Figure Eight Music and Lyrics by Bob Dorough
Cm                        C#
Figure eight as double four,

          G                Cm
Figure four as half of eight.

                               C#
If you skate, you would be great

              G               Cm
If you could make a figure eight

           Fm               G             Cm
That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself.

Cm                            C#
One times eight is two times four.

           G                 Cm
Four times four is two times eight.

                       C#
If you skate upon thin ice, 

         G                   Cm
You'd be wise if you thought twice

Fm              G              Cm
Before you made another single move.

C                  G/B   Gm/Bb               F/A
One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16,

Fm/Ab               C/G  Am6/F#              Fm6
Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32,

    C/E        Cdim    Dm7  G    C
And five times eight is 40, you know.

C                  G/B Gm/Bb                F/A
Six times eight is 48, seven times eight is 56,

Fm/Ab               C/G  Am6/F#              Fm6
Eight times eight is 64, nine times eight is 72,

    C/E        Cdim    Dm7  G    C
And ten times eight is 80, that's true.

Em                     F      D7/F#                 G
Eleven times eight is 88, and twelve times eight is 96.

               D
Now, here's a chance to get off

         G
On your new math tricks.

           D
'Cause twelve times eight is the same as 

           G
Ten times eight plus two times eight

                  G7
80 plus 16 ... ninety-six!

C                  G/B   Gm/Bb               F/A
One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16,

Fm/Ab               C/G  Am6/F#              Fm6
Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32,

    C/E        Cdim    Dm7  G    C
And five times eight is 40, you know.

Cm                        C#
Figure eight as double four,

          G                Cm
Figure four as half of eight.

                               C#
If you skate, you would be great

              G               Cm
If you could make a figure eight

           Fm               G             Cm
That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself.

Ab                                        Fm           C
Place it on its side and it's a symbol meaning         Infinity...
