D
Well, Jimmy played harmonica
G
D
in the pub where I was born
He played it from the night time
G
A
to the peaceful early morn
D
A
and the men who had the horn
G
A
happy in the morning
G
D
in this world of ours
But he had a footman
who was fun like sex
G
A
when he had too many powers
D
A
of the people that he's leaving
D
G
He took the road for God
D

So he knew that he would see him again

Far away, to say, I must be on my way

So buy me beer and whiskey,
I'll be returning when I can

I'm just a silly makler man

I learned to love, to work, to serve,
G
A
sweet Sally MacLennan
D
A
and drove back home at dawn
D
G
A
And ended up a barman in the morning
G
D
and watered whiskey down
I'm talking horse and horses
G
A
to the man who drank the brown
D
A
that Jimmy's making money far away
D
G
And so people left for heaven
A
without warning
D

We walked him to the station in the rain

An d we sang him a song

Far away!
Sad to say, I must be on my way

So buy me a beer and whiskey,
Far away!
