Verse 1:

Fm                  Cm
Come along, catch a Heffalump,

Fm               Cm
Sit with me on a muddy clump,

Fm                   G         Fm Cm
We'll sing a song of days gone by.

Fm             Cm
Run along now, don’t be glum,

Fm                 Cm
Get you gone, now, have some fun,

Fm                     G      Fm  Cm
Don't be long, for the end is nigh.


Fm        Eb      Fm   Eb
Don't let moments pass along

Fm        Eb          G
And waste before your eyes;


Fm                    Cm
March with me and the borogoves,

Fm                   Cm
Come with me and the slithy toves,

Fm        G      Cm
And never ask us why.

Chorus:

Ab                Cm
Come, come, come, come, come along now,

Ab                Cm
Run away from the hum-drum,

Ab            Cm
We'll go to a place that is safe from

G                Cm
Greed, anger and boredom.

Ab              Cm
We'll dance and sing till sundown,

Ab             Cm
And feast with abandon,

Ab                   Cm
We'll sleep when the morning comes,

          G                        Cm
And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs.

Verse 2:

Fm                     Cm
We'll be here when the world slows down,

        Fm            Cm
And the sunbeams fade away,

Fm                Cm
Keeping time by a pendulum

       Fm               Cm
As the fabric starts to fray.


        Fm      Eb       Fm      Eb
There’s no such thing as time to kill,

    Fm       Eb   G
Nor time to throw away,

    Cm           Fm          Cm            Fm
So, once for the bright sky, twice for the pig sty,

Cm         Fm      G
Thrice for another day.

Chorus:

Ab                Cm
Come, come, come, come, come along now,

Ab                Cm
Run away from the hum-drum,

Ab            Cm
We'll go to a place that is safe from

G                Cm
Greed, anger and boredom.

Ab              Cm
We'll dance and sing till sundown,

Ab             Cm
And feast with abandon,

Ab                   Cm
We'll sleep when the morning comes,

          G                        Cm
And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs.

Verse 3:

Fm                    Cm
Come with me, catch a rare type specimen,

Fm               Cm
Cuddle up with a hesitant skeleton,

Fm              G         Fm      Cm
We'll break our fast with friends.


Fm                       Cm
Once we're fed, we shall disappear rapidly,

Fm                Cm
Many moons to the west of here and happily,

Fm          G     Fm   Cm
Our journey never ends.


Fm        Eb        Fm     Eb
Shut your ears when sirens sing,

    Fm       Eb       G
Tie armbands to your feet;


Fm                Cm
Listen up and you won't go wrong again,

Fm               Cm
Float along on a verse-less song and then,

Fm               G        Fm   Cm
Get to where the two ends meet.

Chorus:

Ab                Cm
Come, come, come, come, come along now,

Ab                Cm
Run away from the hum-drum,

Ab            Cm
We'll go to a place that is safe from

G                Cm
Greed, anger and boredom.

Ab              Cm
We'll dance and sing till sundown,

Ab             Cm
And feast with abandon,

Ab                   Cm
We'll sleep when the morning comes,

          G                        Cm
And we'll rise by the sound of the birdsongs.
