============== transcribed by litgo@aol.com ==============
Dm Dm/A C/G C/E Once upon a time, there lived an old miser man Dm F G Em By the name of Silas Stingy Dm Am G C He carried all his money in a little black box, Dm Bb C Am Which was heavy as a rock with a big padlock Bb G Am F All the little kids would shout when Silas was about
[chorus] Em F Gm Am Money money money bags, money money money bags Dm (Dm) C (Bb) Am F Bb (Bb) Am (G) Dm/F Dm There goes mingy Stingy, there goes mingy Stin-gy
Em F Gm Am Money money money bags, money money money bags Dm (Dm) C (Bb) Am F Bb (Bb) Am (G) F/A Dm/F There goes mingy Stingy, there goes mingy Stin-gy
Silas didn't eat, which was just as well He would starve himself for a penny He wore old clothes and he never washed 'Cause soap cost a lot And the dirt kept him hot All the little kids would shout When Silas was about
[repeat chorus]
D5 D5 C#5 D5 D5 C#5 D5 D5C#5 D5 D5 C#5 In the back of his head was a voice that said, G5 F#5 F5 E5 Eb5 D5 Bb5 "Someone will steal it all D5 D5 C#5 D5 D5 C#5 D5 D5 C#5 D5 D5 C#5 He'll be lying in the gutter with an empty box, G5 F#5 F5 E5 Eb5 D5 C5 The thieves will be having a ball"
[repeat chorus]
Dm
Dm A Bb F He bought a safe to put the box in and a house to put the safe in Gm Dm Am And a watchdog on a chain to make quite sure Bb F Gm Dm And his face was very funny when he counted up his money Bb Am And he realized he hadn't any more
[repeat chorus; final repeat:]
Bb (Bb) Am (G) A D There goes mingy Stingy
