Verse 1:

C

My bed is made of candy floss

Eb

The house is made of cheese

C

It's lit by lots of glowworms

Eb

If I'm wrong correct me please

[repeat intro, 2X]

Verse 2:

The village is a pop-up book

The people wooden dolls

The roads are made from treacle

Think it's time that I moved on

[repeat intro, 2X]

Bridge:

Dm7 G

My boat is half a walnut shell

Dm7 G

The journey will be long

Dm7 G

So I filled the hold with peppermints

Dm7 G

And creamy pink blancmange

F

I sailed away for fifteen days

F#

It never once got dark

F

And came upon two large houses

F#

Set out in a park

Verse 3:

On the door of one was truth

On the other door was lies

Which one should I enter through

I really must decide

[repeat intro, w/lyrics:]

Am Em

The door marked lies had lots of flowers growing 'round outside

Am Em

But looking closer, noticed it was crumbling inside

Verse 4:

The door marked truth was very plain

But stood up very strong

And when I entered thru its door

I knew I wasn't wrong
