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