[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ They walked and walked till the Gruffalo [G] said.
I hear a hiss in the [F#] leaves [Bm] ahead.
It's snake, said the mouse.
Why, snake, hello.
[G] Snake took one look [F#] at the Gruffalo.
[G] No crumbs, he said.
[D] Mouse!
_ [A] And off he slid to [Bm] his log pile [G] house.
You see, I [D] told you [A] so.
Amazing, said the [Bm] Gruffalo. _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
They walked some more till the Gruffalo said.
[G#]
I hear a hoot in the [G] trees ahead.
It's [Cm] owl, said the mouse.
Why, owl, [D#] hello.
[G#] Owl took one look [G] at the Gruffalo.
[G#] Oh, genie, he said.
[D#] Goodbye, little [A#] mouse.
And off he [Cm] flew to his tree top [G#] house.
You see, [D#] I told you [A#] so.
_ Astounding, said the [G] [Cm] Gruffalo. _ _
_ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ They walked some more till the Gruffalo said.
[A] I can hear feet on the [G#] path ahead.
It's [C#m] fox, said the mouse.
Why, fox, hello.
[A] Fox took one look [G#] at the _ [A] Gruffalo.
Oh, help, he said.
[E] Goodbye, little [B] mouse.
And off he [C#m] ran to his underground [A]
house.
Well, Mr.
[E] Gruffalo, can't you see?
[B]
Everyone is [C#m] afraid of me. _ _
_ [Dm] But now my tummy is beginning to rumble.
_ [C] My favorite food is _ [A#] Gruffalo crumble.
Gruffalo [A] crumble, the Gruffalo [Dm] said.
And quick as the [C#m] wind, he [Dm] turned and fled. _ _ _
[D] All was quiet in the deep, dark wood.
_ [G] The mouse found a nut, and [A] the nut [D] _ _ [G] was _ _ [D] _ good. _ _ _
