Frosty The Snowman—Nelson&Rollins

[C] Frosty the Snowman was a [F] jolly, [G7] happy [C] soul, With a [F] corncob pipe and a [C] button nose And two [G7] eyes made out of [C] coal. Frosty the Snowman is a [F] fairy [G7] tale they [C] say, He was [F] made of snow but the [C] children know How he [Em] came to [G7] life one [C7] day.

There [F] must have been some [Em] magic in that [Em] Old silk [G7] hat they [C] found, For [G] when they placed it on his head, He [AM] began to [D7] dance [G] around.

[C] Frosty the Snowman was [F] alive as [G7] he could [C] be, And the [F] children say he could [C] dance and play Just the [Em] same as [G7] you and [C] me.

Frosty the Snowman knew the [F] sun was [G7] hot that [C] day, So he said [F] “Let’s run, we’ll have [C] lots of fun Now [G7] before I melt [C] away.”. Down in the village with a [F] broomstick [G7] in his [C] hand, Running [F] here and there all [C] around the square Saying [Em] “Catch me [G7] if you [C7] can!”

He [F] lead them down the [Em] streets of town Right [Em] to a [G7] traffic [C] cop, And he [G] only paused one moment when He [AM] heard them [D7] holler [G] “Stop!”

For [C] Frosty the Snowman had to [F] hurry [G7] on his [C] way, But he [F] waved good-bye, Saying, [C] Don't you cry, I'll be [F] back a[G7]gain some [C] day
