G                          
Dashing through the snow,  
                    C        
in a one-horse open sleigh,  
C                  D7   
O'er the fields we go,  
                 G     
laughing all the way,  
G                        
Bells on bobtails ring,  
               C        
making spirits bright,  
C                 D7             
What fun it is to ride and sing  
                 G        
a sleighing song tonight  
   
Chorus:
G                            
Jingle bells, jingle bells,  
       C       G     
jingle all the way,  
C              G           
Oh what fun it is to ride  
     A7             D7           
in a one-horse open sleigh. Oh!  
G                            
Jingle bells, jingle bells,  
       C       G     
jingle all the way,  
C             G           
Oh what fun itis to ride  
     D7             G        
in a one-horse open sleigh.  
   
G                  
A day or two ago,  
                     C      
I thought I'd take a ride,  
C                  D7      
So soon Miss Fanny Bright  
                 G      
was seated at my side;  
G                             
The horse was lean and lank,  
                      C    
misfortune seemed his lot  
C             D7             
He got into a drifted bank,  
               G       
and we, we got upsot.  
   
Chorus:
G                            
Jingle bells, jingle bells,  
       C       G     
jingle all the way,  
C              G           
Oh what fun it is to ride  
     A7             D7           
in a one-horse open sleigh. Oh!  
G                            
Jingle bells, jingle bells,  
       C       G     
jingle all the way,  
C             G           
Oh what fun itis to ride  
     D7             G        
in a one-horse open sleigh.  
   
G                         
Now the ground is white,  
                   C       
go it while you're young,  
C                 D7     
Take the girls to night  
                        G      
and sing this sleighing song;  
G                           
Just get a bob-tailed bay,  
                  C      
two-forty for his speed  
C               D7           
Hitch him to an open sleigh  
                  G               
and crack! you'll take the lead.  
   
(Kazoo Chorus then Sing Chorus)

C              G

     A7             D7           
in a one-horse open sleigh. Oh!  
G                            
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
