Intro:
A augmentedA - E/A - D/AD/A - A augmentedA
F#m/B - Bm7Bm7

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE   E minor 7Em7    A minorAm
Come to the din-ner gong
    Em/A  A7A7     Dm7Dm7
The ta-ble is lad-en high
  D MajorD      C/DC/D
Fat bel-lies and hun-gry little ones
          FF   A augmentedA  E/A   E MajorE
Tuck your napkins in and take your share

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE    E minor 7Em7
Some get the gra-vy
A minorAm    Em/A   A7A7
And some get the gris-tle
Dm7Dm7   D MajorD    C/DC/D
  Some get the mar-row bone
         FF
And some get noth- ing
        A augmentedA  E/A E MajorE    Esus4Esus4
Though there's plen-ty to spare

Em/A     A minorAm  Em/A A minorAm Em/A
I  took my share down by the sea
  A minorAm Em/A  A minorAm Em/A             Esus4Esus4
Pa-per plates and Ja- -vex bottles on the tide
     E MajorE         Em7sus4     D/ED/E
Seagulls come down and they    squawk at me
E MajorE      Esus4Esus4 E7sus4E7sus4   D/ED/E  FF [Cmaj7/F FF - 3x] F#m/B Bm7Bm7
 Down where the wa- - - ter ski- ers  glide

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE    E minor 7Em7 A minorAm
Some turn to Je-sus
     Em/A  A7A7
And some turn to her-o-in
Dm7Dm7   D MajorD    C/DC/D
  Some turn to ramb-ling 'round
           FF
Looking for a clean sky
   A augmentedA   E/A   E MajorE
And a drink-ing stream

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE     E minor 7Em7    A minorAm
Some watch the paint peel off
   Em/A    A7A7
Some watch their kids grow up
Dm7Dm7   D MajorD      C/DC/D
  Some watch their stocks and bonds
          FF    A augmentedA  E/A  E MajorE    Esus4Esus4
Waiting for that big deal A-mer-i- -can dream

Em/A     A minorAm  Em/A A minorAm Em/A
I  took my dream down by the sea
  A minorAm Em/A  A minorAm Em/A
Yan-kee yachts and lob- ster pots
        Esus4Esus4     E MajorE
And sunshine and   logs and sails
  Em7sus4     D/ED/E
And    Shell Oil pails
E MajorE         Esus4Esus4  D/ED/E
Dogs and tugs and sum- mer-time

      FF
Back in the ban-quet line
Cmaj7/F         F#m/B
An- - -gry young people cry- ing

Esus4Esus4 E MajorE    E minor 7Em7   A minorAm
"Who let the greed-y in
    Em/A   A7A7
And who left the need-y out?
Dm7Dm7   D MajorD     C/DC/D
  Who made this salt-y
               FF
Tell 'em we're very hungry now
   A augmentedA   E/A  E MajorE
For a sweet-er fare"


In the cookie I read,
Esus4Esus4 E MajorE    E minor 7Em7
"Some get the gra-vy
A minorAm    Em/A   A7A7
And some get the gris-tle
Dm7Dm7   D MajorD    C/DC/D
  Some get the mar-row bone
  Em/A     A minorAm  FF
And  some get noth- ing
        A augmentedA  E/A  BB    D/B E/B Esus4/B E/B Bm7Bm7 BB
Though there's plen-ty to spare"
