Main riff over C5 D#5 D5 C5 x4
[Verse 1]
C5
Chip worked as a boatwright
C5
As his father and his gran
C5
Working in a boatyard
D#5 D5 C5
Building on the River Thames
C5
One day Chip was hard at work
C5
The Devil appeared from hell
C5
He held a roll of copper
D#5 D5 C5
And a bucket full of nails
[Pre-Chorus]
C5
The Devil said unto Chip
( D5 )
Take these nails and copper roll
( D#5 )
But you also have to take this rat
( D5 ) A#5 C5
And I will take your soul
Chip despised the rat
D#5
And the rat squealed and hissed
A#5
But the bucket o' nails and copper
D#5 D5 C5
Were too much to resist
[Interlude]
G#5 A#5 G#5 F5
Main riff over C5 D#5 D5 C5 x2
[Verse 2]
C5
Chip went straight to work
C5
He'd get rid of the rat
C5
And there would not be a problem
D#5 D5 C5
With his death after the fact
C5
But the devil rat wouldn't die
C5
No matter how hard he tried
C5
The rat attacked the boatwright
D#5 D5 C5
And he bit him in the eye
[Pre-Chorus]
C5
It seemed as if the river rats
( D5 )
Fell under Satan's spell
( D#5 )
They followed Chip around
( D5 ) A#5 C5
And made his life a living hell
He slowly lost his mind
D#5
He lost his family
A#5
He lost his job
D#5 D5 C5
And had to join the Kings' Navy
G#5 A#5 G#5 F5
[Chorus]
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 D#5
As Satan is my master
G#5 A#5
I will get you Chip
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 A#5 G5
As Satan is my master
G5
I'm gonna get you
[Interlude]

Main riff over C5 D#5 D5 C5 x2
[Verse 3]
C5
The rats chased Chip
N.C
Up the gangplank of the ship
N.C
And they bit him and they tortured him
Until he finally flipped
C5
He sniveled to the captain
C5
To turn around his rig
C5 C5
The captain spied his madness
C5
And he chucked him in the brig
[Pre-Chorus]
C5
The devil rat had his man
( D5 )
He knew just what to do
( D#5 )
He'd command the rats
( D5 ) A#5 C5
And through the planks they'd chew
The water rushed in
D#5
And the ship went down
A#5
She was smashed around the rocks
D#5 D5 C5
On which the rats danced around
G#5 A#5 G#5 F5
[Chorus]
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 D#5
As Satan is my master
G#5 A#5
I will get you Chip
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 D#5
As Satan is my master
G#5 A#5
I will get you Chip
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 D#5
As Satan is my master
G#5 A#5
I will get you Chip
C5 D#5
A lemon grows a pip
G#5 A#5
A yard will build a ship
C5 D#5 G5
As Satan is my master
C5
I got you Chip
