Mack The Knife

Dmi

1. Oh, the shark babe has such teeth dear,

G7 C6

and he shows them, pearly white.

Emi Cdimi7 Dmi

Just a jack knife has old MacHeath babe,

G7 C6

and he keeps it out of sight.

Dmi

2. You know when that shark bites, with his teeth, dear.

G7 C6

Scarlet billows start to spread

Emi Cdimi7 Dmi

And fancy gloves though has old MacHeath babe,

So there's never, never a trace of red.

3. On the sidewalk, one Sunday morning, don't you know

lies a body, just oozin' life.

Dbdim7 Ebm

And someone's sneaking 'round the corner,

Could that be our boy Mack the Knife?

D6 Emi

4. From a tugboat, down by the river don´t ya know,

A7 D6

There´s a cement bag just dropping on down.

Ddimi7 Emi

That cement there is there for the weight dear

Five will get you ten old Mackie's back in town.

5. Dear Louis Miller, he disappeared babe,

After drawing out all his hard earned cash.

And now MacHeath spends, he spends just like a, like a sailor

Could it be, could it be, could it be, our boy´s done something rash?

6. Hey, Jenny Diver, oh Sookie Taudry,

B7 E6

Look out Miss Mary Lennor, oh Lucy Brown

Here the line forms, on the right babe.

Now that MacHeath's, back in town.

F6 Gmi C7

7. I say Jenny Diver, oh Sookie Taudry,

F6

Look out Miss Mary Lennor, and oh Lucy Brown

Here the line forms, on the right babe.

F6 Fdimi7 F6 Fdimi7 F6 Fdimi7

Now that MacHeath's, back in town.

F6

*: Look out old MacHeath is back!
