F7         E7                A7 
Would you like to swing on a star 
        D7                 G     F7 
Carry moonbeams home in a jar  
         E7                A7   D7       
And be better off than you are  
                           G 
Or would you rather be a mule 
   G         C            G          C                     
A mule is an animal with long funny ears 
   G            C           G        Em7 
Kicks up at anything he hears.  
     A7                      D                                
His back is brawny but his brain is weak 
      Em7         A7            D       D7 
He's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak.  
            G            C              G    F7    E7   Am7 
And by the way, if you hate to go to school 
             D7          G 
You may grow up to be a mule.  
   F7         E7                A7 
Or would you like to swing on a star?  
      D7                  G     F7 
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?  
        E7                 A7   D7      
And be better off than you are 
                              G 
Or would you rather be a pig?  
   G         C            G          C 
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face;  
     G            C          G        Em7 
His shoes are a terrible disgrace.  
    A7                     D                                   
He has no manners when he eats his food 
        Em7      A7       D         D7 
He's fat and lazy and extremely rude;  
            G            C            G   F7   E7    
But if you don't care a feather or a fig 
        Am7             D7          G         
You may grow up to be a pig 
     F7         E7                A7               
Or would you like to swing on a star 
          D7                   G     F7 
Carry moonbeams home in a jar?  
        E7                 A7   D7       
And be better off than you are  
                             G 
Or would you rather be a fish 
   G              C            G          C 
A fish won't do anything, but swim in a brook 
     G              C              G        Em7     
He can't write his name or read a book 
   A7                     D 
To fool the people is his only thought 
     Em7         A7            D         D7                   
And though he's slippery, he still gets caught 
             G            C                G    F7    E7   Am7 
But then if that sort of life is what you wish 
             D7          G                 
You may grow up to be a fish  
         F7       E7                   A7 
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo 
       D7                   G     F7        
Every day you meet quite a few 
           E7                 A7   D7 
So you see it's all up to you   
                            G   G/F#  Em A7 
You can be better than you are         
                D7            G 
You could be swingin' on a star
