [D] this world, lad
Well, the other man brought storm [G] and dex and he had [A] too many pads
[G] So he sat to sleep and grieving [D] on the people [A] down the lake
[D] And he put the [G] rock with God knows [A] in the [D] morning
We walked into the station in the rain
We kissed [G] him as we put him [A] on the train
[G] And we [D] sang him the song that's high [G] as long gone
[D] Though he knew [A] that we'd be seeing him again
[D] But I'm sad to say I must be on me way
[G] So buy me [D] a beer or whiskey [A] cause I'm gone far away
[D] But I'd like to think of you returning when I can
[G] To the greatest [D] local boozer and the Sally Mac Donan
The years of violence has made me [G] so [D] drow to be a man
I learned to love the virtues [G] of this Sally [A] Mac Donan
[G] I took the cheers and drank the [D] beers and [A] called my homies gone
[D] I ended up a barman in the morning
I played the pump and took the [G] hump and brought the [D] whiskey down
I took the booze and horses [E] for the men who [A] drank the brown
[G] I heard the sight of Jimmy [D] smacking [A] money far away
[D] Some people [G] left for heaven [A] without [D] warning
We walked into the station in the rain
We kissed him [G] as we put him [A] on the train
[G] And we sang [D] him the song that's high as long gone
Though he knew [A] that we'd be seeing him again
But [D] I'm sad to say I must be on me way
[G] So buy me [D] a beer or whiskey [A] cause I'm gone far away
[D] But I'd like to think of you returning when I can
To [G] the greatest [D] local boozer [A] and [D] the Sally Mac Donan
[G] [D] [A]
[D] When Jimmy came back home [G] he was surprised [D] that they were gone
He asked me all the [Em] details and explained [A] that they were none
[G] Some people may have scared [D] the cock but Jimmy [A] drank until he choked
[D] Left [G] the road for heaven in [A] the [D] morning
We walked [G] into the [D] station in the rain
And we kissed him [G] as we put him [A] on the train
[G] And we sang [D] him the song that's high [G] as long gone
[D] Though he knew that [A] we'd be seeing him again
[D] But I'm sad to say I must be on me way
[G] So buy me [D] a beer or whiskey [A] cause I'm gone far away
[D] But I'd like to think of you returning when I can
