Puff the Magic Dragon
Peter, Paul and Mary
[D] Puff the magic [F#m] dragon [G] lived by the [D] sea,
And [G] frolicked in the [D] autumn mist in a
[E7] land called Honah[A7] Lee,
[D] Little Jackie [F#m] Paper [G] loved that rascal [D] Puff,
And [G] bought him strings and [D] sealing wax and
[E7] Other [A7] fancy [D] stuff. [A7] Oh!
Chorus:
[D] Puff the magic [F#m] dragon [G] lived by the [D] sea
And [G] frolicked in the [D] autumn mist in a
[E7] Land called Honah[A7]Lee,
[D] Puff the magic [F#m] dragon [G] lived by the [D] sea
And [G] frolicked in the [D] autumn mist in a [E7] Land called [A7] Honah[D]Lee.
[D] Together they would [F#m] travel on a [G] boat with billowed [D] sail,
[G] Jackie kept a [D] look out perched on [E7] Puff’s gigantic [A7] tail,
[D] Noble kings and [F#m] princes would [G] bow when e’re they [D] came,
[G] Pirate ships would [D] low’r their flag when
[E7] Puff roared [A7] out his [D] name. [A7] Oh!
Chorus:
[D] A Dragon Lives for [F#m] ever but [G] not so little [D] boys.
[G] Painted wings and [D] giant rings make [E7] way for other [A7] toys,
[D] One grey night it [F#m] happened, Jackie [G] Paper came no [D] more.
And [G] Puff that mighty [D] dragon, he
[E7] Ceased his [A7] fearless [D] roar. [A7] Oh!
Chorus:
[D] His head was bent in [F#m] sorrow green [G] scales fell like [D] rain,
[G] Puff no longer [D] went to play [E7] along the cherry [A7] lane
[D] Without his lifelong [F#m] friend [G] Puff could not be [D] brave.
So [G] Puff that mighty [D] dragon sadly [E7] slipped in [A7] to his [D] cave.
