Jingle Bells

   C                                      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                             C
Bells on bob tails ring
   C                          F
Making spirits bright
             F                                      G
What fun it is to laugh and sing
       G                            C
A sleighing song tonight

        C                    C
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
  C                      C
Jingle all the way
  F                         C
Oh, what fun it is to ride
         D                               G
In a one horse open sleigh
  C                               C
Jingle bells, jingle bells
  C                       C
Jingle all the way
  F                                    C
Oh, what fun it is to ride
          G                              C
In a one horse open sleigh

(lesser-known verses follow with the same chord structure)

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
