B E7 G C7 A
Trip to heave and ho up down to and fro' you have no word
B A
trip trip to a dream dragon
B A
hide your wings in a ghost tower
B A B
sails cackling at every plate we brake
B Bb
was cracked by scattered needles
A
the little minute gong coughs and clears his throat
A

A
the old original favorite grand grasshoppers green Herbarian band
A F#7
and the tune they play is In us Confide

B E7 G C7 A
So trip to heave and ho up down to and fro' you have no word

E F F# G
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
G 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 plough 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

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


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
and they'll never put me in their bag
B A
the raging seas will always seep
B A
so high you go so low you creep
B A
the wind it blows in tropical heat
B A
the drones they throng on mossy seats
B A
the squeaking door will always squeak
B A
two up two down will never meet
B A
so merrily trip for good my side

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


Outro: E F F# G
