Ruff, the Magic Dragon


By Peter Yarrow and Leonard Lipton
Rise Up Singing chapter: Play, p.175

Peter Paul and Mary do this well, don't they? My version isn't all nicely done up like theirs, and I mess up a couple of times too. It's one more step towards finishing this project, though, and recording all the songs in the Rise Up Singing songbook - even the well-known ones.
Enjoy.

Chords: G D (Bm) C G / C G A D / 1st / C GEm AD GD

Puff, the magic dragon, lived by the sea
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honalee
Little Jackie Paper loved that rascal Puff
And brought him strings and ceiling wax and other fancy stuff
Oh, Puff... (chorus is 1st two lines repeated twice. I only repeat them once because I forgot.)
