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