|JINGLE BELLS|
 /\/\/\/\/\/\
It's an easy christmas song, but you sometimes have to play 2 chords in one bar.

Verse 1:
--------
D                                                  G
Dashing through the ' snow, in a ' one-horse open sleigh,
                   A    A7              D
O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way,
D                                      G
Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright,
                  A               A7                D
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song to-night, oh

Chorus:
-------
D                                          D7
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
G                 D            (Em       E7)  A       A7
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey,
D                                          D7
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,
G              D               (A        A7)   D
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.


Verse 2: [play the same chords as in Verse 1)
--------
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. Oh!


Chorus
------


Verse 3:
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 lay but quickly drove away.  Oh! 


Chorus
------


Verse 4:
--------
Now the ground is white, go it while you're young
Take the girls along and sing this sleighing song
Just bet a bobtailed bay, Two forty as his speed
Hitch him to an open sleigh and crack! You'll take the lead. Oh!


Chorus
------
[last line:]  G              D               A            A7       D
              Oh what fun it is to ride in a one....horse o....pen sleigh...
