Bobby Darin sings "Mack the Knife" chords
Start Jamming...
[Bb] Take a guess.
[F]
[N] Oh, [Bb] the shark, [B] baby, [Cm] has some deep blue eyes
White soul and black [Gm] pearl and white
[Dm] Just a [Bb] jackknife [Db]
[Eb] sold to MacHeath, baby
And it keeps it out [Bb] of sight
[D] You [Bb] know when that shark bites [B] with [Cm] his teeth, baby
Scarlet billows [F] [Bb] start to spill
[Bb] Fancy gloves though, wears [Cm] [Eb] MacHeath
So there's never, never a trace of red
[Bb] Now let [Gb] that thing get [B] good on a sidewalk, huh
Ooh, [Dbm] Sunday morning, uh-huh, lies [Gb] about it
[Abm] Ooh, who's in life?
[B] Someone's sneaking clear [Dbm] around the corner
Could that someone [Gb] be old [B] MacKenzie?
[G] [C] There's a tugboat, yeah, go ahead if you feel like it
[F] Down by the river, don't you know
[G] Where cement bags, just [C] drooping on down
You know that cement is less trickly [Dm] for the weighty little girl
Fire's gonna get you a [G] dime, brother, [C] MacKeith, MacKeith town
[Ab] Did you [Db] hear about Louie Miller?
He [Ebm] disappeared, honey, [Ab] never going out
All [Db] of his hard-earned cash and now MacKeith
[G]
[Bb] Spends [Ebm] like a [Ab] [Ebm] sailor, could it be
[Ab] Our [Db] boy's done something [A] rash, uh-uh, [D] uh-uh, Jimmy Diver
Look out, [G] Sookie Tawdry, left-back [A] Madalynja
Not to [D] mention old Lucy Brown
You know that that line [F]
falls [Em] on the right, mama
[A] [Em] Now that [A] MacKeith's back in this [D] here town
[Bb] I [Eb] said, Jimmy Diver, look out, [Fm] Sookie Tawdry, stay back, [Bb] Madalynja
[Fm] Ooh, that [Cm] old Miss Lucy Brown
You can bet that that line [C]
falls [Bb] on the right, babe
[Fm] Now that
[Bb] MacKeith's [Cm] back in [Ab]
town
[Cm] [Ab] [Eb] [Ab]
Look [E] out, old [A] MacKeith's back on
[F] [N]
[Ab] [N]
