Intro D
D
Fall is here, hear the yell
Back to school, ring the bell
G
Brand new shoes, walking blues
D
Climb the fence, books and pens
A G D
I can tell that we are going to be friends
A G D
Yes I can tell that we are going to be friends
D
Walk with me Suzy Lee
Through the park and by the tree
G
We can rest upon the ground
D
And look at all the bugs we've found
A G D
Safely walk to school without a sound
A G D
We safely walk to school without a sound
D
Well here we are no one else
We walk to school all by ourselves
G
There's dirt on our uniforms
D
From chasing all the ants and worms
A G D
We clean up and now it's time to learn
A G D
We clean up and now it's time to learn
D
Numbers letters learn to spell
Nouns and books and show and tell
G
Play time we will throw the ball
D
Then back to class through the hall
A G D
The teacher marks our height against the wall
A G D
The teacher marks our height against the wall
G D
And we don't notice any time pass
G D
Because we don't notice anything
E
And we sit side by side in every class
G
The teacher thinks that I sound funny
A
But she likes it when you sing
D
Tonight I'll dream in my bed
While silly thoughts run through my head
G
Of the bugs and alphabet
D
And when I wake tomorrow I'll bet
A G D
That you and I will walk together again
A G D
Because I can tell that we are going to be friends
A G D
I can tell that we are going to be friends
