Swingin' On A Star

E7                           A7
Would you like to swing on a star
D7                        G
carry moonbeams home in a jar
           E7              A7
and be better off than you are
D7                       G
or would you rather be a Mule

  G          C           G          C
A mule is an animal with long funny ears
   G              C        G
he kicks up at anything he hears
             A7            D7
His back is brawny but his brain is weak
          A7                  D7
he's just plain stupid with a stubborn streak
           G          C    G        E7
and by the way if you hate to go to school
A7           D7         G
You may grow up to be a mule

E7                           A7
Would you like to swing on a star
D7                        G
carry moonbeams home in a jar
           E7              A7
and be better off than you are
D7                       G
or would you rather be a Pig

  G         C           G           C
A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
    G           C        G
his shoes are a terrible disgrace
       A7                 D7
He has no manners when he eats his food
         A7             D7
He's fat and lazy and extremely rude
G                     C         G    E7
But if you don't care a feather or a fig
A7           D7         G
you may grow up to be a pig

E7                           A7
Would you like to swing on a star
D7                        G
carry moonbeams home in a jar
           E7              A7
and be better off than you are
D7                       G
or would you rather be a Fish

  G             C            G         C
A fish won't do anything but swim in a brook
   G               C              G
he can't write his name or read a book
            A7            D7
to fool the people is his only thought
        A7                        D7
and though he's slippery he still gets caught
             G                C           G   E7
but then if that sort of life is what you wish
A7         D7           G
you may grow up to be a fish

            E7                    A7
And all the monkeys aren't in the zoo
     D7                  G
everyday you see quite a few
       E7                 A7
so you see it's all up to you,
D7                         E7
you can be better than you are
A7             D7        G
you can be swinging on a star
