^DHe walks along ^D/C#singing his fairy song,

^D/Bpicking up magic that ^Dgrows at his feet.

^DShe says her same ^D/C#her peculiar way,

^D/Bdreaming good fortune on ^Deveryone's ^Gstreet.

[Chorus]

^CSay, hey, ^Fhave you heard

blue ^Cwhiskey's the ^Frage ? I'll ^Amsend you a ^Cjug in the ^Fmor-^Cning.

^DIt is ab^Gsurd to ^Dlive in a ^Gcage, you ^Emknow there's got to ^F#mbe something ^Abetter.

[Verse]

^DAs they go by, ^D/C#don't look with eagle's eyes,

^D/Bsmile on your jailors ^Duntil they grow weak.

^DNothing can compare ^D/C#to something that's almost there

^D/Bto tear up the madness ^Dthat all of us ^Gseek.

[Chorus]

^CSay, hey, ^Fhave you heard

blue ^Cwhiskey's the ^Frage ? I'll ^Amsend you a ^Cjug in the ^Fmor-^Cning.

^DIt is ab^Gsurd to ^Dlive in a ^Gcage, you ^Emknow there's got to ^F#mbe something ^Abetter.
