From the album Scattered [Intro] D [Verse 1]
D                                           G
Snowball could jump higher than any horse around

    A                                   D
He jumped over a car, he jumped over a cow

     A                                D
And ten spotted ponies standing on a house
[Verse 2]
     D                                       G
Sometimes he went so high that when he came down

             A                                   D
There were flowers on his legs from inside the clouds

     A                                 Bm
But bad children would steal them and sell them downtown
[Chorus]
  D                            G
Snowball, Snowball, born in spring

  A                                                  D
People say he jumped high enough to hear the angels sing

[Solo]
   D                             G    A                    D

[Verse 3]
D                                           G
As the years flew by, his legs started to creak

        A                                      D
He was fitted with spectacles and new plastic teeth

          A                              Bm
But the crowd still whispered about the glue factory
[Verse 4]
      D                                      G
One rainy day he fell while jumping over a bridge

       A                                              D
Those bad children came running to poke at him with sticks

       A                        Bm           
So he jumped up again with a scream and a kick
[Outro]
  D                                    G
Snowball, Snowball, jumped up to the clouds

  A                                          D
People say he jumped so high, he never came down

  A                                          D
People say he jumped so high, he never came down
