Im A Little Teapot Tab par Clarence Z. Kelley

[Verse 1]
G                      Cadd9         G
Two little dishes on a kitchen table sat.
Cadd9            G            D           G
Each thought the other was so useless and flat.
G                                     Cadd9       G
While they argued back and forth ’til late in the night,
Cadd9               G                  D       G
The teapot standing by would sing with endless delight–
 
[Chorus 1]
G                       Cadd9     G
Oh, I’m a little teapot short and stout.
Cadd9      G       D          G
Here is my handle, here is my spout.
G                      Cadd9     G
When I get all steamed up then I shout–
Cadd9       N.C.  D       G
Just tip me over, pour me out.
 
[Chorus 2]
G                 Cadd9    G
I’m a very clever pot it’s true
Cadd9      G         D          G
Here’s an example of what I can do.
G                      Cadd9     G
I can change my handle and my spout
Cadd9     N.C. D       G
To tip me over pour me out.
 
[Bridge]
Em             G         Em                  D
Polly, put the kettle on and we’ll have some tea,
A               D
Grandma used to sing.
Em                 G         Em                 D
Oh, since then our taste has changed in so many ways,
A                 D
Yet to the pot we cling.
 
[Chorus 3]
G                       Cadd9     G
Oh, I’m a little teapot short and stout.
Cadd9      G       D          G
Here is my handle, here is my spout.
G                      Cadd9     G
I can change my handle or my spout–
Cadd9       N.C.  D       G
Just tip me over, pour me out.
