Verse 1
Okay, (D major) it's story time now.
Are you ready, boys and girls?
Yeah!
(B minor) Okay, be (D major) quiet now (B minor) because
here goes.
I'm going to (D major) tell this story.
Be good.
I want to hear the story of that Goldilocks.
(B minor) No, I'm going to (D major) tell you the (B minor) story
of the storybook ball.
(D major) Are you ready? Yeah!
One, two, (B minor) three. (D major)
(B minor) Up in Mother Goose's (F sharp major) book,
up in the (B minor) nursery,
Simple Simon said, (F sharp major) feeling sad, (B minor)
Said, (E minor) Peter Piper's (D major) daughter, so am (E minor) I,
I think we (D major) ought to do
Something (C sharp major) that'll make
the kitties glad. (F sharp major)
Smarty, (B minor) Smarty said,
I (F sharp major) think we'll have a (B minor) party,
And he called on the old
(F sharp major) woman in the (B minor) shoe.
Now the (E minor) cat, he brought his (D major) fiddle,
and he (E minor) played,
I diddle, (D major) diddle, and what (C sharp major) happened then,
I'm gonna tell (A major) to (F sharp major) you. (A major)
Little (D major) Jackie Horner
eating pie up in the corner,
sucking his thumb, pulled out a plum.
Little Missy Muffet sitting on her tuffet,
and she (A major) said, yum, yum,
won't you give me some?
Georgie Porgie eating pudding and pie,
he made (D major) Mary quite contrary,
and he (B major) made her cry.
Little (E major) Bo Peep lost her sheep
and couldn't (A major) find them
All the tales behind them
(D major) Peter Peter Pumpkin
Eater had a wife
And couldn't keep her at
the ball in the hall
Humpty Dumpty met her and she said
You better let me help you (G major) off that wall
Before you fall
Oh King Cole that merry (A flatdim) old soul
(C sharp major) Helped (D major) old Mother Hubbard
blow his (B major) big bank roll
Buying (E major) lollipops and pretties for the (A major) kiddies
At the Storybook Ball (D major)
Doodly oopy doo (G major)
(A flatdim)
(D major) (A major) (D major) (B major) (E major)
(A major) (D major)
They (B minor) danced and danced
till early (F sharp major) in the (B minor) morning
They really didn't know just when to stop
So (E minor) as the day was (D major) dawning
and the (E minor) kitties all were (D major) yawning
They found (C sharp major) out the mouse
had run up in the (F sharp major) clock
Now (B minor) Jack be nimble,
Jack be quick he started,
and over that big candlestick he flew.
And (E minor) little Tommy Tuck (D major) er
started singing (E minor) for his (D major) supper,
and so (C sharp major) boy Blue said,
gee I'm hungry (F sharp major) too. (A major)
Peter (D major) Piper picked a peck of
pickled peppers,
brought them to the ball,
and that's not all.
Tom Tom the Piper's son, he stole a pig
and away he run through (A major) the hall.
What a squall!
Molly put the kettle on,
but tea got cold.
They (D major) had to eat the (A major) porridge
(D major) that was (B major) nine days old.
Jack (E major) fell down and broke his crown
and spilled the (A major) water, he had an order
Four (D major) and twenty blackbirds
were baking in a pie
and they refused to sing anything
Wasn't that an awful way
for little birds to act
before the (G major) queen and king?
Such a terrible thing,
said the knave and the king
to the (A flatdim) queen of hearts
Come (D major) on, hurry (A major) up (D major) honey,
(B major) bring some tarts, so she (E major) did
And the (A major) kids had a (D major) picnic
at the storybook mall, (B major) so she (E major) did
And the kids had a (A major) picnic
at the Storybook Mall. (D major)
Doodly -oopy -doo. (D major)
