[Verse 1] ABF#mG# Legend has it that the moss grows on the north side of the trees C#mBF#mG# Legend has it that when the rain comes down, all the worms come up to breathe C#mBC#mF#mG# Legend has it that when the sunbeams come, the plants, they eat them with their leaves C#mEAG# Legend has it that the world spins round on an axis of 23 degrees
[Chorus] C#m But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon F#m Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon A Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune EC#mG# And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom
[Verse 2] C#m Well, we can all learn things both many and a-few F#m 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 EC#mG# Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop
[Verse 3] AC#mG# Come listen up all ye fair maids to how the moral goes C#mC#mG# Nobody knew and nobody knows C#mBF#m How the pobble was robbed of his twice five toes C#mAC#mG# Or how the dong came to own a luminous nose C#mABEG# Or how the jumblies went to sea in a sieve that they rowed C#mAG# And came to shore by the chankly bore where the bong trees grow C#mEA Where the jabberwocky's small green tentacles do flow AC#m And the quanglewangle plays in the rain and the snow
[Chorus] C#m But have you heard the story of the rabbit in the moon F#m Or the cow that hopped the planets while straddling a spoon A Or she, who leapt up mountains, while whistling up a tune EC#mG# And swapped her songs with swallows while riding on a broom
[Verse 4] C#m Well, we can all learn things both many and a-few F#m 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 EC#mG# Or the man who drank too much and he got the brewers' droop
