  • Musically, this song is pretty simple. ItUs in E major,
    4/4 timing, and uses only three chords. (E,A,C# minor)
    The same bass strum/alternating thumb pattern is used
  • throughout. Count it as 1 2 3&4&. The only change in the
    pattern comes in measures 2 and 3 of part 2. In measure two
    the second thumb strike is a hammer-on, so youUll have to
  • count it as 1 2 3&&4&, and measure three has no eighth
    notes at all.
    Enough of me rambling hereUs the two main parts:

    Donovan plays part 1 without the A chord, just four
  • measures of E, as an intro and then in between every verse.
    Each verse is four lines long, using part 1 for the first
    three lines and part 2 for the last one.

    HereUs the lyrics, just in case:
     
  • Come all Tye starry starfish, living in the deep blue sea
    Crawl to me I have, a proposition to make thee
    Would you walk the north sea floor, to Belgium from England
  • Bring me word of the banjo man, with the tattoo on his hand
     
    The spokesman of the starfish, spoke as spokesmen should
  • If in you met our fee, then certainly we would
    Should you cast a looking glass, upon the scalloped sand
    YouUll have word of this banjo man, with the tattoo on his hand
  •  
    Oh come you starry starfish, I know your ways are caved
    Maybe itUs because you are, astrologically shaped
  • Converse with the herring shoals, as I know you can
    Bring me word of the banjo man, with the tattoo on his hand
     
  • The eldest of the starfish, spoke after a sigh
    youthful as you are young man, you have a wisdom high
    surely you must know, a looking glass is made from sand
  • these young fish are fooling you, about your banjo man
     
    Oh come now aged starfish, riddle me no more
  • For news I am weary, an my heart is sore
    All on the silent sea shore, help me if you can
    Tell to me if you know, of the banjo man
  •  
    Now all through the seven oceans, I am a star most famed
    Many leg-ees have I lost, and many I have gained
  • Strange to say quite recently, I have been to Flemish land
    and if you are courteous, IUll tell you all I can
     
  • Oh you have my full attention, I answered him with glee
    His brother starts were twinkling, in the sky above the sea
    There I sat there with rapt, attention on the sand
  • very anxious for to hear, of the banjo man
     
    I have seen the tattooed hand, through a ship porthole
  • Steaming on the watery main, through the waves so cold
    heard his tinkling banjo, and his voice so grand
    But you must come to Belgium to shake the tattooed hand
  •  
    Oh gladly I would come, gladly I would go
    Had I not my work to do, and my face to show
  • But I rejoice to hear heUs well, but I must go inland
    Thank you for the words you brought, of the banjo man
     
  • I walked along the evening sand, as charcoal clouds did shift
    Revealing the moon shining, on the pebble drift
    contemplating every other, word the starfish said
  • Wispy winds they filled my dreams, in my dreaming bed.
