Now once upon a time - an old man told me a fable
G Em C D
When the piper is gone - and the soup is cold on your table
G Em
And if the black crow flies to find a new destination
G Em
That is the sign
Am Bm7-Am
Come tonight
Am Bm7-Am
Come to the ogre sight
Am G Am G-Am-G-Am-G D
Come to the ogre-battle-fight
G Em
He gives a great big cry and he can swallow up the ocean
G Em C D
With a mighty tongue he catches flies - the palm of a hand incredible size
G Bm Am Bm
One great big eye - has a focus in your direction
G Em
Now the battle is on (Yeah yeah yeah)
Come tonight
Come to the ogre sight
Come to the ogre-battle-fight

Hoooa
A (hit at the beginning of each line)
The ogre-men are still inside
The two-way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down right out of sight
You can't see in, but they can see out
B
"Ooh keep a look out"
B (hit at the beginning of each line)
The ogre-men are coming out
From the two-way mirror mountain
They're running up behind and they're coming all about
Can't go east 'cos you gotta go south
[guitar solo]
Aaargh
Aaaaaaaarghh
Am
Ogre-men are going home
Am C Am
The great big fight is over
Bdim
Bugle blow, let trumpet cry
(Bdim) E Am Dm-Am-Dm
Ogre battle lives forever more - oh oh oh
Am
You can come along
Am

Am Bdim Am-Bdim Am-Em
Come to ogre battle
