We've had an amazing number of requests, funnily enough, for Puff the Magic Dragon.
Don't get all excited.
We didn't actually record that one, you see, just [Gm] in case you're not clear.
It wouldn't be quite right if we did that.
You [D#] know, you go to one of their concerts and you'd be expecting to hear Morning Town Ride,
poor old Mary would have to do [C#] that dance routine in [Gm] Myra.
They could be called Peter, Paul [F#] and Myra.
[G] Funny people do confuse us sometimes.
A lady came up to me once with an album cover to sign and it was a Peter, Paul and [A] Mary album cover.
[D] I couldn't believe it, [E] honestly.
[G#m] Did you sign it?
[C] Yeah, I did, [G#] actually.
[A] I signed it Mary.

[A]
It is impossible [D] to eat.
Lemon tree, very pretty.
And the lemon flower [A] is sweet.
But the fruit of the old lemon is impossible [D] to eat.
[B]
[E] [F#m] When I was but [G#m] a [F#m] little boy, [E] my [F#m] father [G#m] said to me, [E] come here [F#m] and learn [G#m] a lesson [A] from [E] the [B] lovely lemon [E] tree.
[A] My [Bm] son, it's most [C#m] [Bm]
important, [A] my [Bm] father [C#m] said to me, [A] to put your [Bm] trust [C#m] in what [D] you feel [A] and not [E] in what you [A] see.

[E] [G] Come gather [Em] round people [C] wherever [G] you go.
And admit that the [Am] waters around you [D] have grown.
[G] And accept [Em] it that soon you'll [C] be drenched [G] through the bog.
Any time [Am] to you [D] is worth saving.
And you'd better start swimming [Bm] or you'll sink like a stone.
[G] For the times they [C] are a [D] [G]
-changing.
Come [Em] rioters and creeps [C] who rob the [G] sign with your hands.
And keep your eyes wide [Am] the chance won't come [D] again.
[G] And don't speak [Em] too soon [C] for the wheel [G] still is turning.
And there's no telling [D] who that is naming.
For the loser now [Bm] will be later to [D] win.
[G] For the times they are [C] a [D]
[G]-changing.
The lion [Em] is drawn, [C] the curse [G] is cast.
The snow and dowl [Am] will later [D] be cast.
[G] As the present [Em] now [C] will later [G] be cast.
The order [Am] is [D] rapidly fading.
And the first one now will later be last.
[G] For the times they [C] are a [D] [G]-changing.

[G] [D]
[G]
Magic dragons [C] live by [G] the sea.
[C] And frolic in [G] the autumn mist [A] in a land called [D] Honolulu.
[G] Little [A] Jackie [Bm] Paper [C] loved that [G] rascal Huck.
[C] And bought him [G] strings and [Em] sealing wax.
[A] Another [G] fancy stuff.
