with me, and I
Were born in a small town
And we kinda think it was a different

Town because in our town, we had
a dragon (D minor) an d people
Used to make up stories
about the dragon
Verse 2
Sinse the (D major) stories were made up most of them
started:
"Once upon a time, there
was a very friendly dragon"
Except (E minor) people didn't have any way
of knowing that the
Dragon was friendly so they shot at
him (G major) with guns and
Threw rocks at him. And the
(D major) dragon being a (A major) sort of a
Poor sport,
he ate a lot (D minor) of those people up

Verse 5
Buddy (D major) can (A major) you spare a dime (D major)
For a little (G major) glass of wine (D major)
Buddy don't (A major) you pity me (D major)
Just one drink (A major) then I'll be (D major)
In a world (A major) all my own (D major)
The only place (G major) I call home (D major)
Where no hurt (A major) can get to me (D major)
And no one (A major) but me can see (D major)
Verse 6
Pretty (D major) flowers (A major) dance and sing (D major)
Laughter is (G major) a common thing (D major)
Where no hate (A major) has ever been (D major)
'Cause I won't (A major) let it in (D major)
By the warm (A major) purple flame (D major)
Every little grape (G major) calls my name (D major)
As it climbs (A major) on the fire (D major)
And makes the fire (A major) burn higher
Verse 7
(D major)
Higher than (A major) it's ever been (D major)
Time and space (G major) mean nothing then (D major)
I fall about (A major) a mile or two (D major)
So pardon me (A major) if I ask you (E major)
Buddy can (B major) you spare a dime
Verse 8
And that's (E major) the story of the little
town (A major) that Don and I
Was born in and our dragon, fairly strange story
