Over The River And Through The Woods chords
Danny Kaye (Lydia Maria Child 1844) *

AOver the river and through the woods
   D             E7       ATo Grandmother's house we go.
    E7                     AThe horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
        B7                E    E7   Through white and drifted snow.
A      Over the river and through the woods,
    D       E7        AOh, how the wind does blow.
   D          E7       AIt stings the toes and bites the nose
   E        E7        AAs over the ground we go.

AOver the river and through the woods
   D      E7          ATo have a full day of play.
    E7                     AOh, hear the bells ringing ting-a-ling-ling,
    B7              E   E7For it is Christmas Day.
AOver the river and through the woods,
     D       E7     ATrot fast my dapple gray;
       D        E7          ASpring o'er the ground just like a hound,
    E       E7        AFor this is Christmas Day.
AOver the river and through the woods
    D                    E7       AAnd straight through the barnyard gate.
   E7                  AIt seems that we go so dreadfully slow;
B7              E    E7It’s so hard to wait.
AOver the river and through the woods,
    D         E7    ANow Grandma's cap I spy.
   D       E7       AHurrah for fun; the pudding's done;
   E           E7      AHurrah for the pumpkin pie.
