C
Dashing through the snow
F
On a one-horse open sleigh,
G7
O'er the fields we go
C
Laughing all the way;
C
Bells on bob-tail ring
F
Making spirits bright.
G7
What fun it is to ride and sing
C G7
A sleighing song tonight.
Chorus:
C
Jingle bells jingle bells,
G7 C
Jingle all the way!
F C
O what fun it is to ride
G7 C
In a one-horse open sleigh.
C
A day or two ago
F
I thought I'd take a ride
G7
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
C
Was seated by my side.
C
The horse was lean and lank;
F
Misfortune seemed his lot;
G7
He got into a drifted bank
C G7
And we we got upsot.
Chorus
C
A day or two ago—
F
The story I must tell—
G7
I went out on the snow
C
And on my back I fell;
C
A gent was riding by
F
In a one-horse open sleigh.
G7
He laughed as there I sprawling lie
C G7
But quickly drove away.
Chorus
C
Now the ground is white,
F
Go it while you're young.
G7
Take the girls tonight
C
And sing this sleighing song.
C
Just get a bob-tailed bay
F
Two-forty for his speed.
G7
Hitch him to an open sleigh
C G7
And crack! you'll take the lead.
Chorus
