6 ...-6 6 ..-5 5-54.....4 .......-5 5 -4....6....-6 6.....-55-54....4...-54-43

It's 9 o'clock on a Saturday

The regular cloud shuffles in

There's an old man sitting next to me 

Making love to his tonic and gin

4-56....-66....-55-44......4....-54-43

He says "son can you play me a melody

I'm not really sure how it goes

But it's sad and its sweet and I knew it complete

When I wore an younger mans clothes"

And you've got us feel in all right

4 -56.... -66.. -55-44....4...-54-43

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
