[Opening]
[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 [Dm]came to [G7]life one [C7]day.
[verse 2]
There [F]must have been some [Em]magic in that
[Dm]Old silk [G7]hat they [C]found,
For [G]when they placed it on his head,
He [Am]began to [D7]dance [G]around.
[verse 3]
[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 [Dm]same as [G7]you and [C]me.
[verse 4]
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 [Dm]“Catch me [G7]if you [C7]can!”
[verse 5]
He [F]lead them down the [Em]streets of town
Right [Dm]to a [G7]traffic [C]cop,
And he [G]only paused one moment when
He [Am]heard them [D7]holler [G]“ Stop!”
[Closing]
For [C]Frosty the Snowman had to [F]hurry [G7]on his [C]way,
But he [F]waved goodbye, saying [C]“don’t you [Am]cry,
[Am]I’ll be [F]back ag[G]ain some [C]day!”
