_ _ [Gm] _ _ [A] He dreamed that he stood in [Dm] a shadowy court where the snark [A] with a glass in its [Dm] eye
[Bb] Dressed in gown bands and [F] wig was defending a pig [C] on the charge of deserting [F] its sty

_ _ _ last [A] night.
I was standing [B] in a [E] court of law _ and
[B] The snark was the council for [E] defense.
[C] He was trying [G] to [Eb] establish the
[F] _ [Bb] Innocence of a pig that [A] I [Ab] clearly saw
[A] As stated [Gb] here [B] in before [E] in a _ [A] car
_ _ _ And [F] _
_ [D] _ [Eb] _ _ _ [B] _

The _ [Bm] jury [Gbm] [B] talks so we missed [E] a lot [C] and some [G] were
[Eb]
Some [F] were [Bb] not so the judge [Dm] cried.
[E] I implore
[A] Bring it down to [Gbm] a [B] deafening roar [E] in this car [A] blow

We fear it will [A] lose a fly
[E] It's clear that the pig [A] must die _
_ _ [F] _ _ [D] _ [Eb] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [E]
Snark replies [A] I beg you [B] my [E] learned friends
_ _ _ [Bm] First seems [Gbm] to me [B] with the naked [E] eye [C] that the pig [G] can [Eb] live or the pig [F] can [Bb] die
And its happiness [Dm] [E] all depends [A] on the mercy [Gbm] that [B] now extends [E] my _ [A] learned friends _ _
_ Let's teach it a lesson.
It'll never forget [D] or a [Dbm] devious deed it will live to regret
[A] It's clear that the pig must die

_ [B] _ _ _ [Db] _ [Bb] _
[Dbm] _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ [Fm] _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] Then the snark pronounced sentence, the [Gb] judge being quite too nervous to utter a [C] word.
[Am] When it rose to its feet, there was silence like night, and the [E] fall of [Gb] a pin might be heard. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[E] Let us teach it a lesson it'll never forget, [Ab] for a [A] devious [Ab] deed will live to [D] regret it.

_ [Bb] Such a sentence would have not [Gm] the slightest effect, [A] as the pig [E] had been dead [A] for some years.
