7 C FROSTY THE SNOWMAN Funstrummers Written by Steve Nelson and Jack Rollins, sung by Gene Autry 1950 C F C Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul, F C A7 Dm G7 C With a corncob pipe and a button nose and a two eyes made out of coal. C F C Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale they say. F C A7 Dm G7 C He was made of snow but the children know how he came to life that day.

Bridge 1 F Em Dm C There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found. D7 Am D7 G7 For when they placed it on his head, he began to dance around.

C F C Oh, Frosty the snowman was as alive as he could be. F C A7 And the children say he could laugh and play Dm G7 C Just the same as you and me.

C F C F Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day. So he said C A7 Dm G7 C “Let’s run and we’ll have some fun, now before I melt away.” C F C F Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand, running here C A7 Dm G7 C And there all around the square, saying “Catch me if you can.”

8 Bridge 2 F Em Dm G7 C He led them down the streets of town, right to the traffic cop. D7 Am D7 G7 And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler “Stop!”

G7 C F C F So Frosty the snowman had to hurry on his way, but he waved goodbye C G7 C Saying, “Don’t you cry, I’ll be back again some day.”

Outro G7 Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.

Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, C G7 C Over the hills of snow / /
