There was a boy whose name was Jim

At last he swallowed, some which tied

Itself in ugly knots inside

For all the time spent in that room

The doll's house darkness old perfume
B          A      G       F#
And fairy stories held me high

On clouds of sunlight floating by

G  A       G       E
Oh mother, tell me more.
