[Verse 1]
[D]Som[Bm]e thi[D]nk the world is
made for fun and frolic, and so do
I, and so do
I.
Some think it well to be all melancholic,
to [A]pine and [D]sigh, to pine and sigh.
But
[F#m]I, I lov[C#]e to spend my time
[F#]in singing [F#m]some j[C#]oyous song.
[F#m]Some joyous[C#] song.[F#m]
[D]To [A]set the air with music bravely
ringing is far from wrong.
Is [E]far from [A]wrong.
Listen, listen, echo sound afar.
Listen, listen, echo sound [D]afar.
Tra -la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la [Bm]-la, tra -la -la [F#]-la,
tra -la -la [Bm]-la.
Let [G]the sound of [D]our tra -la -la
[A]-la, tra -la -la [D]-la
Some say it's wrong to set
the beat of dancing
But not so I
And [A]not [D]so I
Some say that I should
keep from hardly glancing
Upon [A]the [D]slide
But [A]not so [D]I
[F#m]But, o[C#]h, to me the
Maisie dance is charming
Di[F#m]vinely [C#]sweet[F#m], divinely sweet.
And [A]surely [E]there is [A]nothing as alarming
In [E]nimble [A]feet, in nimble feet.
Listen, listen, echo sound afar.
Listen, listen, echo sound [D]afar.
Tra -la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la [Bm]-la, tra
-la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la [Bm]-la.
[G]Echo sound [D]afar,
tra -la -la [Em]-la, tra [A]-la -la [D]-la.
For me, too strange that some would
take to sighing and like it well
And like it well
For me, I have not thought it worth the trying,
so [A]cannot [D]tell
So cannot tell
With [F#m]laugh and [C#]dance and song the day soon [F#]passes,
full [C#]soon is gone
Full soon [F#]is gone
[F#m]For mirth [A]was made for
joyous lads and lassies
To [E]call their [A]own, to [E]call [A]their own
Listen, listen, echo sound afar
Listen, listen, echo sound [D]afar
Tra -la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la -la, tra
[Bm]-la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la [Bm]-la
[G]Echo sound [D]afar, tra -la -la
[A]-la, tra -la -la [D]-la[A]
Listen, listen, heckle sound afar.
Listen, listen, heckle sound [D]afar.
Tra -la -la [F#]-la, tra -la -la -la,
tra -la -la -la, tra -la -la [Bm]-la.
[G]Heckle sound [D]afar, tra -la -la [A]-la, tra -la -la [D]-la.
