[Verse]
A A/G# F#m
He smiled and rubbed the stubble on his chin
A A/G#
He sure showed signs of weariness
F#m C#m
And dreariness of life that's growing thin
D E A E
Yet he didn't have so very far to go
D E A E
With a pencil in his hand he will travel on as planned
D E A E
Where the mist up in the mountains threw a light [?]
[Chorus]
A A/G# A/G D E A E
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way
A A/G# A/G D
Oh they don't know where he is
E A E A E
Very very nice, very very nice
[Verse] variation
A A/G# A/G
Even in the morning when he slept
D E A E
Something good is missing
A A/G# A/G
There's nothing very much to talk about
D E A E
And nothing very much to see
[Chorus]
A A/G# A/G D E A E
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way
A A/G# A/G D
Oh they don't know where he is
E A E A (break)
Very very nice, very very nice
[Verse]
A A/G# F#m
Talks about the place he'd like to go
A A/G#
And you never see the worrying
F#m C#m
And hurrying and that makes a person slow
D E A E
Yet you wouldn't think he'd be so hard to find
D E A E
Yet he looks so very busy but there's nothing on his mind
D E A E
And his wavy hair continues not to grow
[Chorus]
A A/G# A/G D E A E
Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way
A A/G# A/G D
Oh they don't know where he is
E A E A (break)
Very very nice, very very nice

Craise Finton Kirk, see him go, on his way
N.C.
Oh they don't know where he is
N.C. A
Very very nice, very very nice
