[C C]              [Dm Dm]
Oh the shark has pretty teeth, dear
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
And he shows them pearly white
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
Just a jack knife has Mac Heath, dear
[G7 G7] [C C]
And he keeps it out of sight.


[C C] [Dm Dm]
When the shark bites with his teeth, dear
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
Scarlet billows start to spread
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
Fancy gloves though wears Mac Heath, dear
[G7 G7] [C C]
So there's not a trace of red.

[C C] [Dm Dm]
On the sidewalk, Sunday morning
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
Lies a body oozing life
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
Someone's sneaking round the corner
[G7 G7] [C C]
Is the someone Mack the knife?

[C C] [Dm Dm]
From a tug boat by the river
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
A A cement bag's dropping down
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
The cement's just for the weight, dear
[G7 G7] [C C]
Bet you Mack is back in town.

[C C] [Dm Dm]
Louie Miller disappeared, dear
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
After drawing out his cash
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
And Mac Heath spends like a sailor
[G7 G7] [C C]
Did our boy do something rash?

[C C] [Dm Dm]
Sukey Tawdry, Jenny Diver
[G7 G7] [Am7 Am7]
Polly Peachum, Lucy Brown
[Am Am] [Dm Dm]
Oh the line forms on the right, dear
[G7 G7] [C C]
Now that Mack is back in town.
