G D C G
In the town where I was born
Em Am C G
Lived a man who sailed to sea
G D C G
And he told us of his life
Em Am C D
In the land of submarines
G D C G
So we sailed up to the sun
Em Am C G
Till we found the sea of green
G D C G
And we lived beneath the waves
Em Am C D
In our yellow submarine
CHORUS:
G D
We all live in a yellow submarine
G
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
G D
We all live in a yellow submarine
G
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all on board
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play ...
CHORUS
As we live a life of ease
Everyone of us has all we need
Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine ...
