           G 
Big blue eyes 
         D 
Pointy nose

Chasing mice 
             Em 
And digging holes

Tiny paws 
        D 
Up the hill 
     Am                    Em 
Suddenly you're standing still 

             G 
Your fur is red 
         D 
So beautiful 
         Am         Em 
Like an angel in disguise 
            G 
But if you meet
