C                                        F           C 
Frosty the Snow Man was a jolly happy soul 
       F                   C                                          F                G7 
With a corn-cob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal. 
C                                       F               C 
Frosty the Snow Man is a fairy tale they say 
       F       F#dim        C        Am                             F       G7       C 
He was made of snow but the children know how he came to life one day. 
      F                   Em                                  Dm       G7       C 
There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found, 
    G                E                                 Am     D      G7 
For when they put it on his head he began to dance around. 
    C                                          F               C 
Oh, Frosty the Snow Man was alive as he could be, 
        F        F#dim        C         Am                            F       G       C 
And the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me. 
C                                        F           C 
Frosty the Snow Man  knew the sun was hot that day, 
       F                   C                                          F                G7 
So he said, "Let's run  and we'll have some fun now before I melt away." 
C                                       F               C 
Down to the village with a broomstick in his hand, 
       F       F#dim        C        Am                             F       G7       C 
Running here and there all around the square, saying "Catch me if you can." 
      F                   Em                                  Dm       G7       C 
He led them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop, 
    G                E                                 Am     D      G7 
And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler, "Stop!" 
    C                                          F               C 
Frosty the Snow Man had to hurry on his way, 
        F        F#dim        C         Am                                F       G       C 
But he waved good-bye, saying, "Don't you cry I'll be back again some day" 
C 
Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump 
               G7 
Look at Frosty go. 
C 
Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump 
               G7 
Over the hills of snow
