LESSON 3 PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON -Here's the modified chords that I throw in for kicks: G (320033) C* (x32013)

G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 D7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,

G Bm C G
Little jackie paper loved that rascal Puff,

C G Em A7 D7 G d
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. Oh


G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 D7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,

G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 D7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.

G Bm C G
Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail

C G Em A7 D7
And Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff’s gigantic tail,

G Bm C G
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came,

C G Em A7 D7
Pirate ships would lower their flags when Puff roared out his name. oh!


G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 D7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,

G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 D7
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.

G Bm C G
A dragon lives forever but not so little boys

C G Em A7 D7
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys.

G Bm C G
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more

C G Em A7 D7
And Puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar.


G Bm C G His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain,

C G Em A7 D7 Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.

G Bm C G Without his life-long friend, Puff could not be brave,

C G Em A7 D7 So Puff that mighty dragon, he slipped into his cave. oh!

G Bm C G Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
C G Em A7 D7 And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee,
G Bm C G Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea

C G Em A7 G C* G And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Le

  1. If I had a hammer Intro: A C#m D E (2x)

    Note: The verse begins the second time E is played in the intro

    (Verse Part 1)
    E A C#m D
    If I had a hammer
    E A C#m D
    I'd hammer in the morning
    E A C#m D
    I'd hammer in the evening
    E
    all over this land,

    (Verse Part 2)
    E A
    I'd hammer out danger
    Dmaj7**
    I'd hammer out a warning
    D A D A D
    I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters
    E A C#m D
    All over this land.

    ** I play this as Dmaj7 but its not quite right. I'm not sure what this actual chord is, but you can play either
    Dmaj7 or D and it sounds fine.

    (Verse Part 1)
    If I had a bell
    I'd ring it in the morning
    I'd ring it in the evening
    All over this land,

    (Verse Part 2)
    I'd ring out danger
    I'd ring out a warning
    I'd ring out love between my brothers and my sisters
    All over this land.

    (Verse Part 1)
    If I had a song
    I'd sing it in the morning
    I'd sing it in the evening
    all over this world,

    (Verse Part 2)
    I'd sing out danger
    I'd sing out a warning
    I'd sing out love between my brothers and my sisters
    All over this land.

    (Verse Part 1)
    If I've got a hammer
    And I've got a bell
    And I've got a song to sing
    all over this land,

    (Verse Part 2)
    It's a hammer of justice
    It's a bell of freedom
    It's a song about love between my brothers and my sisters
    All over this land.

    (Last verse Repeated)
    It's a hammer of justice
    It's a bell of freedom
    It's a song about love between my brothers and my sisters
    E A D A
    All over this land.
