|F9F9    |   Fadd9Fadd9|FF     |      |

F9F9             F6F6 F7F7
   Give him a soft guitar
            F6F6 F7F7
to play what he choose
               F6F6 F7F7
He ain't got no fancy chords

Only got his blues

A7A7+5-9   Dm9Dm9
Poor happy Jimmy
 A13A13         A7A7+5-9     Dm9Dm9
I didn't know him very well but he was with me
   Bb9Bb9            Eb9Eb9
And I won't take a dime just to make it rhyme
    Am7Am7         Ab9-5
Cause I cried and cried the day he died
Gm7Gm7 C7C7+5-9  Gb9Gb9
Poor     happy

|FF    |   F6F6|FF   |  F6F6|F7F7              F6F6 F7F7
 Jimmy                Give him sweet melodies
             F6F6 F7F7
he sing with all he has
             F6F6 F7F7
He got a funky paraphrase

It sound like good time jazz

 A7A7+5-9      Dm9Dm9
    Poor happy Jimmy
 A13A13         A7A7+5-9     Dm9Dm9
I didn't know him very well but he was with me
   Bb9Bb9            Eb9Eb9
And I won't put the blame on the aeroplane
    Am7Am7       Ab9-5
But I boo-hoo'd on the day he flew
Gm7Gm7  C7-9+5 Gb9Gb9
Poor     happy
