Verse 1:
A                      B                 Gbm                  Ab
Legend has it that the moss grows on the north side of the trees
Dbm                        B                         Gbm               Ab
Legend has it that when the rain comes down, all the worms come up to breathe
Dbm                          B        Dbm         Gbm                         Ab
Legend has it that when the sunbeams come, the plants, they eat them with their leaves
Dbm                   E                        A           Ab
Legend has it that the world spins round on an axis of 23 degrees
 
Chorus:
Dbm
But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon
Gbm
Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon
A
Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
E                            Dbm                      Ab
And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom
 
Verse 2:
Dbm
Well, we can all learn things both many and a-few
Gbm
From that old hunched woman who lived inside a shoe
A
Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
E                                 Dbm                 Ab
Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop
 
Verse 3:
A                               Dbm               Ab
Come listen up all ye fair maids to how the moral goes
Dbm             Dbm         Ab
Nobody knew and nobody knows
Dbm               B              Gbm
How the pobble was robbed of his twice five toes
Dbm          A                  Dbm       Ab
Or how the dong came to own a luminous nose
Dbm        A              B             E              Ab
Or how the jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed
Dbm                       A                             Ab
And came to shore by the chankly bore where the bong trees grow
Dbm                      E         A
Where the jabberwocky's small green tentacles do flow
A                                  Dbm
And the quanglewangle plays in the rain and the snow
 
Chorus:
Dbm
But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon
Gbm
Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon
A
Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune
E                            Dbm                      Ab
And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom
 
Verse 4:
Dbm
Well, we can all learn things both many and a-few
Gbm
From that old hunched woman who lived inside a shoe
A
Or the girl that sang by day and by night she ate tear soup
E                                 Dbm                 Ab
Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop
