[Intro]
F G F G F G
[Verse 1]
G D G C
Smiffy was a little boy, different from the rest

He had one eye pointing East and one pointing West
G D G C
Ever since Tiny Murphy hit him with a sling
F C G
Smiffy with his glass eye glittering
[Verse 2]
E Am
Playing in the school yard, how the kids would marvel
F Bb E
When Smiffy popped his glass'un out and used it for a marble
C G D
He was such a character the kids would sing
F C G F
Smiffy with his glass eye glittering
[Verse 3]
G D G C
Walking down the street when two big louts
G D G D
Come and tripped up Smiffy and his eye fell out
G D G C
They used it as a conker on a piece of string
F C G
Smiffy with his glass eye glittering
[Verse 4]
E Am
The girls all laughed when Smiffy passed them by
F Bb E
They called him Cyclops, he only had one eye
C G D
He never had a girl-friend or that sort of thing
F C G Am
Smiffy with his glass eye glittering
[Bridge]
