Capo II *
G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
C G Em A7 D
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 D7
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 D
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 D G
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 D
Jackie kept a lookout perched on Puff's gigantic tail,
G Bm C G
Noble kings and princes would bow whene'er they came,
C G Em A7 D 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 D
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 D G
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 D
Painted wings and giants' rings make way for other toys.
G Bm C G
One grey night it happened, Jackie Paper came no more
C G Em A7 D
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 D
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane.
G Bm C G
Without his lifelong friend, Puff could not be brave,
C G Em A7 D D7
So Puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. Oh!
G Bm C G
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea
C G Em A7 D
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 D G
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee

This is by far the best version. The subtly different placement of the Em makes a huge difference, and the use of the D and D7 in varying places is perfect.
