And they all looked very happy
A

in the morning
Verse 2
D
But Jimmy didn't like his place
G

in this world of ours
Where the elephant man
broke strong men's necks
G
A
when he'd had too many pours

So sad to see the grieving
D

and the people that I'm leaving
D

And he took the road for god knows
A

in the morning

To the greatest little boozer
A

and to Sally Maclennan
Verse 3
D
The years went by, the times had changed
G

I grew to be a man
I learned to love the virtues

of sweet Sally Maclennan

I took the jeers and drank the beers
D

and crawled back home at dawn
D
G
A
D
And ended up a barman in the morning

I played the pump and took the hump
G

and watered whiskey down

that Jimmy's making money far away

And some people left for heaven
A

without warning

When Jimmy came back home

Took the road for heaven in the morning
