[VERSE 1]
The [C]Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green [G7]boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
Wrapped up in a five-pound [C]note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And [C7]sang to a small gui[F]tar,
"O lovely Pussy! O [C]Pussy, my love,
What a [F]beautiful Pussy you [C]are, you are,
What a [F]beautiful Pussy you [C]are!"
[VERSE 2]
Pussy [C]said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!
How charmingly sweet you [G7]sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:
But what shall we do for a [C]ring?"
They sailed away, for a year and a day,
To the [C7]land where the Bong-Tree [F]grows
And there in a wood a [C]Piggy-wig stood
With a [F]ring at the end of his [C]nose, his nose,
With a [F]ring at the end of his [C]nose.
[VERSE 3]
"Dear [C]Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling
Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I [G7]will."
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the [C]hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible [F]spoon;
And [C7]hand in hand, on the ed[C]ge of the sand,
They [F]danced by the light of the [C]moon, the moon,
They [F]danced by the light of the [C]moon.
