 There's ase at the top of a tree
             F           Bb       A
 There's ase at the top of a tree
          Dm              C
 In these there's a room
          F              Bb
 In the room there's a chair
        F             Bb

 There's a nose at the end of a snout
       C            C              F
 Of a with his head out the window
      Bb            C     Bb           C
 Of a car that's driving away from a tree
             F          Bb
 And at the top of the tree
              F                Bb
 There's ase, and in these
            F                Bb
 There's a room, and in the room
            F                 Bb
 There's a chair, and in the chair is
 F       Dm       Bb         C      F
 Y - o - o - o - o - o - o - o - o -u

 There's a plan to eat these
          F         Bb           A
 In the mind of a mouse in the woods
          Bb            C          Bb             C
 And the mouse in the woods has a smell that's detected
        Bb           C        Bb         C
 By the nose at the end of a snout of a
          F           Bb             F        Bb
 And the has his head out the window of a car
         F         Bb    F           Bb
 And the car is driving away from a tree
             F         Bb
 And at the top of the tree
             F                Bb
 There's ase, and in these
            F                Bb
 There's a room, and in the room
             F                 Bb
 There's a chair, and in the chair is
 F       Dm       Bb         C      F
 Y - o - o - o - o - o - o - o - o -u


           C         C            F
 There are no more potato chips left
          C    C           F
 In thety bag in your hand
             Bb      C           Bb    C
 And the crumpling sound of thety bag
            Bb       C                Bb       C
 Makes the mice get mad and when the mice get mad
     Bb          C     Bb        C
 It leads to a plan to eat these
           Bb          C         Bb            C
 And the plans in the mind of a mouse in the woods
           Bb           C          Bb              C
 And the mouse in the woods has a smell that's detected
         Bb          C        Bb         C
 By the nose at the end of a snout of a
          F           Bb            F         Bb
 And the has his head out the window of a car
          F         Bb        F      Bb
 And the car is driving away from a tree
             F          Bb
 And at the top of the tree
             F                 Bb
 There's ase, and in these
             F               Bb
 There's a room, and in the room
             F                Bb
 There's a chair, and in the chair is
 F       Dm       Bb         C      F
 Y - o - o - o - o - o - o - o - o -u


           C              C         F
 And the reason there are no more chips
          C    C           F
 In thety bag in your hand
                Bb      C            Bb    C
 Is that the crumpling sound of thety bag
            Bb       C          Bb         C
 Makes the mice get mad, which leads to a plan
    Bb       C          Bb       C
 To eat these, but just in time
     Bb      C       Bb           C
 The arrives to give to the mouse
        F    Bb              F           Bb
 The potato chips that you took from the bag
      F          Bb        F           Bb
 And gave to the to deliver to the mouse
          F             Bb
 So the mouse would not eat
 F       Dm       Bb         C      F
