Puff, The Magic Dragon (Peter, Paul, & Mary)

(Capo up - second fret, to D to be in tune with video below...)

C               G      F            C
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea,
    F                C                D               G
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
    C             G     F                 C
And little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff,
    F                       C       Am       D     G     C-G7
And brought him strings and sealing wax, and other fancy stuff.

chorus:
    C              G      F            C
Oh, Puff the magic dragon lived by the sea,
    F                C                D               G
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.
C               G      F            C
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea,
    F                C      Am        D           G   C-G7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee.

  C                 G           F                  C
Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail,
F             C                  D               G
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail.
C               G             F                 C
Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came.
F                  C           Am         D           G       C-G7
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name.

chorus

  C               G         F             C
A dragon lives forever, but not so little boys,
F                 C                  D             G
Painted wings and giant's rings make way for other toys.
C                 G                F             C
One gray night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more,
    F                C   Am     D          G        C-G7
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.

    C                G       F                      C
His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain.
F              C             D               G
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
    C                G       F                 C
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave.
   F                C       Am    D         G      C-G7
So Puff that mighty dragon, sadly slipped into his cave.
