James Pierpont - Jingle Bells

                Jingle Bells

C
Dashing through the snow
C                   F
In a one-horse open sleigh
F                  G
O'er the fields we Go
G                 C
Laughing all the way
C
Bells on bobtail ring
C              F
Making spirits bright
F                 G
What fun it is to ride and sing
G                 C
A sleighing song tonight!


CHORUS
C
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
C
Jingle all the way.
F               C
Oh! what fun it is to ride
      G
In a one-horse open sleigh.
C    
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
C
Jingle all the way;
F                C
Oh! what fun it is to ride
G
In a one-horse open sleigh.


A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon, Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side,
The horse was lean and lank
Misfortune seemed his lot
He got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot.




A day or two ago,
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow,
And on my back I fell;
A gent was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh,
He laughed as there I sprawling lie,
But quickly drove away.



Now the ground is white
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls tonight
and sing this sleighing song;
Just get a bobtailed?bay
Two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh
And crack! you'll take the lead.
