Furry Old Lobster Chords

(ver. 1)
Jonathan Coulton
[Intro Riff]
Bb Bsus4 x4
     
[Verse]
     Bb      Bbsus4        Bb         Bbsus4
When I was a young boy I'd follow the path
Bb            Bbsus4       Bb  Bbsus4
Down past the dunes to the sea     
Bb           Bbsus4      Bb           Bbsus4
There on the warm sandy beaches we'd lie
Bb            Bbsus4        Bb  Bbsus4
The furry old lobsters and me
       D#          D#sus4         D#              D#sus4
They'd whistle and squeal as they ran through the waves
    D#       D#sus4    D#    D#sus4
So sleek, so furry and fair
    Bb         Bbsus4     Bb         Bbsus4
But now when I go down to see my old friends
    Bb          Bbsus4    Bb     Bbsus4
The beaches are empty and bare

[Chorus]
     Bb        F               D#           Bb
Sing hey hidey ho, where'd the old lobster go?
        Bb      D#        F
And his body so furry and brown?
     D#       F              Gm       C7
Sing ho hidey hey, have they all gone away?
       D#           F    Bb
For we haven't seen many around

[Intro Riff]

[Verse]
     Bb          Bbsus4     Bb         Bbsus4
New York sends a monster to darken our seas
Bb            Bbsus4      Bb    Bbsus4
Cursed be the day that it came
          Bb      Bbsus4        Bb       Bbsus4
They are ugly and small and not tasty at all
          Bb         Bbsus4      Bb     Bbsus4
They are lobsters in nothing but name
           D#          D#sus4        D#            D#sus4
They don't smash open clams on their bellies with stones
     D#           D#sus4       D#    D#sus4
They have neither whiskers nor paws
        Bb         Bbsus4      Bb      Bbsus4
And the furry old lobster's so easily crushed
       Bb         Bbsus4      Bb     Bbsus4
In the grip of their terrible claws

[Chorus]
     Bb        F               D#           Bb
Sing hey hidey ho, where'd the old lobster go?
        Bb      D#        F
And his body so furry and brown?
     D#       F              Gm       C7
Sing ho hidey hey, have they all gone away?
       D#           F    Bb     Gm
For we haven't seen many around
       D#           F    Bb     Gm
No, we haven't seen many around
       D#           F    Bb     
No, we haven't seen many around
