    Oh…
Verse:
G                Bm      C             G    
 Puff, the magic  dragon  lived by the  sea
    C                 G       Em    
And  frolicked in the  autumn  mist
     A7                     D7  
In a  land called Honah-Lee ,
G              Bm     C                  G     
 Little Jackie  Paper  loved that rascal  Puff
    C                        G        Em   
And  brought him strings and  sealing  wax
    A7     D7     G       D7          
And  other  fancy  stuff.  Oh!


Refrain:
       G                Bm      C             G    

 Puff, the magic  dragon  lived by the  sea
    C                 G       Em    
And  frolicked in the  autumn  mist
     A7                     D7  
In a  land called Honah-Lee ,
       G                Bm      C             G    

 Puff, the magic  dragon  lived by the  sea
    C                 G       Em                                   
And  frolicked in the  autumn  mist    {c: (Last time go to Coda)}
     A7           D7     G     D7 
In a  land called  Honah- Lee. 
        

       G                    Bm           C                   G      

 Together they would  travel on a  boat with billowed  sail,
C              G         Em          A7               D7     
 Jackie kept a  look-out  perched on  Puff's gigantic  tail,
G                Bm             C                  G      
 Noble kings and  princes would  bow whene'er they  came,
C                   G            Em     
 Pirate ships would  low'r their  flags
     A7           D7       G     D7                  
When  Puff roared  out his  name  Oh! … {c: Refrain}


G                   Bm         C              G              
 A dragon lives for--ever, but  not so little  boys,-

C                  G      Em     
 Painted wings and  giant  rings
     A7             D7            
Make  way for other  toys,

G                  Bm                C              G     
 One grey night it  happened, Jackie  Paper came no  more
    C                 G        
And  Puff that mighty  dragon,
Em  A7         D7       G     D7 
 He ceased his fearless roar. 


G                     Bm      C                       G             
 His head was bent in  sorrow  green scales fell like  rain,

C               G        Em      A7               D7     
 Puff no longer  went to  play a--long the cherry  lane,
     G                 Bm      C                  G      
With--out his lifelong  friend  Puff could not be  brave
   C                 G        
So  Puff that mighty  dragon,
Em     A7          D7      G      D7                        
 sadly  slipped in--to his  cave. Oh! … {c: Refrain
