A  C♯m  D  A  D  A F♯m B7 E7 A E7

A               C♯m
Puff, the magic dragon
D            A
Lived by the sea
    D                A      F♯m
And frolicked in the autumn mist
     B7                E7
In a land called Honah Lee

Little Jackie Paper
Loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings and sealing wax
    B7    E7    A      E7
And other fancy stuff, oh

  Puff, the magic dragon
  Lived by the sea                          x 2
  And frolicked in the autumn mist
  In a land called Honah Lee

Together they would travel
On a boat with billowed sail
Jackie kept a look-out perched
On Puff's gigantic tail

Noble kings and princes
Would bow whenever they came
Pirate ships would lower their flag
When Puff roared out his name, oh

  Refrain

A dragon lives forever
But not so little boys
Painted wings and giant rings
Make way for other toys

One grey night it happened
Jackie Paper came no more
And Puff that mighty dragon
He ceased his fearless roar

His head was bent in sorrow
Green scales fell like rain
Puff no longer went to play
Along the cherry lane

Without his life-long friend
Puff could not be brave
So Puff that mighty dragon sadly
Slipped into his cave, oh

  Refrain

fin: étire  B7   E7   A
