Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow    [Verse] E  E  E  A

In a one-horse open sleigh          F#m B7 B7 E

Over the fields we go               E  E  E  A

Laughing all the way                A  B7 B7 E-B7

Bells on bobtails ring - Making spirits bright

What fun it is to ride

And sing a sleighing song tonight, oh    [Chorus]

                                             (x2)

Jingle bells, jingle bells             E E E-A E

Jingle all the way                     A E F#7  B7

Oh, what fun it is to ride             E E E-A E

In a one-horse open sleigh, (hey/…)    A E B7  E


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      ║ Jingle Bells ║

Misfortune seemed his lot        ╚══════════════╝

He got into a drifted bank

And then we got upset, oh                [Chorus]


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, oh

                                         [Chorus]

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, oh      [Chorus]
