      Am       B      E7       Am
While horsemen ride across the green
Am         B       E7      Am
Snow White still remains unseen.
F       G        Abdim  Am                       Abdim
And Pegasus, the winged horse,                  4x343x
  Am       B    E7     Am
relays his messages by Morse.

          Dm        F+/C#  F/C                   F+/C#
      And like some pirate sailor               x4322x
         Dm          F+/C#   F/C
      we crossed the Spanish Main
          Am          B     E7 Am
      and brought our magic carpet
           F7 (hold for 8 beats)
      to a marble staircased plain.

(Riff)

While Handel plays his melody
doctors'cause uncertainty
and though I know the lifeguard's brave
there is no one for him to save.

      And like some pirate sailor
      we crossed the Spanish Main
      and brought our magic carpet
      to a marble staircased plain.

(Riff / flute solo over verse / guitar solo over chorus / riff)

Cock Robin views his frozen feet
and wraps them in a winding sheet
and calls out for his favourite drink,
the Persian that's as warm as mink.

      And like some pirate sailor
      we crossed the Spanish Main
      and brought our magic carpet
      to a marble staircased plain.
