[A7+5] [A7] [D] [D6]
Tell me where do they go,
[A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D] [DM7] [D7] [D7/F#]
These smoke rings I blow each night?
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D] [Bm7] [Em7] [A7]
What do they do these circles of blue and white?
[A7+5] [D] [D6] [A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D] [DM7] [D7] [D7/F#]
And why do they seem to picture a dream of love?
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D]
Why do they fade my phantom parade of love?
[D] [D6] [A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D] [DM7] [D7] [D7/F#]
Where do they end, the smoke rings I send on high?
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D] [Bm7] [Em7] [A7]
Where are they hurled when they've kissed the world good-bye?
[A7+5] [D] [D6] [A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D] [DM7] [D7] [D7/F#]
Oh, I'd give my life to laugh at this stife be - low;
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D]
I'd be a king, I'd follow each ring I blow.
[D] [D6] [A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D] [DM7] [D7] [D7/F#]
Puff, puff, puff, puff your cares away;
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D] [Bm7] [Em7] [A7]
Puff, puff, puff night and day.
[D] [A7+5] [D6] [E7]/9 [Bm7]-5 [E7]
Blow, blow them through the air, silky little rings,
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D] [Bm7] [Em7] [A7]
Blow, blow them ev'rywhere, give your troubles wings.
[D] [D6] [A7+5] [A7] [Fdim] [D9]
What do they tell and what is the spell they cast?
[G] [G/E] [Em7]-5 [A7] [A7+5] [D] [Bm7] [Em7] [A7]
Some of them fall and seem to recall the past.
[A7+5] [D] [D6] [A7+5] [D6] [E7]/9
But most of them rise away to the skies of blue.
[E7] [G]
Oh, little smoke rings I love,
[Em7]-5 [A7-9] [Edim] [A7] [D] [G7] [D6]
Please take me above, take me with you.
