Intro 1
(C major) (G major) (C major)
Verse 1
(D minor) He was just an (G major) old country doctor
in a little (D minor) Kentucky town,
(G major) And fame and fortune had passed him (B major) by,
but we never saw (C major) him frown.
As day by day, in his kindly way,
he served us (G major) one and all,
many a patient forgot to pay,
(D major) although Doc's fees were small.
And he (G major) needed his dimes,
and yet every time he received a fee,
well he'd pass it on to some poor soul
that needed it more than (C major) he.
He had to sell his furniture,
(D major) because he couldn't pay his office rent.
So to a dusty (G major) room over the livery stable
He and his old satchel (C major) went
And (G major) on the hitching post on the curb
To (C major) advertise his wares
(F major) He nailed a little sign
that said (C major) Doc Brown has
moved upstairs (G major) (C major)
Then one day he didn't answer
When they knocked upon his (D minor) door
Old (G major) Doc was lyin' down,
(D minor) but his soul was no more. (G major)
They found him there in
(B major) that old black suit,
and on (C major) his face was a smile of content.
But all the money they could find on him
was (G major) just a quarter and a copper cent.
(D major) So they opened up his ledger,
and what they saw gave their hearts (G major) a pull.
For beside each dater's name,
Old Doc had written these words.
Paid in full (C major)
Old Doc should have had a funeral
(D major) Fine enough for a king
But it was (G major) a ghastly joke
The whole town was broke
And nobody could give a thing (C major)
Except old (G major) Caleb Jones, the undertaker
He (C major) did mighty well
(F major) He donated an old iron cas (C major) ket
He'd never been able to sell
And that (G major) funeral procession
Well, (C major) it wasn't much for grace,
pomp, and style
But (D minor) those wagonloads
of mourner (G major) s
stretched out for more (D minor) than a mile
(G major) We wanted to give old Doc a (B major) monument
Kind of figured we (C major) owed him one
Cause he'd made our town
a better place to live for all
the good he'd done (G major)
So we pulled up that old hitching post
where Doc (D major) had nailed his sign
And we painted it white,
and to all (G major) of us it certainly did look fine
And now the rains and snows
have washed away
our white trim and paint
An (C major) d there ain't nothin'
left but Doc's old sign
And that's (D minor) gettin' (D major) kinda faint
But you can still see (G major) that old hitchin' post
As if an answer to our (C major) prayers
(G major) Mutely tellin' the whole wide (C major) world
Old (F major) Doc Brown has (C major) moved upstairs.
