[G]Puff, the magic [hm]dragon [C]lived by the [G]sea
and [C]frolicked in the [G]autumn [em]mist in a [A7]land called Honah [D7]Lee.
{eoc}
[G]Little Jackie [hm]Paper [C]loved that rascal [G]Puff
and [C]brought him strings and [G]sealing [em]wax and [A7]other [D7]fancy [G]stuff, [D7]oh!
To[G]gether they would [hm]travel on the [C]boat with billowed [G]sails,
[C]Jackie kept his [G]look out [em]perched on [A7]Puff's gigantic [D7]tail.
[G]Noble kings and [hm]princess would [C]bow whenever they [G]came,
[C]pirate ships would [G]low'r their [em]flags when [A7]Puff roared [D7]out his [G]name, [D7]oh!
A [G]dragon lives for[hm]ever, but [C]not so little [G]boys.
[C]Painted wings and [G]giant [em]rings make [A7]way for other [D7]toys.
[G]One grey night it [hm]happened, Jackie [C]Paper came no [G]more,
and [C]Puff, that mighty [G]dra[em]gon, he [A7]ceased his [D7]fearless [G]roar, [D7]Oh!
His [G]head was bent in [hm]sorrow, [C]green scales fell like [G]rain.
[C]Puff no longer [G]went to [em]play a[A7]long the cherry [D7]lane.
With[G]out his lifelong [hm]friends, [C]Puff could not be [G]brave.
So [C]Puff that mighty [G]dra[em]gon sadly [A7]slipped in[D7]to his [G]cave, [D7]oh.
