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 Am D7 G G7

Down in the village with a broomstick in his hand, F C Dm G7 C Running here and there all around the square, saying “Catch me if you can!” ==================================================================================================================== F Em Dm G7 C

He lead them down the streets of town, right to a traffic cop, G Am D7 G G7 And he only paused one moment when he heard him holler “ Stop!” ==================================================================================================================== C F G7 C

For Frosty the Snowman had to hurry on his way, F C Dm G7 C But he waved goodbye saying, “Don‟t you cry, I‟ll be back again someday” ==================================================================================================================== Outro C G7

Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, look at Frosty go! G7 C Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, over the hills of snow
