          C                   G                       Am7       D7     G

   G                                C                G
   Fros-ty the snow-man    Knew the sun was hot that day

   Run-ning here and there all a-round the square    Say-ing catch me if you can

        And he on-ly paused a mo-ment when he heard him hol-ler | stop! -     |

   G                              C             G
4. Fros-ty the snow-man    Had to hur-ry on his way
          C                      G         E7             Am7    D7        G
   But he waved good-bye say-ing Don't you cry    I'll be back a-gain some day

       G

                          G
       Ov-er the hills of snow

Notes:

  • Metronome set to 80 bpm (𝅗𝅥): The beat is marked on the 1st and 3rd quarter notes of each bar, aligning with the half note (minim) value indicated by the symbol. This is especially useful for those using a metronome or click track.
  • You can set the metronome at 160 bpm to play on every beat, but it sounds a little busy... the choice is yours.
  • In the Intro, the xylophone comes in on the 4th beat of the first bar. There are 3 crotchet rests which indicate 3 beats of rest, then 2 eighth-notes on 4& (G, G#) leading into the second bar. The guitar starts on the second bar, although you can play the leading notes of G & G# on the 4& of the first bar if you wish... see chart.
  • This song is very simple to play and beginners will have fun with this one!
