Intro 1
(G minor) (G major) (G minor) (G major) (D major)
(G major) We sail
Verse 1
(G minor) to night (G major) for Singapore (G minor)
(G major) We're all as mad as hatters here
I've fallen (G minor) for (G major) a tawny (G minor) moor
(G major) Took off to the land of nod
(C major) Drank with all the Chinamen
Walked the sewers of Paris (G major) (C major)
(G major) I danced along a colored (D major) wind (G major)
Dangled from a rope of sand (D major)
You must say goodbye to (G major) me

Verse 2
We sail (G major) tonight (G minor) for Singapore
(G major) Don't fall asleep while
(D major) you're ashore (G major)
Cross your heart and hope to die
When you hear the children cry
(C major) Let marrow bone and cleaver choose
While making feet for children's shoes
(G major) Through the alley, back from hell
When you hear that steeple bell (D major)
You must say goodbye to me
(G major)
Verse 3
(C major) Wipe him down with gasoline

So heave away, (D major) boys

Take your blankets from the floor
Wash your mouth out by the door
The whole town's (B flat major) made (G major) of iron ore
(C major) Every witness turns (G major) to steam (C major)
They all become Italian (G major) dreams
Fill your pockets up with earth (G minor)
Get (G major) yourself a dollar's worth (C major)
Away (D major) boys, away boys,
heave away
(G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 5
The (C major) captain (C minor) (C major) is a one- (G major) armed dwarf
He's (C major) throwing dice along (G major) the wharf

one- eyed man is (B flat major) king
So take this ring
(D major)

Walked the sewers of Par (G major) is
I drank along a colored wind
I dangled from a rope of sand (C major) (D major)
