Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up,let's go, Let's look at the show,

[Chorus 2]
Gmaj7 Em
There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray
Cmaj7 Am
It'll be the perfect ending a perfect day
C F G Em E7 Am
We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop,
E Fm7 F#m7 B E
At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop.
Dm G
Pop! pop! pop!
Gmaj7 Em
There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy,
Cmaj7 Am
When they pass around the chocolate and the pumpkin pie
C F G Em E7 Am
It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives
Dm7 G7
These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives!
