verse 1 
G          Dsus4       C          G 
Here is a tale of the trees in a wood 
            Em         C             G               D 
They were never that pleased on the land that they stood 
         C              D         G           C 
So they upped and they walked as far as they could 
           G            D               C        G 
'Til they felt the sun shine on their branches. 

       Em         D               C           G 
I was little boy lost, and I was little boy blue 
      C            G             D                  G 
I am little Jack Frost but I am warm through and through 
         Em       C              G               C 
It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view 
       G            D           C 
Oh, tonight, cruel world, be forgiving 
        G           D         G 
Oh, for once in my life I am living. 

verse 2 
  G             Dsus4      C              G 
There they did stand and there they did stay 
            Em           C           G        D 
When there came a young boy who was running away 
        C            D            G          C 
From a mad world, a bad world, a world of decay 
          G           D               C        G 
And it's comfort he sought in their branches. 

       Em         D               C           G 
I was little boy lost, and I was little boy blue 
      C            G             D                  G 
I am little Jack Frost but I am warm through and through 
         Em       C              G               C 
It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view 
       G            D           C 
Oh, tonight, cruel world, be forgiving 
        G           D         G 
Oh, for once in my life I am living. 

verse 3 
 G             Dsus4      C             G 
There he found love and there he found joy 
         C             G            D                G 
And the warmth in his heart oh, it filled the young boy 
          C                 D         G          C 
And his friends taught him magic and secrets of old 
            G             D               C        G 
While the trees kept him safe with their branches 

       Em         D               C           G 
I was little boy lost, and I was little boy blue 
      C            G             D                  G 
I am little Jack Frost but I am warm through and through 
         Em       C              G               C 
It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view 
       G            D           C 
Oh, tonight, cruel world, be forgiving 
 
       Em         D               C           G 
I was little boy lost, and I was little boy blue 
      C            G             D                  G 
I am little Jack Frost but I am warm through and through 
         Em       C              G               C 
It's not easy to hide when your heart's on full view 
       G            D           C 
Oh, tonight, cruel world be forgiving 
        G           D         G 
Oh, for once in my life I am living.
