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