Nine Cats Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

AmThe butterfly sailed on the breDeze

F7MPast a field of barbed wire trEees

AmWhere golden dragons chased aroDund

F7MPampered poppies on the grEound

CTwo silver trout sat way on hAmigh F7M

CAnd watched a rGoyal samurAmai F

CPlant two black orchids in a bAmox F7M

 ACnd strap it tGo a laughing fAmox F7M

AmA minstrel bought a crooked spDoon

AmHe gave it to a blue babDoon

AmWho filled it full of virgin sDnow

 And wF7Matched it iGn the aftergAmlow

Fat toad stood in his ballet shoes

Teaching sixteen kangaroos

How to skip across a lake

They found it hard to stay awake

A pharaoh played a merry tune

And watched nine cats dance on the moon

I didn't know what all this meant

I didn't know why I'd been sent.

The Insignificance version of Nine Cats has the following additional verse at the end:

I threw 5 clocks down on my bed

The chimes danced out on golden threads

And turned to footprints on my wall

Sequined tears began to fall
