Jingle Bells

G C Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh, D7 G O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way, G C Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright, D7 G What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight, oh Chorus: G G7 Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, C G A7 D D7 Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey, G G7 Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, C G D7 G Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. Other verses: 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 we, 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 bob-tailed bay two-forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you'll take the lead. James Pierpont - 1857
