Capo 3
In a [D]puddle by the [D]trail,
[C]Flips his tiny [G]tail,
[C]Just like a great big [G]whale,
But [A]smaller than a [D]snail.
He's a [D]pollywog in a [D]bog,
[C]Swims under soggy [G]logs,
[C]One day he'll be a [G]frog
[A]Pollywog in a [D]bog.
[D]Oh-oh-oh-oh
[D]Oh, oh oh.
[C]Oh, oh, oh.
[G]Oooooooooh, Oh, oh-oh,
[D]Oh, oh-ho.
It's a [D]pollywog in a [D]bog
[C]Swims under soggy [G]logs
[C]One day he'll be a [G]frog
[A]Pollywog in a [D]bog
Over[D]head a cedar [D]tree
[C]Gives the shade he [G]needs
[C]Munching while he [G]feeds
On [A]lily pads and [D]weeds
[D]Knows not where he's [D]from
Or [C]how his life had be[G]gun
[C]He's not the only [G]one
And [A]soon he'll breathe through [C]lungs
It's [C]hard to [G]believe
With the [C]arms you'll [G]receive
You'll [C]lift your h[A]ead
Above the [C]water and [G]breathe
Gills [C]shrink a[G]way
And may there [C]come a [A]day
When you [C]reach the [G]shore
With a whole [A]world to [D]explore
[G](Ribbit, ribbit, a [G]tadpole exhibit
It's a [Am]transformation no [C]one can inhibit
Am[Am]phibian change may seem [C]strange
Take them [D]gills and the tail and they [G]all rearrange
[G]Out come the legs for the [G]jump, jump
[Am]Hop to the top of the [C]stump, stump
[Am]Out come the legs for the [C]jump, jump
[D]Hop to the top of the [G]stump, stump)
[G]Where the mud is [G]deep
[Am]Frost will soon [C]creep
[Am]And without a [C]peep
A [D]frog is fast a[G]sleep
It was a [G]pollywog in a [G]bog
[Am]Swam under soggy [C]logs
[Am]In the morning [C]fog
