Swinging on a Star – Bing Crosby

Intro: [C] [F] [C] [F] [C]

Would you [C] like to swing on a [D7] star, Carry [G] moonbeams home in a [C] jar, And be [A7] better off than you [D7] are? [G7] Or would you rather be a [C] mule?

A [C] mule is an [F] animal with [C] long funny [F] ears. He [C] kicks up at [F] anything he [C] hears.

His [D7] back is brawny but his [G] brain is weak. He's [D7] just plain stupid with a stub-[G]born [G7] streak.

And by the [C] way, if you [F] hate to go to [C] school, [D7] You may grow [G7] up to be a [C] mule.

Would you [C] like to swing on a [D7] star, Carry [G] moonbeams home in a [C] jar, And be [A7] better off than you [D7] are? [G7] Or would you rather be a [C] pig? A [C] pig is an [F] animal with [C] dirt on his [F] face His [C] shoes are a [F] terrible dis-[C] grace.

He [D7] has no manners when he [G] eats his food He's [D7] fat and lazy and extre-[G]mely [G7] rude.

But if you [C] don't care a [F] feather or a [C] fig, [D7] You may grow [G7] up to be a [C] pig.

Would you [C] like to swing on a [D7] star, Carry [G] moonbeams home in a [C] jar, And be [A7] better off than you [D7] are? [G7] Or would you rather be a [C] fish? A [C] fish won't do [F] anything but [C] swim in a [F] brook He [C] can't write his [F] name or read a [C] book.

To [D7] fool the people is his [G] only thought, and [D7] though he's slippery, he [G] still gets [G7] caught.

But then if [C] that sort of [F] life is what you [C] wish, [D7] You may grow [G7] up to be a [C] fish

And all the [D7] monkeys aren't in the [G7] zoo Every [G7] day you meet quite a [C] few. So, you [A7] see, it's all up to [D7] you. [G7] You can be better than you [A7] are. [D7] You could be [G7] swingin' on a [C] star!


This Land Is Your Land - Words and Music by Woody Guthrie

Chorus: This land is [F] your land This land is [C] my land

From Cali [G7] fornia to the New York [C] island; [C7]

From the red wood [F] forest to the Gulf Stream[C] wa…[Am]-ters

[G7] This land was made for you and me [C] [C7] (x2 at end)

As I was [F] walking that ribbon of [C]highway, I saw a- [G7] bove me that endless[C] skyway: [C7]

I saw be-[F] low me that golden[C] val-[Am]-ley:

[G7] This land was made for you and me. [C] [C7]

(Repeat Chorus)

I've roamed and [F] rambled and I followed my[C] footsteps

To the sparkling [G7] sands of her diamond [C] deserts;[C7]

And all a [F] round me a voice was[C] soun-[Am]-ding:


(Repeat Chorus)

When the sun came [F] shining, and I was [C] strolling,

And the wheat fields [G7] waving and the dust clouds[C] rolling,[C7]

As the fog was [F] lifting a voice was [C] chan-[Am]-ting:


(Repeat Chorus)

As I went [F] walking I saw a [C] sign there

And on the [G7] sign it said "No Tres-[C]passing." [C7]

But on the [F] other side it didn't say [C] no-[Am]-thing,

[G7] That side was made for you and me.[C] [C7]

( Repeat Chorus/acapella/Repeat)

[C] Play your digeri-[F] doo, Blue, [G7] Play your digeri-[C] doo[C] Keep playing 'til I shoot [F] through, Blue, [G7] Play your digeri-[C] doo

Repeat Chorus:

[C] Tan me hide when I'm [F] dead, Fred, [G7] Tan me hide when I'm [C] dead[C] So we tanned his hide when he [F] died, Clyde (stop)(Spoken) And that's it hanging on the shed.
