[Intro 1]
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Well, [D]Jimmy played harmonica
in the [G]pub where I was [D]born
He played it from the night time
to the [G]peaceful early [A]morn'
He [G]soothed the souls of psychos
and the [D]men who had the [A]horn
And they [D]all looked very [G]happy
in the [A]morn[D]ing

[Verse 2]
But [D]Jimmy didn't like his place
[G]in this world of [D]ours
Where the elephant man
broke strong men's necks
when he'd [G]had too many [A]pours
So [G]sad to see the grieving
and the [D]people that I'm [A]leaving
And he [D]took the road for [G]god knows
in the [A]morn[D]ing

[Pre-chorus 1]
We [D]walked him to the [G]station in the [D]rain
We kissed him as we [G]put him on the [A]train
And we [G]sang him a [D]song of times long [G]gone
Though we [D]knew
that we'd be [A]seeing him a[D]gain[A]

[Chorus 1]
I'm [D]sad to say I must be on me way
So [G]buy me beer and [D]whiskey
'cause I'm [A]going far away
I'd [D]like to think of me returning when I can
To the [G]greatest little [D]boozer
and to [A]Sally Maclen[D]nan

[Verse 3]
The [D]years went by, the times had changed
I [G]grew to be a [D]man
I learned to love the virtues
of sweet [G]Sally Maclen[A]nan
I [G]took the jeers and drank the beers
and [D]crawled back home at [A]dawn
And [D]ended up a [G]barman in the [A]morn[D]ing

[Verse 4]
I [D]played the pump and took the hump
and [G]watered whiskey [D]down
I talked of whores and horses
to the [G]men who drank the [A]brown
I [G]heard them say
that Jimmy's making [D]money far a[A]way
And some [D]people left for [G]heaven
without [A]warn[D]ing

[Pre-chorus 2]
We [D]walked him to the [G]station in the [D]rain
We kissed him as we [G]put him on the [A]train
And we [G]sang him a [D]song of times long [G]gone
Though we [D]knew
that we'd be [A]seeing him a[D]gain[A]

[Chorus 2]
I'm [D]sad to say I must be on me way
So [G]buy me beer and [D]whiskey
'cause I'm [A]going far away
I'd [D]like to think of me returning when I can
To the [G]greatest little [D]boozer
and to [A]Sally Maclen[D]nan
[G][D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
When [D]Jimmy came back home
he was sur[G]prised that they were [D]gone
He asked me all the details
of the [G]train that they went [A]on
Some [G]people they are scared to croak
but [D]Jimmy drank un[A]til he choked
[D]Took the road for [G]heaven in the [A]morn[D]ing

[Pre-chorus 3]
We [D]walked him to the [G]station in the [D]rain
We kissed him as we [G]put him on the [A]train
And we [G]sang him a [D]song of times long [G]gone
Though we [D]knew
that we'd be [A]seeing him a[D]gain[A]

[Chorus 3]
I'm [D]sad to say I must be on me way
So [G]buy me beer and [D]whiskey
'cause I'm [A]going far away
I'd [D]like to think of me returning when I can
To the [G]greatest little [D]boozer
and to [A]Sally Maclen[D]nan
