F9                          F6  F7
     Give him a soft guitar

                        F6  F7
to play what he choose

                             F6  F7
He ain't got no fancy chords
Only got his blues
A7+5-9     Dm9
Poor happy Jimmy

  A13                  A7+5-9          Dm9
I didn't know him very well but he was with me

      Bb9                       Eb9
And I won't take a dime just to make it rhyme

        Am7                 Ab9-5
Cause I cried and cried the day he died

Gm7  C7+5-9   Gb9
Poor          happy

 Jimmy                                Give him sweet melodies

                         F6 F7
he sing with all he has

                          F6 F7
He got a funky paraphrase
It sound like good time jazz
 A7+5-9           Dm9
       Poor happy Jimmy

  A13                  A7+5-9          Dm9
I didn't know him very well but he was with me

      Bb9                        Eb9
And I won't put the blame on the aeroplane

      Am7              Ab9-5
But I boo-hoo'd on the day he flew

Gm7   C7+5-9  Gb9
Poor          happy
