(D)You might think it's (G)goofy But the (A7)man in the moon is a (D)Newfie And he's sailing on to (G)glory, a(A7)way in the golden (D)dory He's sailing on to (G)glory, a(A7)way in the golden (D)dory
Codfish Dan, from Newfoundland He (A)dreamt that he had three (D)wishes And he took Mars and all the stars And (A)turned them into big (D)fishes He said the sky was much too dry And he (A)made a wavy (D)motion And the moon like a boat began to float Up(A)on the starry (D)ocean Chrorus One night he strayed to the Milky Way To (A)cast his nets up(D)on it He spied the tail of a great big whale And he (A)harpooned Halley's (D)Comet He never had a pot for the fish that he caught So he (A)had to use the Big (D)Dipper And the sun, by jove, was a very good stove For (A)cooking up smelts and (D)kippers Chorus Now, the Northern Light that seem so bright Like (A)nothing could be (D)grander Well, they're just waves of the moon-boat made By the (A)Newfoundland com(D)mander And don't you sigh and say, 'Oh, my What (A)gross exagger(D)ation!' 'Cause he'll tell you the dream was true When (A)Codfish Dan a(D)wakens.
