Well Jimmy [A] played harmonica [D] in the pub where I was born

mornin'
I took [A] the hump, I played the [D] bump, I watered whiskey down
I talked of horse and horses [G] to the man who drank the brown
I heard them say that Jimmy's [D] making money [A] far away
And some people [G] left for heaven [A] without [D] warning We [G] walked him to the station [D] in the rain
