     D             D
In a puddle by the trail,

C              G
Flips his tiny tail,

C                     G
Just like a great big whale,

    A              D
But smaller than a snail.

       D             D 
He's a pollywog in a bog,

C                 G
Swims under soggy logs,

C                  G
One day he'll be a frog

A             D
Pollywog in a bog.

D            
Oh-oh-oh-oh 

D
Oh, oh oh.

C
Oh, oh, oh.

G
Oooooooooh, Oh, oh-oh,

D
Oh, oh-ho.

       D             D
It's a pollywog in a bog

C                 G
Swims under soggy logs

C                  G
One day he'll be a frog

A             D
Pollywog in a bog

    D            D
Overhead a cedar tree

C                  G
Gives the shade he needs

C                 G
Munching while he feeds

   A             D
On lily pads and weeds

D                    D
Knows not where he's from

   C                  G
Or how his life had begun

C                 G
He's not the only one

    A                          C
And soon he'll breathe through lungs

     C       G
It's hard to believe

         C           G
With the arms you'll receive

       C          A
You'll lift your head

          C         G
Above the water and breathe

      C       G
Gills shrink away

              C      A
And may there come a day

         C         G
When you reach the shore

             A        D
With a whole world to explore

G                  G 
[Ribbit, ribbit, a tadpole exhibit

       Am                C
It's a transformation no one can inhibit

  Am                      C
Amphibian change may seem strange

          D                           G
Take them gills and the tail and they all rearrange

G                         G    
Out come the legs for the jump, jump

Am                    C
Hop to the top of the stump, stump

Am                        C
Out come the legs for the jump, jump

D                     G
Hop to the top of the stump, stump]

G                G
Where the mud is deep

Am              C
Frost will soon creep

Am            C
And without a peep

  D             G             
A frog is fast asleep

         G             G
It was a pollywog in a bog

Am               C
Swam under soggy logs

Am             C
In the morning fog

G             G
