The Ballad Of Mack The Knife (Der Moritat Von Mackie Messer) Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht From the play "The Threepenny Opera" (1928) Standard Tuning
Oh, the C6shark has pretty Dmteeth, dear, And he sG9hows them pearly C6white; Just a jAmack-knife has MacDm7heath, dear, And he kDm7eeps it out of siC6ght!
When the C6shark bites with his Dmteeth, dear, Scarlet G9billows start to C6spread; Fancy Amgloves, though, wears Dm7Macheath, dear, So there's Dm7not a trace of C6red!
On the C6sidewalk Sunday Dmmorning Lies a G9body oozing C6life; Someone Amsneaking 'round the Dm7corner; Is that Dm7someone Mack the C6Knife?
From a C6tugboat by the Dmriver, A ceG9ment bag's dropping C6down; The ceAmment's just for the Dm7weight, dear; Bet ya Dm7Mackie's back in C6town!
Louie C6Miller disapDmpeared, dear, After G9drawing out his C6cash, And MacAmheath spends like a Dm7sailor; Did our Dm7boy do something C6rash?
Suky C6Tawdry, Jenny DmDiver, Polly G9Peachum, Lucy C6Brown; Oh, the Amline forms on the Dm7right, dears, Now that Dm7Mackie's back in C6town!
Oh, the C6shark has pretty Dmteeth, dear, And he G9shows them pearly C6white; Just a Amjack-knife has Dm7Macheath, dear, And he Dm7keeps it out of C6sight!
Just a Amjack-knife has Dm7Macheath, dear, Slow down
And he Dm7keeps it out of C6sight!
