Chords for Peter, Paul and Mary - Puff, the Magic Dragon (25th Anniversary Concert)

[Gm] _ _ [A] _ _ [C#] _ _ [Dm] _ _
[A] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ [F#m] _ [B] Seems you know that [E] little ditty.
_ [A] Once upon a [C#m] time, a long time [D] ago, in a far off land by the sea, there lived [A] a much maligned dragon.
[Dm] _ [F#m] Don't you know that it was really a pity [B] because there [E] never was a different meaning other
[A] than the obvious one.
_ [Bm] _ _ [Dm] _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] But the [B] magic dragon is only about [E] the loss of innocence [A] of children.
And now [C#m] you can tell your friends [D] it's a dragon. _
[A] _ _ [Dm] _ [F#m] And another thing you'll [B] notice that we're singing [E] this song earlier in the program than
we ever [A] sang it before.
That's because many of the [C#m] children who used to come [D] when we were very young would fall
asleep [A] before it was [D] possible for them to hear it.
[F#m] So all that goes to show is that even after 25 [E] years, a group like [A] us can still learn something new.
[E] Sing it with me now.
[A] Once upon a time, a long time [C#] _ [A] [D] ago, in a far off land by the [A] sea, [D] there lived a much maligned
[A] _ [F#m] _ [B] _ _
[E] _ _ [A] _ _ [C#m] _ [A] _ [D] Don't you know that [A] it was really a pity because there never [D] was a different meaning other
than the obvious one.
But the magic [A] _ [F#m] [B] dragon is only about the loss of innocence of children.
And another [E]
[A] thing you'll notice that we're singing [E] [A] this song earlier in the program than
asleep before it was possible for them to hear it.
The [C#m] magic dragon [D] lived [A] by the sea [D] and frolicked [F#m] in the autumn [B] mist in a land called [E] Annalee.
[A] Oh, the [C#m] magic [D] dragon lived [A] by the sea [D] and frolicked in [F#m] the autumn [B] mist in [E] a land called [A] [E] Annalee.
[A] And together [C#m] they would travel [D] on a boat [A] billowed sail.
[D] He [A] kept the [F#m] lookout [B] perched on Puff's [E] gigantic tail.
[A] Noble kings [C#m] and princes [A] would [D] bow whenever [A] they came.
[D] Pirate ships [A] would lower their [F#m] flags [B] when Puff [E] roared out [A] his own.
Hi, I'm Puff.
Hi, I'm Puff.
The [C#m] magic dragon [D] lived by [A] the sea [D] and frolicked in [F#m] the [B] autumn mist in a land called [E] Annalee.
[A] Oh, the magic [C#m] [F#m] dragon [D] lived by [A] the sea [D] and [A] frolicked in [F#m] the autumn mist [B] in a land [E] called [A] Annalee.
[E] [A] Oh, a dragon lives [C#m] forever, but [D] not so little girls [A] and little boys.
[D] Painted wings [A] and [F#m] giant's rings [B] make way for other [E] toys.
[A] One brave maid [C#m] it happened, [D] clunky paper came [A] the war.
[D] And Puff, [A] that mighty dragon, [F#m] [B] he ceased [E] his fearless [A] roar.
[E] [A] His head was bent [C#m] in [A] sorrow, [D] green scales fell [A] like rain.
[D] Puff [F#m] no longer went to play [B] along the cherry [E] lane.
[A] Puff _ [C#m] _ [A] _ [D] could not [A] be brave.
[D] [A] Mighty dragon, [F#m] _ [B] _ [E] _
[A] _ [E] _ [A] mighty dragon. _ _ _
