Froggie Went A-Courtin' Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Froggy went a -courtin'
and he did right
With a sword and a pistol [Em]by his s[D]ide
He rode till he came to Miss
Mousy's door
Where he'd often [Em]been
[D]before Miss Mouse
he came a [Em]-trippin' [D]down
Green glass slippers and a [Em]golden [D]gown
He took Miss Mouse [Em]upon his [D]knee
And he said, Miss Mouse, will you marry me?
Ki mo ka mo ka mo ki
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
Owl and a bat and a bumblebee
King Kong, Kitchi Kitchi, Kaimio
Without my Uncle Rat's consent
Oh, I would not marry the [Em]Pres[D] ident
My old rat laughed till he [Em]shook his [D]sides
To think Miss Mousy would be a bride
What will the wedding supper be?
Two butter beans and a black -eyed pea
What more will the wedding
supper be?
Buttercups and [Em]dewdrop [D]tea
Kimo kamo kamo ki
Way [Em]down yonder in a [D]hollow tree
An owl in the back and a bumblebee
King Kong kichi kichi kaimio
The first came in was a silver moth
She spread her wings for a tablecloth
The next came in was a bumblebee,
set a little banjo on her knee.
The next came in was the old gray goose,
he picked up his fiddle and he cut loose.
The next came in were two little ants,
they stood up to [Em]have a [D]dance.
way down yonder in a hollow tree,
an owl and a bat and a bumblebee,
Ding dong, kitchy, kitchy, carny, oh
Oh, what a feast, what a wedding day
Still they left for the honeymoon
right away
Now they live far off in a hollow tree
Where they have good
health and children three
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl, and a bat, and a bumblebee
King Kong, Kitschie, Kitschie, Kimee -o
Way down yonder in a hollow tree
An owl, and a bat, and a bumblebee
King Kong, Kitschie, Kitschie, Kimee -o
