[D]the fly.
Perhaps she'll [G]die.
There was an old lady

What a [A]hog to [D]swallow a dog.

that [A]wriggled and jiggled and
[D]tickled inside her.
[G]She swallowed the spider
to catch the fly,
[A]but I don't know why she [D]swal
lowed the fly.
Perhaps she'll die.
[G]There was an old lady
who swallowed a goat,
she just [A]opened her throat
[D]and in walked the goat.
She swal[G]lowed the goat to catch the dog,
she swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird.
She swallowed the bird
to catch the spider
[A]that wriggled and jiggled and
[D]tickled inside her.
She swallowed [G]the spider
to catch the fly,
but I [A]don't know why she
swal[D]lowed the fly.
Perhaps she'll [G]die.
There was an old lady
who swallowed a [A]cow.
I don't know how she swallowed the [D]cow,
but she swallowed the [G]cow
to catch the goat.
She swallowed the goat
to catch the dog.
She swallowed the dog
to catch the cat.
She swallowed the cat
to catch the bird,

to catch the spider
that [A]wriggled and jiggled
and tickled [D]inside her.
Well, she swallowed [G]the spider
to catch the fly,
but I don't [A]know why
[D]she swallowed the fly.
Perhaps she'll [G]die.

who swallowed a horse.
She [D]died, of [G]course.
