B   E7   G   C7   A


[Verse]

B       E7        G         C7
Trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro
A
You have no word
B                  A
Trip, trip to a dream dragon
B                     A
Hide your wings in a ghost tower
B                      A
Sails cackling at every plate we break
B                         Bb
What was cracked by scattered needles
A
The little minute gong coughs and clears his throat

Madam you see before you stand
A
Hey ho, never be still

The old original favorite grand
A
Grasshoppers green Herbarian band
                             F#7
And the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
B           E7       G            C7
So trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro
A
You have no word


[Chorus]

F#             B
Please leave us here
F#         B           B7       E
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!


[Verse]

E         F          F#      G
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
G
Isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
A                          D
Meant even less to me than I thought
A                          D
With a honey plow of yellow prickly seeds
A                          D      F#7
Clover honey pots and mystic shining feed
B                               E7
Well the madcap laughed at the man on the border
G                C7
Hey, ho, huff the Talbot
B                      A
Cheat he cried shouting kangaroo
B                         A
So true in their tree they cried


[Chorus]

F#            B
Please leave us here
F#          B           B7      E
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!

F#


[Chorus]

F#              B
please leave us here
F#          B           B7      E
close our eyes to the Octopus ride


[Verse]

B                          A
The madcap laughed at the man on the border
B               A
Hey ho, huff the Talbot
B                           A
The winds they blew and the leaves did wag
B                           A
But they'll never put me in their bag

The seas will reach and always see

So high you go, so low you creep

The wind it blows in tropical heat

The drones they throng on mossy seats

The squeaking door will always squeak

Two up, two down will never meet

So merrily trip for forgo my side


[Chorus]

F#             B
Please leave us here
F#         B           B7      E
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!
