Okay so this one actually has nothing to do with Christmas at all but we associate
it with Christmas anyway.

Jingle Bells

[C] Dashing through the snow in a one-horse open [F] sleigh,
[Dm] O'er the fields we [G] go, laughing all the [C] way.
Bells on bobtail ring, making spirits [F] bright;
What [Dm] fun it is to [G] ride and sing a sleighing song to[C]night.

[C] Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.
[F] Oh what fun it [C] is to ride in a [D7] one-horse open [G] sleigh.
[C] Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way.
[F] Oh what fun it [C] is to ride in a [G] one-horse open [C] sleigh.

JINGLE BELLS

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Through the fields we go
Laughing all the way.
Bells on bob-tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight.


chorus: Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh, O
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride
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,
We ran into a drifted bank
And there 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 at me as
I there sprawling laid
But quickly drove away.

Now the ground is white,
Go it while you're young,
Take the girls along
And sing this sleighing song.
Just bet a bob-tailed bay,
Two-forty as his speed,
Hitch him to an open sleigh
and crack! You'll take the lead.
