Intro:
C  D  G


Verse 1:
                         C            D
If you are looking for a special dish
                       G
Might I recommend this little fish
                          C             D
You overlooked it, well I have a hunch
                         G
Sardines on toast make a brilliant lunch

Chorus:
                          D
They are so easy and they are so cheap
                         G
They got the flavor that goes so deep
                                 C
Oh, the landlubber and the fisherman
                       D                G
Love the sardines that come in a little can  Hey-a-hum!


Verse 2:
                C              D
When I go and I make my toast
                            G
You know the topping that I love the most
                          C      D
Don't want no honey or no PBJ
                       G
No cheddar cheese or a French pâté


Chorus:
                         D
But a Brunswick can is a master plan
                           G
For lunch they're grand as Grand Manan
                                 C
Oh, the landlubber and the fisherman
                       D                G
Love the sardines that come in a little can  Hey-a-hum!

Verse 3:
                        C             D
I love tomato, love the mustard sauce
                     G
The soya oil and the cheap cheap cost
                                 C            D
They'll call them smokies or the kippercans
                   G
I eat with fork or just by hands


Chorus:
                           D
When I eat them, I have to loosen up my belt
                            G
I feel like a beaver with a shiny pelt
                                 C
Oh, the landlubber and the fisherman
                       D                G
Love the sardines that come in a little can  Hey-a-hum!


Instrumental:
G     D
G     C   D   G


Verse 4:
                         C             D
If you are looking for a special dish
                       G
Don't need no genie to get your wish
                     C            D
Open a can up by the tab or key
                      G
Will satisfy, you can thank me


Chorus:
                          D
I pack 'em in my suitcase when I leave
                       G
I bring back more from overseas
                                 C
Oh, the landlubber and the fisherman
                       D                G
Love the sardines that come in a little can


Outro:
                                 C
Oh, the landlubber and the fisherman
                       D                G
Love the sardines that come in a little can  Hey-a-hum!
