Introduction:  G   D7   G  

 G                           C            G 
Frosty the Snow Man, was a jolly happy soul
        C                    G 
With a corn-cob pipe and a button nose
         D                 G 
and two eyes made out of coal.

 G                          C                G 
Frosty the Snow Man, is a fairy tale they say
        C                     G 
He was made of snow but the children know
        C        D7        G 
how he came to life one day.

       C                    Bm              Am                 G 
There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found,
     D                 C#º           Em              D 
For when they put it on his head he began to dance around.

     G                          C                G 
Oh, Frosty the Snow Man was alive as he could be,
         C                      G 
And the children say he could laugh and play
          C        D7        G 
just the same as you and me.

 G                                C                 G 
Frosty the Snow Man,'   knew the sun was hot that day,
       C                            G 
So he said, "Let' s run  and we' ll have some fun
       C       D7     G 
now before I melt away."

 G                            C                  G 
Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand,
         C                    G 
Running here and there all around the square,
         C            D7   G 
saying "Catch me if you can."

    C                  Bm                     Am              G 
He led them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop,
        D              C#º           Em                  D 
And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler, "Stop!"

 G                           C             G 
Frosty the Snow Man had to hurry on his way,
        C                         G 
But he waved good-bye, saying, "Don' t you cry 
         C      D7         G 
I' ll be back again some day."

 G 
Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump,
                D7 
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump,
                                                G 
over the hills of snow...Oh...Oh...over the hills of snow.
