[Chorus]

A     D                  G        A
Got a whale of a tale to tell ya, lads
D                    G   A
A whale of a tale or two
D                  D7           G          A
'Bout the flappin' fish and the girls I've loved
D              A             D        A
On nights like this with the moon above
D            A         D        G
A whale of a tale and it's all true
D      A        D
I swear by my tattoo



[Verse 1]

G                         D
There was Mermaid Minnie, met her down in Madagascar
G                  D
She would kiss me, any time that I would ask her
G                D                      A
Then one evening her flame of love blew out
D                A  D
Blow me down and pick me up!
G              A     D
She swapped me for a trout


[Chorus]

A     D                  G        A
Got a whale of a tale to tell ya, lads
D                    G   A
A whale of a tale or two
D                  D7           G          A
'Bout the flappin' fish and the girls I've loved
D              A             D        A
On nights like this with the moon above
D            A         D        G
A whale of a tale and it's all true
D      A        D
I swear by my tattoo


[Verse 2]

G                         D
There was Typhoon Tessie, met her on the coast of Java
G                  D
When we kissed I bubbled up like molten lava
G                D                      A
Then she gave me the scare of my young life
D                A  D
Blow me down and pick me up!
G              A     D
She was the captain's wife


[Chorus]

A     D                  G        A
Got a whale of a tale to tell ya, lads
D                    G   A
A whale of a tale or two
D                  D7           G          A
'Bout the flappin' fish and the girls I've loved
D              A             D        A
On nights like this with the moon above
D            A         D        G
A whale of a tale and it's all true
D      A        D
I swear by my tattoo


[Verse 3]

G                         D
There was Harpoon Hannah, had a face that made you shudder
G                  D
Lips like fishhooks, and a nose just like a rudder
G                D                      A
If I kissed her and held her tenderly
D                A  D
There's no sea monster big enough
G              A     D
To ever frighten me!


[Chorus]

A     D                  G        A
Got a whale of a tale to tell ya, lads
D                    G   A
A whale of a tale or two
D                  D7           G          A
'Bout the flappin' fish and the girls I've loved
D              A             D        A
On nights like this with the moon above
D            A         D        G
A whale of a tale and it's all true
G       A        D
