Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

 Well JDimmy played harmonica in the pGub where I was boDrn

 He plaDyed it from the night-time to the peGaceful early mAorn

 He sooGthed souls of psychos and the mDen who had the hoArn

 and they alDl looked very haGppy in the mAorninDg

Verse 2

Now Jimmy didn't like his place in this world of ours

Where the elephant man broke strong men's necks when he'd had too many powers

So sad to see the grieving of the people he was leaving

And he took the road from nowhere in the morning

Chorus

 We waDlked him to the staGtion in the raDin

 We kiDssed him as we puGt him on the trAain

 And we sGang him a soDng of times long goGne

 though we knDew that we'd be sAeeing him agaDin A

 SDad to say I must be on my way

 so buGy me beer and whDiskey 'cause I'm goAing far away

 I'd liDke to think I'll be returning when I can

 to the greaGtest little boDozer and to SaAlly McLeDnnane

Verse 3

The years passed by the times had changed Igrew to be a man

I learned to love the virtues of sweet Sally McLennane

I took the jeers and drank the beers and I crawled back home at dawn

And ended up a barman in the morning

Verse 4

I played the pump and took the hump and watered whiskey down

I talked of whores and horses to the men who drank the brown

I heard them say that Jimmy's making money far away

Some people left for heaven without warning

Chorus

Intro

Verse 5

When Jimmy came back home he was surprised that they where gone

He asked me all the details of the train that they went on

Some people they arescared to croak but Jimmy drank until he choked

And took the road for heaven in the morning
