Verse 1

[Bb] [Cm]

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear

[F7] [Bb]

And it shows them pearly white

[Gm] [Cm]

Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe

[F7] [Bb]

And he keeps it, ah, out of sight

Verse 2

[Cm]

Ya know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe

[F7] [Bb]

Scarlet billows start to spread

[Gm] [Cm]

Fancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babe

[F7] [Bb] [B]

So there's never, never a trace of red

Verse 3

[B] [C#m]

Now on the sidewalk, uh huh, huh, oh, Sunday morning, uh huh

[F#7] [B]

Lies a body just oozing life

[G#m] [C#m]

Someone's sneaking 'round the corner

[F#7] [B] [C]

Could that someone be Mack, the knife?

Verse 4

[C] [Dm]

There's a tug boat, uh huh, huh huh, down by the river, dont you know?

[G7] [C]

Where a cement bags just a-drooping on down

Five will get you ten ol' Macky's back in town

Verse 5

[Db] [Ebm]

Now d'ya hear about Louis Miller, he disappeared, babe

[Ab7] [Db]

After drawing out all his hard earned cash

And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor

[Ab7] [Db] [D]

Could it be our boy's done something rash?

Verse 6

[D] [Em]

Now Jenny Diver, huh huh, yeah, Sookie Taudry

[A7] [D]

Now that Macky's back in town

Verse 7

[Eb] [Fm]

I said Jenny Diver, woah, woah Sookie Taudry

Look out Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown

Yes, that line forms on the right, babe

Now that Macky's back in town

[Eb] [Db]

Look out, old Macky's back
