Chords with lyrics

Penguin, James Penguin


Key: C majorC

          C majorC
Well the reindeer pull the sleigh

     G/DG/D        E minorEm
And the elves make the toys

        A minorAm         D MajorD
Those are the stories that are well known to all

 G+G
Little girls and boys

     C majorC
But I've got another story

    G/DG/D        E minorEm
That I bet you haven't heard

 A minorAm
Did you know that Santa

    D MajorD
Has a secret agent bird


 G+G        C majorC
He's Penguin, James Penguin

   D MajorD        G+G
That dapper little guy

    C majorC            G+G       E minorEm
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux

   A minorAm    D MajorD    G+G
He's Santa's secret spy


 D MajorD        G+G
Have you ever wondered

   D MajorD          G+G
How Santa Claus keeps tabs

 D MajorD         G+G
How he knows when you've been good

    A minorAm            D MajorD
How he knows when you've been bad

   G+G        C majorC
He's Penguin, James Penguin

   D MajorD        G+G
That dapper little guy

    C majorC           G+G       E minorEm
Like a well dressed duck in a three piece tux

   A minorAm    D MajorD    G+G
He's Santa's secret spy

    D MajorD         G+G
From an undisclosed location

   D MajorD         G+G
He's watching me and you

     D MajorD          G+G
He's got satellite uplinks in his cufflinks

 C majorC       B minorBm
Not so very long ago

    A minorAm    D MajorD      G+G
Santa didn't need much help

     C majorC          B minorBm
But with more and more kids every year

  A minorAm       D MajorD
He soon got overwhelmed

  C majorC          B minorBm
He told the elves one Christmas

     A minorAm    D MajorD  G+G
We can't do this anymore

    A minorAm
Then a knight in shining polyester

 D MajorD
Waddled through his door


      G+G        C majorC
And it was Penguin, James Penguin

    D MajorD          G+G
He was there to save the day

    C majorC
He had wireless

   G+G    E minorEm    A minorAm       D MajorD
And G+G P S  outfitted on the sleigh


   G+G      C majorC
And Santa said Penguin

      D MajorD        G+G
Won't you be my ears and eyes

 C majorC          G+G     B minorBm
How'd you like to help me run

  A minorAm   D MajorD  G+G
My SC  FBI
