[Intro 1]
[G]
[Em][Am][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]A-tisket, a-tasket
A brown and yellow basket
[Am]I send a let[D]ter to [Am]my mommy
On [D]the way [G]I dropped it

[Verse 2]
I dropped it, [G]I dropped it
Yes, on the way I dropped it
[Am]A little gir[D]lie pi[Am]cked it up
And put it [D]in her pock[G]et
She was truckin' [C]on

[Verse 3]
down the avenue
[G]But not a single thing to do
She [Am]went peck, [C]peck,
peckin' all around
[G]When she spied [Am]it on the ground
[D]She took

[Verse 4]
[G]it, she took it
My little yellow basket
[Am]And if she doesn[D]'t bring i[Am]t back
I think that I [D]will [G]die

[Interlude 1]
[Em][Am][G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[G]A-tisket, a-tasket
[Eb]I lo[G]st yellow basket
[Eb]And [G]if that girlie d[C]on't return [D]it
[C]Don't know [Eb]what [G]I'll do

[Verse 6]
Oh [G]dear, [Em]I wonde[Am]r wher[G]e
my basket [Em]can [G]be
[D](So[G]do we, so do we, so do we,
so do we, so [Am]do we[G])[D][G]
[Em]Oh gee, [G]I wish that little girl I could see[Am]
[G](So do we, so do we, so do we,
so do we, so do we)
Oh, [C]why was I so careless
with that [G]basket of mine
That [C]itty-bitty basket basket
was [Am]a joy of [Eb]mine[D][G]

[Verse 7]
A-tisket, [G]a-tasket
I lost my yellow basket
Won't someone [D]help me
find my [G]bas[D]ket
And make me happy [G]again, again
(Was it [Em]green?) no

[Verse 8]
no no no
[G](Was it red?) no no no no
(Was it blue?) no no no no
Just a [Am]little yellow basket
[G]

[Verse 9]
A little yellow basket
