Verse 1
G 
C 
The fox went out on a chilly night,
G 
Prayed for the moon to give him light,
C 
F 
He'd many a mile to go that night,
C 
G 
C 
Before he reached the town -o,
G 
C 
town -o, town -o,
F 
C 
He'd many a mile to go that night,
G 
C 
Before he reached the town -o,
Well he ran till he came
to a great big bend,
G 
The ducks and the geese were put there,
C 
Said, a couple of you will
F 
grease my chin
C 
G 
C 
Before I leave this town -o,
G 
C 
town -o, town -o
F 
C 
A couple of you will grease my chin
G 
C 
Before I  leave this town -o
Then he grabbed the gray
goose by the neck
G 
Slung the little one over his back
C 
F 
And he didn't mind their quack,
quack, quack
C 
G 
C 
And the legs all dangling down -o,
G 
C 
down -o, down -o
F 
C 
So he didn't mind their quack, quack,
quack
G 
C 
And the legs all dangling down,
Well, the farmer's wife jumped out of bed
Out of the window she
G 
cocked her head
C 
Cryin' John, John,
F 
the gray goose is gone
C 
G 
C 
And the fox is on the town, oh
G 
C 
Town, oh, town, oh
F 
C 
John, John, the gray goose is gone
G 
C 
And the fox is on the town,
G 
C 
F 
oh
C 
G 
C 
G 
C 
F 
C 
G 
C 
Well the farmer went to the top of the hill
G 
Blew his horn both loud and shrill
C 
The fox he said,
F 
I'd better flee with my kill
C 
G 
C 
For they'll soon be on my trail -o,
G 
C 
trail -o, trail -o
F 
So the fox, he said,
C 
I'd better flee with my kill,
G 
C 
for they'll soon be on my trail,
He ran till he came to his cozy den,
G 
there were the little ones, eight, nine, ten
C 
They said, Daddy,
F 
you'd better go back again,
C 
G 
C 
cause it must be a mighty fine town, oh
G 
C 
Town, oh, town, oh
F 
They said, Daddy,
C 
you'd better go back again,
G 
C 
cause it must be a mighty fine town, oh
And the fox and his wife
without any strife
G 
Cut up the goose with fork and knife
C 
F 
They never had such a supper in their life
C 
G 
C 
The little ones chewed on the bonzo,
G 
C 
bonzo, bonzo
F 
They never had such a
C 
supper in their life
G 
C 
And the little ones chewed on the bonzo
Well the fox went out on a chilly night
G 
Prayed for the moon to give him light
C 
F 
Ain't many a mile to go that night
C 
G 
C 
before we reach the town -o,
G 
C 
town -o, town -o
F 
C 
Ain't many a mile to go that night
G 
C 
before we reach the town -o
