Verse:

(A7)      Dsus2   D        Em7                        Dsus2  D       A7sus4     A7
Well last night I dreamt I sailed the seven seas, I'd spoken Madarin there with ease

Dsus2   D           Em7                   Dsus2      D            A7sus4     A7
      I crossed the mountains through the meadows, I followed the breeze

(A7)   Dsus2   D       Em7          Dsus2       D     A7sus4     A7
When a soldier came to ask me who I was and why I was singing

(A7) Dsus2    D        Em7                    Dsus2     D     A7sus4     A7
So I told him tales of many things and not to fear what I was thinking



Pre-chorus:

(A7)       Dsus2 D       Em7                         Dsus2    D        A7sus4     A7
He said in Ameri-ca they boil your bones and they'll eat your eyes for dinner

(A7)   Dsus2   D     Em7                 Dsus2        D         A7sus4     A7
I'd go back to where you come from maybe there you'll fair much better

(A7) Dsus2    D    Em7            Dsus2   D     A7sus4     A7
So I told him of a mermaid that I met the other day

(A7)     Dsus2    D        Em7        Dsus2   D        A7sus4  A7        Dsus2
And that he could have her address if I could pass, if I could pass this way



Chorus:

(Dsus2) D          Em7                Dsus2 D           A7sus4         A7         Dsus2
   It's all such a shame we're all so afraid  don't you know that it's all in the game

(Dsus2)      D     Em7                  Dsus2 D        A7sus4     A7      Dsus2
       It's only a bogeyman knocking my door    but he don't live here no more

(Dsus2)   D       |Em7             |Dsus2   D       |A7sus4  A7      |



Verse:

(A7)    Dsus2  D     Em7           Dsus2   D       A7sus4     A7
Well in Washington I met a man who went to all his neighbours

(A7)   Dsus2  D       Em7               Dsus2 D     A7sus4     A7
And he made a pact to save them from mysteri--ous invaders

(A7)        Dsus2     D         Em7                    Dsus2     D     A7sus4     A7
And then he claps his hands and stamps his feet and he sails the seven seas

(A7)   Dsus2       D      Em7                 Dsus2      D        A7sus4     A7
And he chains them all to dollar bills and he tells them they are free



Pre-chorus:

(A7)       Dsus2 D       Em7                         Dsus2   D        A7sus4     A7
Because in Afri--ca they boil your bones and they'll eat you eyes for dinner

(A7)   Dsus2   D        Em7            Dsus2 D          A7sus4      A7         Dsus2
I'd go back to where we all belong and maybe we'll feel,      maybe we'll feel better



Chorus:

(Dsus2) D          Em7                Dsus2 D           A7sus4         A7         Dsus2
   It's all such a shame we're all so afraid  don't you know that it's all in the game

(Dsus2)      D     Em7                  Dsus2 D        A7sus4     A7      Dsus2
       It's only a bogeyman knocking my door    but he don't live here no more

(Dsus2)           |Dsus2             |

   It's all such a shame we're all so afraid  don't you know that it's all in the game

(Dsus2)      D     Em7                  Dsus2 D        A7sus4     A7      Dsus2
