Verse 1
One, two, (A minor) three,
go! (E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor)
(E major) (A minor)
There was a tiny mouse
who (E major) lived in a (A minor) tiny house
(E major) Full of (A minor) drafts and doubts
and incredible things (E major)
Like a jack -in -the (A minor) -box
who popped every Sunday
at (D minor) five o 'clock
And a (A minor) clown who wore a (E major) frown
that was deafening (A minor) (E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor)
He ate off a silver spoon (E major) in a (A minor) golden room,
(E major) but platinum plates (A minor) and
diamond goblets
weren't enough. (E major)
I am (A minor) bored, said he,
I think I will (D minor) go to sea,
where I'll be (A minor) drinking grog
and (E major) sniffing occasional snuff. (A minor) (E major)
(A minor) So he (D minor) stowed away that (A minor) very day,
but the (E major) motion of the ocean made him (A minor) sick.
He went (D minor) looking for a loo,
but the (A minor) be st that he could do
was the (E major) bathroom of the
captain of the (A minor) ship.
(D minor) Oh, the (A minor) bathroom of the (E major) captain of
the (A minor) ship! (E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor) (E major) (A minor)
There was a small still life
of (E major) the (A minor) captain's wife
And (E major) what he (A minor) saw there
nearly brought the mouse to (E major) tears
A calico coat (A minor) and head,
and the inscrip (D minor) tion read
To the (A minor) captain of my (E major) heart
from kitty dear (A minor) (E major)
(A minor) Mouse began to cry, (E major) what a fool (A minor) am I
To (E major) come so (A minor) far and then be
served upon a (E major) plate
What an (A minor) awful meal I'll be,
most (D minor) of all to me, so it's (A minor) overboard,
I'll (E major) go and make my es (A minor) cape. (E major)
(A minor) He caught a (D minor) flounder for a sail,
made a (A minor) rubber of his tail,
and (E major) swam as hard as he could
swim for (A minor) land.
Where he (D minor) dried his whiskers off,
and (A minor) coughed, and coughed, and coughed,
and (E major) spat up seven oysters in the (A minor) clam.
Oh, (D minor) he's (A minor) got seven (E major) oysters and
a (A minor) crab (E major) (A minor) (D minor)
(A minor) (E major) (A minor) (E major)
He married a (A minor) musketeer
Had (E major) children who (A minor) loved to hear
About (E major) the ad (A minor) ventures of
the tiny stowaway (E major)
But it made their (A minor) noses itch,
and their (D minor) whiskers twitch,
To think how (A minor) close he'd come to (E major) be
ing the soup of the (A minor) day. (E major) (A minor)
The (D minor) moral of the tale,
you (A minor) sleep before you sail,
And (E major) always keep your paws
and whiskers (A minor) neat.
And if you're (D minor) dining on a ship,
just be (A minor) sure the rooms were lit,
Always (E major) know what's in the bowl
before you (A minor) eat.
Always (D minor) know (A minor) what's in the (E major) bowl
before you (A minor) eat.
(E major) Rump (A minor) (E major) Rump (A minor)
(E major) Rump
