 G      D         C      G
In the town where I was born
 Em      Am     Cmaj7      D
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines.
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found a sea of green,
And we lived beneath the waves
Em      Am    Cmaj7 D7
In our yellow submarine.

Chorus:
 G                D7
We all live in a yellow submarine,
                   G
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine.
We all live in a yellow submarine,
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine.

And our friends are all aboard;
Many more of them live next door.
And the band begins to play...

Chorus

And we live a life of ease,
Every one of us has all we need -
Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine.

Chorus
