The Dubliners - Sally mclennane

Well Ji^Dmmy played har^Gmonica in the pub where I was b^Dorn He pla^Dyed it from the nigh^Gt-time to the peaceful early m^Aorn He soo^Gthed souls of psychos and the m^Den who had the ho^Arn and they a^Dll looked very hap^Gpy in the mo^Arnin^Dg

Now J^Dimmy didn't like his place in ^Gthis world of our^Ds Where^D the elephant man broke strong men's^G necks when he^A'd had too many powers So sa^Gd to see the grieving of the pe^Dople he was leavi^Ang And he too^Dk the road from ^Gnowhere in t^Ahe mo^Drning

We wa^Dlked him to the sta^Gtion in the ra^Din We ki^Dssed him as we pu^Gt him on the tr^Aain And we s^Gang him a so^Dng of times long go^Gne though we kn^Dew that we'd be s^Aeeing him aga^Din ^A S^Dad to say I must be on my way so bu^Gy me beer and wh^Diskey 'cause I'm go^Aing far away I'd li^Dke to think I'll be returning when I can to the grea^Gtest little bo^Dozer and to Sa^Ally McLe^Dnnane

The y^Dears passed by the times had c^Ghanged Igrew to b^De a man I lea^Drned to love the virtues of sweet Sa^Glly McLennane ^A I too^Gk the jeers and drank the beers^D and I crawled ba^Ack home at dawn And ended ^Dup a barman in t^Ghe morning ^{A D}

I pla^Dyed the pump and took the hump^G and watered whis^Dkey down I tal^Dked of whores and horses to the men ^Gwho drank the ^Abrown I hea^Grd them say that Jimmy's making^D money far away ^A Some peopl^De left for heave^Gn without wa^Arning^D

We wa^Dlked him to the sta^Gtion in the ra^Din We ki^Dssed him as we pu^Gt him on the tr^Aain And we s^Gang him a so^Dng of times long go^Gne though we kn^Dew that we'd be s^Aeeing him aga^Din ^A S^Dad to say I must be on my way so bu^Gy me beer and wh^Diskey 'cause I'm go^Aing far away I'd li^Dke to think I'll be returning when I can to the grea^Gtest little bo^Dozer and to Sa^Ally McLe^Dnnane

When ^DJimmy came back home he was su^Grprised that they^D where gone He as^Dked me all the details of the train ^Gthat they went^A on Some ^Gpeople they arescared to croak ^Dbut Jimmy drank u^Antil he choked And took t^Dhe road for heav^Gen in the mo^Arning^D
